Going from vintage to modern Rolex
Discussion
Good Evening,
12 months ago I was lucky enough to pick up a very very nice 1987 5513 with all the boxes, papers and tags you could wish for (and service history!). In anyones eyes that would be an absolute winner and a watch to stick with for life.
However, I have found my eyes gazing towards the new ceramic pieces. Namely the GMT Master II with black bezel and standard ceramic Sub. I also have a hankering for a black faced Explorer 2.
I cannot justify getting a second Rolex at this point so I would need to sell or trade the 5513 to make the move. Are there people that have modern pieces and would fancy going for a more vintage piece? Would I be best off selling and then re-buying?
Where is the best place to sell such a piece? I am on TZ but do not have the required post count.
