I've been offered the opportunity to trade my ROO Panda + a little cash for the newer black/red ROO 26470. Is this a wise move? Would you ?

TIA for the opinions. They are always appreciated.

Manofsteelpt · 31 January 2015, 12:23 AM

I would, as long as the $$$ is right. If its too much, then keep your Panda.

Muzz · 31 January 2015, 12:39 AM

Awesome watch, nice back (sapphire), but you will be giving up the deployant for a tang.

I currently have one (it will be not going anywhere) but will be adding a Panda like yours this year for even more versatility to the trio I already have.

Also, the new panda case has nicer angles, specifically around the crown, was a super nice touch!

Manofsteelpt · 31 January 2015, 12:49 AM

There you have it... BOTH! Lol

raclaims · 31 January 2015, 12:52 AM

Don't think you can really lose either way but to me the panda is a classic and I'm keeping mine.

AK797 · 31 January 2015, 12:53 AM

Tough one, I do like the Panda but maybe you feel it's time for a change and a spice up of the collection.

csi-n · 31 January 2015, 01:34 AM

I really like the updates that the new models had received, I actually even prefer the tang to the deployant. So I would really be tempted to make the exchange but it would depend on what the extra cash amount is. Nevertheless, a tough choice.

For me, the new Grey ROO all the way.

AMCK87 · 31 January 2015, 03:51 AM

I think the new Red/Black is the way to go, as long as the $$'s make cents.

VICI · 31 January 2015, 07:42 AM

Depends what serial yours is and how much "little cash" is involved.

yyzpam · 31 January 2015, 10:02 AM

Mine is an H. Has a year left on warranty. And we are talking round $3k (so maybe not THAT little )

Sirowhite · 31 January 2015, 11:09 AM

Stay at the panda!

Islatate · 31 January 2015, 12:46 PM

If it's only 3k on top of a pre-owned "H" serial Panda for a bnib Novelty black/red, it's a no brainer!

This! The new models are so much better overall too.

Agreed. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Cheers.

That would be a great deal, I have a black themes g-serial, would do that swap in a heartbeat.

Hairdude1 · 31 January 2015, 05:32 PM

Go with your gut, if you love the Panda no, however if you really want it do it!

rolexfan168 · 1 February 2015, 12:50 PM

good deal!

DaveBecker · 1 February 2015, 03:58 PM

I would definitely do it for $3k.

VICI · 1 February 2015, 04:05 PM

Is your panda w a bracelet or just strap?

Both actually as it came on the bracelet and I have the F1 strap with AP smaller pin buckle for it. I would be keeping the F1 strap and buckle and would be getting a bracelet with the newer piece as well

So basically if you are looking at around $19k for the new one - yours is being valued at $16-16.5k... Do you think you can sell yours for more or buy the new one for that price.

That's the calculation.

ec00421 · 1 February 2015, 07:45 PM

I prefer the dial on the classic panda. so I would stick to it :)

rocketiii · 2 February 2015, 06:15 AM

Classic Panda espicially if with bracelet

Islatate · 3 February 2015, 02:44 AM

A pre-owned "H" serial classic Panda on bracelet + $3k for a bnib "i" serial Novelty black/red on bracelet, is a fantastic deal. Unbeatable, really. Assuming the bracelet on the Novelty black/red is original AP and new + unworn.
