[aquanaut] should I trade my 5167a for the japan blue 5066?
Thinking about making a trade and could use some advice. Should I trade my 5167A for a vintage 5066A Japan blue dial Aquanaut? The 5066A is smaller at 36mm, so it would have less wrist presence on my slightly larger than 7inch wrist, but that blue dial is stunning and super rare. Both pieces are iconic in their own right, but the 5066A has that vintage charm and uniqueness that’s hard to ignore. That blue is also my favorite color. On the flip side, the 5167A has attractive modern proportions and a versatile design that makes it a great everyday wear.
If the value is about equal, is it worth trading modern practicality for a vintage and very limited piece? I know I’m a lucky guy to even be considering this question, but there’s no better place to be asking it than on this Patek subreddit. What do you think?
