Should i part ex my Rolex seadweller 16610 for GMT
Discussion
I have a hankering for a bit of colour on my watch and cant decide on whether to part ex for the new GMT master II BLNR or a circa 2002 GMT master II Pepsi.
Is this a silly move as I do love my seadweller as its a bit beefier than the GMT's. But ive had it for 10 years now so maybe time for a change.

If you can afford to I'd hang onto the SD, the good thing about steel Rolex are that they tend not to depreciate over time.
This is good advice.However if you want to trade, do what you want. I had a "coke" bezel GMT II and traded it for my BLNR.
More recently I traded two watches (a newer Seadweller 4000 and a Sub 16610LV) for a 116619LB Sub "smurF" and am very happy with the trade.
Own both rather than one or the other!
I have a 2002 Coke 16710 but would never sell it or trade it in for the BLNR.
Values seem to be shooting up (nearly £6k on WF without papers!)
I'd rather buy the BLNR outright. Not prepared to pay over list tho. WF are racking them up to £7k

I bought a Pepsi GMT recently for all the reasons you give.
It's a beautiful watch, and I've been wearing it for the last month.
I met a friend with an SD last week, and am so glad I didn't px it.
Putting it on this morning, the SD is so much more chunky.
The proud crystal just stands out.
Keep the Dweller.
Get finance on a GMT.
You won't regret it
Money in the bank.

I did enquire about a part ex here

They offered my 4K on mine, without service but all documents. Which isn't bad considering it has light scratches and has never been serviced in 11 years of ownership.
But £6150 for a GMT II, you can see the original receipt in picture for £2350!
They have another one at £4650 without papers, can papers demand another £1500!
