Your right, the stickers are still on my most current white dial, and they're staying on. No need to take them off when I can only wear one at a time. Besides, if I decide to flip it the new owner will appreciate taking them off himself. |

TR is a well respected member of TRF and tells the truth. I respect him and take him at his word.

A rolex is not an investment. Buy the one you like at the price you can afford and wear it, enjoy it. Big deal if it's below MSRP or over...

Besides, he said this yesterday; "I will call "In Time" in the Pondok Indah Mall II later tonight to see if they really have all of these Daytona's in stock and if they do I will buy all of the stainless steel ones." It's been over 24hrs and we haven't heard back from him. So now maybe you can call him on his BS

Hype or not, I bought my Daytona because it is a watch I have desired for years, now that I own it, I cherish it for the fine timepiece it is. I'll agree it was nice to have paid MSRP ($7,900) for something that most people had to pay 20 to even 30% higher for, if they could find one, but even if it is not as difficult to get now, and some people can purchase it for or close to MSRP, that doesn't diminsh how special this watch is to me.

you are very welcome my friend. if you ever see me give over 10,000.00 for a ss chrono it will be a vacheron constantin overseas, not a daytona. the daytona was fairly priced at 7,900.00, when it went over that it was way out of it's league for what is available at the higher price point. they were bringing current msrp or above and now they aren't.

Hey TR, would not worry bout it, the mrket place has slowed down, for expensive watches, but the demand for the daytona will always be there, your dealer is very very lucky to have that sort of allocation in on hit.
In the Uk you can go and buy any daytona (wg) within a couple of hours even TT models as well, but the SS model in the uk is still on wait lists, some of which are many years, some dealers will not even take your name, thats how bad it is. The grey market is alive and kicking if you want to ay over the odds and I could go and purchase about 10-15 ss daytonas today if i wanted to, but personally i would rather wait my turn. On speaking to my contact at Rolex only yesterday, his sales forcast and stock planning is double for the next month, and he has also states that the slow down has not affected demand for the daytona and all of the sports models. catch up with soon, take care my friend, and i am sure you will have another Rolex on your wrist soon |

He just a user. Like me, we don't want sell/buy via online. Because Indonesia's Goverment give very high tax for luxury goods. That's why we don't like online transaction.

Totally agree with you Felly.
AND if there is - you better check and make sure you don't get scammed (not all the time) but be careful! |
