Sub no date 114060 in Asia from AD

anybody has any idea how to get a 114060 from an AD here in Asia? Hard to talk to any in HKG. No luck in Singapore.

Don't have any relationships unfortunately, and fom what I understand and from the grey market premium, it sounded like a fairly available watch. But still struggling to find one.

As you have probably surmised, odds are you can't given your lack of AD relationship. A grey dealer is your only venue for now.

Haven't seen it in an AD in years. On a positive note, the prices on the gray market seems to have come down though. Hopefully it will be easier to find in the near future.

Asia is a tough market. Unlikely you will find anything at an AD. Try the grey dealers, the mark up shouldn’t be too substantial on a 114060.

there is no way you can get a no date sub in HK at msrp. either you pay to enter a waitlist or go grey.

Yes, find a reputable gray market dealer that ships to your location.

Dude! A new 114060 from an AD with no relationship? Um - no, not happening.

Grey is likely your best option

The huge demand of SS Sport model is worldwide, it could be a good and bad result.

114060 is not a hard to obtain reference like an SS daytona or pepsi
Dont know why everyone encourages secondary market

I agree it's not the hardest watch to get from an AD, but then again this is a free market and the secondary/grey dealers serve a purpose. If you don't like their prices, don't buy from them. But don't treat them as if they are evil. Do you work pro bono or discount your services a few thousand dollars?

I got my 114060 from an AD in Japan but it took a long time. It depends where you are, it’s alright those saying the mark up on grey market shouldn’t be too bad...both Bic camera and Yodobashi camera are selling new 114060s for about $4000 over msrp...just not worth it.

I’d get a nice used piece from a trusted seller.
