well its not the same any more you can get these watches if you look around with a few AD's
this at the end of the day is all controlled due to marketing and not due to the fact that they are rare in case of raw material.
I would say you can even get 5002 or 5004 with a few calls.
I would be better to buy a watch that will not be in production that this.
I firstly would never sell any watch to buy another and never have done it before.
Again it's your call at the end of the day but I would be against it
Nautilus 5980/1A
I have the unique opportunity to pick up a brand new 5980/1A from my local AD...would you trade in a Rolex Daytona and a vintage Rolex Explorer II for this "sought after" Patek? RP

No question for me
Certainly a good idea to trade a Daytona plus Explorer II for a 5980. Now if you were talking about certain vintage Daytonas, that would be different. 5980 is a great chrono.
To all that have responded...
Many thanks for having taken the time to express your views and opinions. It is greatly apprecited. RP
Absolutely!
I traded-in a Breitling + JL Reverso, both of which I rarely ever wore, for a 3710. It was by far one of the smartest transactions I have done + I'm enjoying the 3710 10x more than I ever enjoyed the Breitling or JL. Out with the old, in with the new!
5980
I just traded 2 SS Daytonas plus cash for a 5980. I loved Rolexs, but got bored with the Daytonas. I keep a non-date Submariner to use as a "rough use" watch. Paul
