·2019 has been a very content year for me in terms of watch collecting. So content that I rarely look at the for sale section here on OF or anywhere for that matter. Being a collector I always have a couple of watches on my wish list, but I haven’t been actively pursuing, because I’m completely satisfied with the state of my rotation.. But recently one of those watches on my list, the Nautilus 5990 came up for sale at a really good price.
Now the dilemma is I have a few watches I could use as a trade for the Patek. Watches at one point in time I considered grails, but if I’m being honest don’t get the wrist time they deserve. The first that fits this category is the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy and the other being the Patek 5164. I wear the 5164 more for nicer family moments and I haven’t figured out why Snoopy gets little wrist, because I absolutely love both watches.
I would also have to add my Rolex Daytona 116500 to the deal. I do wear this watch a lot but feel if I miss it down the road, I could add it back to the collection at retail. Not an option with the other two.
What you make this trade? All opinions are welcomed and appreciated.
