Yes, if you have an AD relationship you can probably wait a few years and get one. Or you might get lucky and get it sooner.

But for some people I know, and I’m sure many of you know as well, money is not an issue and paying 50K for a watch like the 5711 is acceptable.

I’m talking about folks who can spend 5-6 thousand $ on a night of sushi in lower Manhattan once a week and not blink.

Would I pay that much for a 5711? Yes, if I really liked that watch and wanted it now and don’t want to wait.

I happen to look at David SW’s site last week and this. 5712 used, listed at over 52K, sold in less than 24 hours (see incoming thread about it)

5726, used Listed at over 52K, sold in less than 12 hours.

5990 listed at over 69k sold in 24 hours.

And the list goes on...
