No, but a Daytona doesn't really light my fire due to no date and tiny second hand.

YES!! Here in the UK there is no hope in hell of getting on the wait list unless you have spent a fortune a the AD never mind getting a discount.

I have just spent over MRRP for a BNIB Daytona. If anyone could let me know where to get one discounted I would love to know.

Yes.

All three ADs I have spoken to recently would give me a good discount on any SS model except the Daytona. If it was the watch I was interested in then yes, I'd buy at MSRP.

Yes, I just purchased a new SS Daytona at MSRP. Although I did not receive a discount on THIS watch my AD does afford me discounts on other models and the service is great. All things considered I am very happy with my decision and would do the same again.

Just got back from Vegas. Hit 4 Rolex dealers there. First, you'll never see a Rolex SALE at the Wynn again. Last year's sale nearly ended their dealership. It was hilarious to hear all the excuses they made for that mistake when I asked when the "spring sale" was going to be this year. Second, I did not see a SS Daytona in any of the dealers. Like clockwork, they all stated that I would never see one in their display case, because they have waiting lists for that particular model. Of course, the major wait is for the white dial. I wonder how long these folks wait in Vegas? A month? As you know, the shipping out of state saves around 8.5% in tax. Drop that coin at the craps table, bet pass with free odds, and do a few come bets with odds and you might save 16% on the watch if you have some patience and an hour's time.

You see plenty of the other Daytona models there. I did see a beautiful woman's watch with a meteorite dial and diamond hour markers for $10K. Treat your wife and pass on the Daytona. That might pay off in the long run.

bought a black dial daytona at the wynn last year. i put my name on their list and got a call 4 days later. they told me they get 4 a month. if you can not find one via the trf sellers, then you should give the wynn a call.
