Trying to decide if I should trade my black bay ETA BBN plus $2600 (for a 214270 full kit from oct 2019)

I like these watches both equally. Can’t rlly decide

If you don’t do it, I will.

Danny83 · 10 February 2020, 01:37 PM

Im a big fan of the 79220N but that is a good deal. Seems like they are paying you really well for the Tudor. I would just add but......

sickened1 · 10 February 2020, 01:38 PM

I wouldn't. They can coexist.

Doc Savage · 10 February 2020, 02:43 PM

Jump on this deal NOW!

kieselguhr · 10 February 2020, 03:12 PM

I wouldn’t trade. That’s because I like to keep what I already have.

I would just add whatever watch I wanted to the collection.

A current production model exp I is much more available than a ETA BBN.

jonny deacon · 10 February 2020, 03:20 PM

indeed sir, and immediately

Unfortunately I don’t have the means to add. And with the SS Rolex market being as crazy as it has been, jumping on a good deal to acquire a piece from the SS sport line I’ve been eyeing for a while makes me think of going this direction.

If I had the means I’d def add instead of trade

However You make a great point and I appreciate your response

No... ok its a Rolex, but a current production everyday model. Don't get me wrong, its an iconic watch... BUT... the BBN ETA was only produced for around 4 / 5 months and was the last BB to have the ETA movement. This in its own right is a bit of watch / Tudor history.

Depends if you want a Rolex, because its a Rolex... or want something a bit more 'special'

Explorer !!!

Excellent choice !!!

TickTockChuck · 11 February 2020, 09:24 AM

I have both the Explorer and BBN-ETA and can understand the preference for the Explorer due to it's more svelte size and shape plus the Rolex quality. Enjoy your Explorer in good health. Cheers!

mgd55 · 11 February 2020, 09:46 AM

Welcome to the club! I’ve enjoyed wearing mine since getting it last spring—very comfortable and versatile. I think you made a smart move for this one

Enjoy it and wear it in good health, sir

Congratulations!

Trading up is almost always a good idea. Especially if you are trading a number of watches that you don't appreciate that much, for one that you will love so much more.

Smart move!!!
