Interesting trade. Could actually be a nice “genteel” 2 watch collection if you decide to buy back the OP39 :-)

Changing Steel for Gold

 
 By: heljestrand : February 24th, 2021-05:17
Traded my 2019 Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39mm White Dial back to DavidSW for a 2018 Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin in Rose Gold. $$$ appreciation from the discontinued Rolex paved the way for my first JLC. ...  

Glad you're happy. But that Rolex had one of my favorite clean dials.

But the thing with Rolex, you can always find another one if you want.

You should change your screen name to... Alchemist!

That JLC is sublime! Elegant and not easily seen in the wild.

The rolex is great too, but I'd be bored with it soon , i'm afraid.

I sincerely appreciate your observation

I almost left with a fat envelope of cash instead of the wristwatch. Recently turning 60 I felt this might be the time to experience something more elegant than a bank deposit. ...  

lovey...congrats

"Gold gab ich für Eisen" (I gave gold for iron) has a very special meaning here

People gave gold to finance war and got some iron rings or bracelets etc. ...  

The Rolex is a good watch, of course...

but (almost) a dime a dozen. I'll be you never run into someone with the same MUT on. (JLC=Patek quality/Rolex price) -Dean

Great looking watch! Congrats!
