If it wasn't your father, i'd say do the trade, then sell it on the secondary market and buy another Chronomat and pocket the change... but since its your father, I would just decide which one you like better and just make your choice accordingly. I want a milgauss right now personally, but like Mikey was saying, its one of the over-hyped Rolexes.
When I scrolled down the thread this was more or less exactly down to the words what I had in mind to answer.
But I'd say, as you now decided to keep it - why don't suggest this route to your father? Tell him you can manage the trade and new requisition and then you both can go on a fishing trip together for the change.
