Did your AD literally say "not a chance "? For a 36mm? Well, if you asked and you don't have much of a relationship or spending history or both, then that is pretty obvious

Can someone get him to wear a Moser so they also skyrocket to ridiculous and unwarranted prices

In all seriousness, he is definitely not always the highest. There are several other so-called trusted sellers, and depending on the timepiece, their prices can be several thousand higher. I'm not talking about discrepancies and condition. I mean a one-to-one comparison, unworn, depending on the piece.

the $37,875 OP tiffany blue on davidsw website is gone! not sure he just put it away and relist later or its actually sold though.

kevinjb · 20 January 2022, 12:48 AM

When they first came out, I wasn't really interested, then few months later I tried one at my AD and thought this would be a nice daily watch for summer, plus I love turquoise (don't care bout Tiffany or else, just love this color...).

At the time (november 2020), they told me around 3-4 months to wait for this one (36mm). In the meantime the prices slowly raised... so after 6 months they told me the demand was so high it'd be probably another 6 months...

And after this year of waiting, this price craziness because of the Patek arrived.... So last week I went to my AD and cancelled this waiting list (I can only be on waiting list for 2 models at the same time..), and changed it for the Yacht Master 40 Everose Oysterflex... that I'll get in a few months for a retail price under the price the Oyster Perpetual is reselling.... In the meantime I also got a YG DD 36 (also for a cheaper price than the reselling Oyster Perpetual price)...

I really hope no one will pay this CRAZY price for a SS watch...just for a dial color, this is so stupid... Honestly if you pay more than a PM model for a SS one there's a problem somewhere..... I could understand that some people would pay this for a SS Daytona, but it's a Daytona, since forever it's the hardest model to get, it has a great history, plus the ceramic bezel is really something..but an Oyster Perpetual ?!?! Don't get me wrong but this should be a model that is in stock all the time !

Ubiquitous1984 · 20 January 2022, 01:50 AM

I managed to snag the 36mm version very shortly after release. I loved the watch as soon as it was announced. However I never bothered to insure it as it was relatively 'cheap' (£4800 I think?)

Now that the value has increased I think I will take out a policy. Does anyone know how much a replacement 36mm would currently sell for so I can give an accurate valuation?

Yes I saw that...since my original post, this timepiece has increased about 5 to 7k, though

On the site https://watchcharts.com/watches

You can explore the prices being asked in the market for most watches and the actual sale prices/ number of sales.

With all the Rolex models I checked there was a significant difference with very few to no sales at the prices we believe are being achieved in the market.

I haven't checked this model yet but I bet its not selling at all.

I know it is, driving on the price... 35k plus without a doubt

Gordon1638888 · 20 January 2022, 08:04 PM

It is a $40k watch as of today. End of this year mayb $60k..

iw8888 · 22 January 2022, 10:33 AM

Prices seem to have plateaued..

Are pieces still moving/transacted?

I believe tho - if it does get discontinued as per Marc golberg’s prediction, prices will skyrocket again..

GreenLantern · 22 January 2022, 10:34 AM

Who's seriously buying these at $35,000 - $40,000 anyway? Other than grey dealers trading between each other speculatively?

Abaco24 · 22 January 2022, 10:46 AM

Why?? This is crazy!!

iw8888 · 22 January 2022, 10:49 AM

I actually think they are moving at the 34-37k price range..

It is rare, more so than Daytonas..

It is unique, tho some might hate it to the core.

And, prospect of this being discontinued is a real possibility.

bswizzle2552 · 25 January 2022, 12:23 PM

When the market corrects a lot of people are going to get smoked

GreenLantern · 25 January 2022, 12:30 PM

The watch market won't really correct.

It's an opaque illiquid market with about 10+ individuals or businesses manipulating and controlling list prices.

Those types of markets can't correct without something like the Quartz Crisis.

27-33 ish seems to be about the range I’ve seen. I think 30k is the right number today. Next week it could be 37, these things are moving around like Bitcoin.

GreenLantern · 25 January 2022, 02:12 PM

Do we know a single person worth their salt (here) who's actually buying these at these absurd list prices?

Try to find someone who will admit it...

Agreed.

If someone is that ashamed, shouldn't they be spending their money on something else?

I try not to buy things that I'm ashamed to admit I bought. In fact, I can't remember the last time I did that. Anywhere. Watches, cars, houses, random products and services, anything.

If you feel that uneasy about it, it's probably the wrong thing to do.

dpt.calvin · 26 January 2022, 08:21 AM

I saw this in person today and now I get the hype. This is coming from someone who doesn't typically prefer colored dials of any sort (outside of black and white).

Honestly, I feel pretty uneasy about the money I spend on anything. That includes the Big Mac I had for lunch, LOL

Based on what?

aj1987 · 28 January 2022, 01:41 PM

I sold mine. Got $30k for it. Wore it just a couple of times and people ALWAYS noticed it. I liked that watch, but never loved it though. Been wanting to get a 126710BLNR, so I guess I'll get that from my AD. Or might try to get a ROO, if that's even remotely possible, without exorbitant grey prices.

Do not regret selling it at all. Made $24k and can buy a watch which I would probably love.
