Need an opinion on a price for a SD

All -

Just looking to see if i am getting a good deal - i believe i am but just need the reassurance. It would be for a BNIB SD "m" serial for 5500.00.

I apologize if this is not correct way to ask this type of question or put the dollar amount but just trying to make sure i do well on this purchase.

Thanks for any and all replies.

Sounds about the going rate in the For Sale forum. If that is from an AD - it is a great price!

http://www.swissluxury.com/rolex-wat...ea-dweller.htm

I attached a link from Swiss Luxury (gray dealer) - they are $5844 there with a wire transfer and you get a 3-year warranty. Their website also says they accept all reasonable offers - maybe you save another little bit of money.

Hope this helps!

List is $6,225. So, I think it sounds like a good price to me.

As long as the seller is legit, sounds good. I would certainly ask for references.

lakeos,

I recently purchased an “M” series sea-dweller from a local AD here in Florida and paid $5,478.00 plus tax 6.5% $5,856.68. That was a 12% discount ($747.00) from the retail price of $6,225.00.

Good luck, just make sure you are an educated consumer and make sure you are buying an authentic Rolex!

Matt
