I think Rolex could still make a tidy profit on that watch if they sold it for what a SS Sky Dweller retails. There isn’t enough gold in it to justify the PM price, and wholesale diamonds aren’t much either. The movement costs the same as a SS movement (I guess a SkyD mov’t is the same or more effort than a DD). The only extra cost is setting the stones. The PM price relies on people to assume the metal is worth that much more. It really isn’t.
So you wont click on that "Buy it now" link for that Stainless Steel Daytona with no date feature and no visible caseback so you can't even see the movement inside it.
