In light of the stainless watches seliing at a premium, I am contemplating trading in my black Daytona for the White Gold Ceramic Daytona 116519LN.
I this a trade i should consider? I also have a white face daytona which i will keep!
Thanks

TonyYu · 8 October 2018, 10:11 AM

Everyday new high. If purely in light of earn a premium I will just hold it, and at the end it is a beautiful piece.

However, in reality assuming you love the new WG piece more, so just do what you like!

Shaka2015 · 8 October 2018, 10:19 AM

Would trade the white dial Daytona? That way you will have a more versatile collection IMHO

Personally I would do it, take advantage of the crazy times we live in and get the PM.

Lester206 · 8 October 2018, 10:47 AM

The white gold Daytona is a great watch that I would prefer over a ceramic SS. I would move one of yours.

Is it a straight trade or do you have to put money in the deal? For a straight trade I would do it absolutely.

Chadridv · 8 October 2018, 10:51 AM

SS value at the moment is great, yes. But you're still looking at adding $8k-10k to make the deal.

Not saying you shouldn't do it. The 116519 is amazing!

Here are some pics...

gatsbie69 · 8 October 2018, 11:00 AM

the black daytona looks great on the oyster flex! i will have to track one down!

Black leather also look great on 116500LN, I did it for myself.

huncho · 8 October 2018, 11:20 AM

i would do it

brandrea · 8 October 2018, 11:32 AM

I’d keep what you have.

sensui · 8 October 2018, 11:53 AM

I'd take the steel panda dial on white golds over any of the stainless modern Daytonas.

red1108nyc · 8 October 2018, 02:27 PM

WG panda dial is the easy choice.

gatsbie69 · 9 October 2018, 12:53 AM

would you trade the black stainless daytona and a black sub with date for the White Gold Ceramic Daytona 116519LN?

Fredbear · 9 October 2018, 12:58 AM

Definitely,
I have both the Daytona white face ss and wg oysterflex and they compliment each other very well as they wear very different.

amilch · 9 October 2018, 01:03 AM

I would do it.

watchwatcher · 9 October 2018, 01:06 AM

Yes, I believe I would do that one. But only if adding the WG is totally out of the question as opposed to flipping. Good luck,

RTG · 9 October 2018, 01:16 AM

I think kings of old had it right. Use the iron to collect gold!

Bought three Daytona for my wife. She only wears the rose gold. In pictures the crisp black/white/SS stands out. In reality though gold just looks better on the flesh. The human eye is drawn to the warmth of gold, even white gold. It's in our DNA.

m j b · 9 October 2018, 01:34 AM

Nice collection there RTG.

OP, I'd look at it as two different transactions. Do you want to sell the watch and get the current market premium? If so, fine, do that.

Do you want to buy the WG watch at current market discounts? If so, fine, do that.

If yes to both, then work out a good trade.

KBM · 9 October 2018, 02:10 AM

I would, but for the 116509.

gatsbie69 · 9 October 2018, 06:15 AM

thanks

AK797 · 9 October 2018, 06:23 AM

For sure if you have a white D500 as well.

gatsbie69 · 9 October 2018, 06:27 AM

even trade would include black stainless sub with date,

RichM · 9 October 2018, 06:52 AM

I would and I did only I flipped a white dial DaytonaC for the 116519LN. Chad’s photos tell it all.

gatsbie69 · 9 October 2018, 10:25 AM

nice

Big C on the assist! Ive contemplated this move as well. It’s a no for me personally.

gatsbie69 · 9 October 2018, 11:10 AM

it would look great on a white face daytona

BakerView · 9 October 2018, 11:39 AM

I'm with RTG...
The gold just has a warmth about it. A subtle statement you are comfortable in your decision in spite of the scarcity of SS.

drmizzou · 9 October 2018, 12:19 PM

Even selling your SS Daytona, you may still have a tough time getting a 116519 from an AD as even these have lengthy waiting lists! In the end, I ended up moving a few pieces to fund the WG 116519 and don’t regret it but still do wish I had the d500 white.

TimeToWatch · 9 October 2018, 12:57 PM

Do it! I love my 116519LN, it’s my favorite Rolex. As previously mentioned, I’ve heard through a number of ADs as well as through word of mouth that these are hard to come by at the moment. Obviously no problem through greys, but they aren’t discounting much off list. I think a lot of people are taking the upsale given the SS shortage.
