bruce79 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 I recently took in a 111i on trade and am now considering trading it for a 000K...just love the base painted dial. My 111 is in excellent shape with some scratches and a ding or two. The 000 is in Mint condition and is only 6 months old. Even though the 111 has a better movement and retails for a bit higher, would you consider this trade to be even? The 111 is over two years old and runs great, just regulated to +3 seconds. I would say so but I just wanted to bounce it off the gen owners here. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Not quite an even trade IMHO, assuming both have papers, etc. If the scratches can be cape codded out, most certainly do so too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce79 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Hey Chief, if not an even trade, which do you suppose would be the lesser? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce79 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 It's a tough call because the pre-owned market is so soft right now. I have seen 111i go from $3500-$4000 and 000k series go from $3300 to $3800. The 000 is no doubt in better cosmetic condition, has 1.5 years left on the warranty, 1 owner, and comes with everything! Mine is a couple years old, has some dings & scratches, no outer box/polishing cloth. As you know, selling a gen nowadays is tough. I know the 111 retails for more but on the used market, with the above watches in mind...it's tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhitesox Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Personally I would keep this watch J and get yourself a nice rep base to sooth the itch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
