Part ex Daytona for AP
Discussion
As per the title.
I bought a Rolex Daytona earlier in the year and although its a nice watch feel its just a tiny bit 'common'. I seem to see one on every other wrist, especially on women.
Ideally I'd like to part exchange it for a AP Royal Oak ref. 15300. Any idea as to what I'd be offered. It's two years old and in super condition.

The AP Royal Oak is a goppingly ugly watch. It's octagonal FFS, and the octagon has never at any point in history been cool. Never will be.
But as you appear to have more money than sense, your Daytona is worth about £500. I can pay cash, where and when suits you?
It's okay, don't thank me.

A nicely made watch without a doubt, but as with most of the Gérald Genta's designs it is ugly.
But if you think that appreciating that design marks you out as a man of class and taste be my guest.

I'd say it's the Submariner, quintessential Rolex, easily recognisable and readily available from an AD
It seems to be around where I've worked in London the last couple of years: Belgravia and Moorgate. It's all personal taste of course but I find all Rolex's a tad boring. I'd go AP every time.I'd say it's the Submariner, quintessential Rolex, easily recognisable and readily available from an AD
d look 
Are you only interested in new looking watches? Does it have to be in the Daytona, AP, Nautilus recognisable at a glance status symbol bracket?
I'm idly hunting for a perfectly battered and faded Submariner at the moment as blingy new stuff is a bit boring and I'm not into moon-phase wrist clocks and the like.

They're not really status symbols though are they? I'd wager that any sub (battered or not) would be more recognisable than an AP RO/PP Nautilus. Additionally I'd suggest that watches and cars are no longer always signifiers of success/riches, any body can pick up them up on the drip nowadays.I'm idly hunting for a perfectly battered and faded Submariner at the moment as blingy new stuff is a bit boring and I'm not into moon-phase wrist clocks and the like.
