Adding a 5980/1A
I was thinking of trading my 5712r for a 5980/1a, but then decided to keep it due to the dial preference and the gold value, however I'm now leaning towards of buying the 59801/a intead of trading for it,Is it really worth getting it since I already have a nautilus? Btw a friend is selling his 5980/1a for 34k USD, 7 months old and 99% new which is really tempting, should I go for it?

Is it worth to trade my 5712r for a 59801A?
i have been thinking of getting the 5980ss for a while now, don't really know how hard it will be to obtain one since it's being discontinued, so i guess my best bet is the second hand market. I 've got my 5712r almost 2 yrs now, don't know if i should trade it for the bigger size nautilus?
