Will hopefully own one later this week....BUT...set is missing Sub booklet, Service booklet and leather card holder. Tags and warranty card there and is new/unworn. Friend said would not buy due to missing items but I want to wear it not speculate!!!!
Just seen new Skydweller prices on Chrono24....I think the speculators are ruining it for genuine buyers who actually want to own and wear these watches!!!

116610LV Price Thread!!

Yikes. Still seems to be climbing. Approaching 10k$ complete from some trusted sellers and they used to often be in stock and now seems intermittently available!

Or just the opposite as if prices are rising, you will also be able to sell it and get out even so an added bonus.

The trend is your friend.

To add to the absurdity, I just saw a hulk on another board for sale in Hong Kong for USD10.7k. Will be interesting to see if it moves at that price

If it was up to me at that price the only place it would move is from the display case back to the main safe everyday for a LONG time.

I would say good deal mate. I bought mine a month ago from a grey dealer. I was lucky as according to them, the watch just came in an hour before I walk in and enquire about it. Full set, mint, june 2014. RM 36,800.00 which is around USD 8,620.00

I heard from the watch dealer that the Hulk is really limited in the market. They have not seen one in almost 7 months! Wonder what is cooking in Rolex HQ

I bought one 1.5 years ago for 15% off. I also am picking one up as a gift for a family member for 10% off. Both brand new from an AD.

Deals are still out there!

Fantastic deal mate. Over here in Malaysia, you would be lucky if the AD has stock let alone offering a discount.

I enquired with my local AD and they could only tell me to wait 4 years. Price is above retail, RM 41,000.00

I maybe wrong here but others can throw their 2 cents but i think the price hike was due to the rumour that says Hulk will be discontinued as it seems it has reached its life time?

With me, I have had hulk in the past, sold it, and now coming back to it and this time I will keep it for sure as I love that green color

I know someone who bought from a grey this week for £7,750 (3 days old). Big premium, but I guess less bad if the anticipated price rise does happen (it wasn't me btw!)

I had a polar Explorer II, a 14060 and a blue roman DJ 116300..but all I wanted was a Hulk, for my one and only. Ended up getting rid of them all and picking one up to be my semi-daily on New Year's of this year. Bought from a trusted seller on here, a complete set and in 98% new condition for around $7700 USD

Nice to see prices jumping, but even if it reached insane heights, it's the one that truly speaks to me and I'd have a hard time parting ways with it!

in Hong Kong, prices are steadily going up in grey dealers. Luckily I got one at below MSRP just a month ago BNIB from a trusted seller.

Haven't been to an AD lately, anyone know what it's retailing for? And when do you think Rolex will increase its price?
It's gonna keep going north and north and north. Much like Admp.

Great picture . I have a button up in this same color. Definitely provides motivation.
