Flipping Breitling & Panerai for Daytona
I've decided to sell my Breitling Montbrillant Datora (done for £3000) and my Panerai PAM050 (selling it for £3000), to buy a SS Daytona, V, G or Random serial - I used to have one with a black dial but sold it a couple of years back to help fund a new house purchase.
I miss the watch so am prepared to sell 2 nice watches for 1 outstanding watch, I'll probably go for black again as I have a vintage datejust with white dial, your thoughts??

Well for me two watches for one IMHO is not always the best way to go, but its your watches so go ahead if you must.

Very difficult to do. Especially since I'm not a big SS Daytona fan.

Do it, no question. Black Daytona to go with your white DJ.

I wouldn't do it. You will then have 2 Rolexes - surely it is better to have variety and a diverse range of brands?

I love the GMT and Subs but having one of those instead of a Daytona isn't gonna cut the mustard with me, I'm definitely going ahead with this trade.

Typing this while wearing my Daytona to say that, if you're a Daytona fan, you won't regret it. Obviously, you've lost the love for the other watches you sold/are selling, so go for it.
I've had my Daytona for about a month and I'm loving it more every day. |

I'd do the same, and pick the black dial as well because of your DJ dial color.

Yes...easy choice for me. I'm a fan of the Daytona and not really a fan of the other two. Do what feels right to you.
