WTT: My Autavia 11630P for your....

I'll probably regret this tomorrow, but let's see what this brings up...
Want to trade my excellent condition Heuer Autavia 11630P for your Omega flightmaster 910 or Carrera 12 Dato or Seafarer or Zenith A386.

My 11630P was a Chrono24 purchase late last year from France - the vendor said it had been recently serviced, and it's been running fine, so I haven't had the need to open up the watch since.
The vendor's original ad is still online, with more details and additional photos:

I still think it's achingly beautiful...it's just not getting enough wrist time, so perhaps it's time to let someone else enjoy it.
The 11630P will come with the generic Oyster bracelet as in the last photo, NOT the Gay Freres BOR bracelet as in the first photo.

What do I want to trade it for? Well, I'm partial to the following:

An excellent/mint condition Omega ST145.0013 flightmaster 910 with original bracelet - all original (not re-assembled), with un-polished case, sharp edges, crisp coloured hands and dial, pushers still retaining their original colours, and recently serviced.

Carrera 12 Dato or equivalent with original BOR bracelet:

Autavia-style Seafarer with original BOR bracelet:

Zenith El Primero A386 (a real one please!) with original Zenith bracelet:

Will happily consider any other iconic vintage watch from the mid/late 60s, early 70s - so hit me with what you've got!

Any offered watch doesn't have to be a safe queen, but it should be in as good condition as my 11630P or better.
I'm assigning a trade value for my 11630P at a reasonable 3000Euro/4000USD, and will be happy to do a straight trade, or with a top-up either way, depending on what's on offer.
I'm located in Singapore, and I can provide references.

On to the photos!
