Should I??

Guys, I kindly need your opinion on this and thanks in advance.
I have the opportunity to buy a Y serial (2002) GMT master 2 16710 (pepsi) in an excellent condition (except for a slight scratch on the bezel) for $8500 (no box no papers, but trusted seller). But to do so I have to sell one of my watches.
I am thinking of selling my milgauss 116400GV (black dial). The seller is paying $4000 for it. So I will have to pay $4500 to get the 16710. 
What do you think? Shall I go for it or do I keep my milgauss? I can’t keep it and buy the 16710. 
Also, is it easy to swap the insert to the coke for example? And are they expensive?
Thanks and I appreciate the help.

Only you have the answer. How much do you love your Milgauss? The 16710 is a very nice GMT MASTER. So you can't go wring getting it. But how much do you love your Milgauss?

Won't you regret it? Best, Nicolas PS: An insert is quite expensive. Keep that in mind! Or negociate it with your seller.

As much as I love the Pepsi ...

... these have gone up so much, I’d have a hard time at today’s prices. If it’s a watch you love, go for a 16710, but get the one you want. They’re out there, if you’re patient.

I think the GV is one of those watches..

That one will regret selling. Pepsi is nice for sure. Ticks all the boxes. But the GV has a lot of inexplicable charm going for it, a watch that’s sure to bring a smile. Even the posters here couldn’t give you a straight answer if that’s any indication ;-... 

Well..

I’m a bit biased. Not a big fan of nipple dial GMTs. More 1675 and the like. But I’m sure once I get around to warming up towards these nipple dial GMTs, it would probably be too late! Right now, I’d prooooobably go more for a black dial exp2. First thing...  

Top shot! [nt]

Pepsi, the bezel thing is nothing [nt]

All for your replies and help. I didn’t do the exchange as I think the price I am getting on the milgauss is a bit low and i wasn’t too sure of the condition of the gmt. And to be honest i kind of like my GV and wasn’t ready to sell it. Anyways, thank you...
