Would you trade? RZE gmt vs seiko spb053

Hey everyone!

Would you trade an RZE GMT for a modern interpretation of a 62mas seiko prospex spb053?

I consider the main pros of the RZE to be its titanium construction, scratch resistance and the GMT function.

I do enjoy the history of the 62mas and this reinterpretation by seiko.. also the movement 6R15 seems to be a bigger upgrade to the nh34 (aside from the gmt function)

Do you guys think it’s a worthy trade? Both are pre owned and are of similar value. Thanks for reading!

I would do it. I was in a similar position with trading two of the Nodus watches I owned for a used in good condition SPB257. I didn’t have so much success trying to sell the Nodus watches compared to the Seiko and Citizen watches I have sold before.

Personally, I would go for the trade. It has less to do with the specs and more to do with the anesthetic; the Seiko looks a lot nicer vs the RZE.

Regardless of brand/movement/price, I find the spb053 the more attractive watch. 👍

Two completely different watches.

Depends on what you want.
