5100j
I have a yellow gold with black dial aquanuat that I always considered rare but now may trade that instead with a lot more money of course for the 5100 and keep the 5040. I like the aquanaut but do feel a little strange with the yellow gold when I am wearing the aquanaut in very casual settings or at the health club working out or swimming. I usually wear my daytona for those occassions but will sometimes wear the aquanaut. I really like the rectangular shapes and the 5100 does speak to me so i think the aquanaut may have to go now.
5040r or 5100j
I currently have a 5040 rose in my collection and am considering a trade for a 5100J with another collector. Those that have been involved in watch collecting for some time would you make the trade of a 5040r for a 5100j? I like them both but because I ha...
"Don't compare apples with oranges"
These two watches are totally different and I don't think you can compare those with each others. If I should speculate, probably 5100 will keep its value better because it's rarer. However, Patek can start to use the same movement for a new reference so ...
Very good Advice Kari
The road to speculation doesn't lead to happiness , certainly didn't in my case at least. Regards Darma This message has been edited by darma on 2012-01-08 22:52:23 This message has been edited by darma on 2012-01-08 22:52:52
5040 vs. 5100 apples and oranges
Thanks, Kari and that is basically my thinking as well. I like them both and am drawn to the tonneau or rectangular shapes. I already have another perpetual and 5134 and aquanaut and nautilus in my patek collection. I like them both but appreciate the leg...
More value on the long run
is pure speculation. If somebody would know that a watch has a high value in the future, then this value would be discounted to NPV already now. I guess neither 5040 or 5100 is highly demanded with premium prices at the moment. This means that it's unlike...
5100j is rarer
but I like them both so I would go for both,(and maybe not tell my wife?, no that won,t work)

5100 !
I consider the 5100 as one of the most beautiful watch ever made in a rectangular shape (with the 5101, but it is another budget !). As I less appreciate the tonneau shape, I would of course make this trade. But (there is a "but"), the yellow gold version...
