Buying a Submariner in Taiwan

[Pederma]

Hi all,

I am new to this forum and looking for a submariner to purchase here in Taiwan for my wife.

These are the models in my radar: 116610LV or 114060

The Rolex dealers seem to be out of stock So I am looking for some recommendations on what to do apart from just waiting for a couple of years 😎

Hi there.

I am not sure of the availability in Taiwan, but if similar stock to neighbouring countries then you would need to wait, or pay more via a reseller of watches.

There is Global demand for those watches. They are very popular as luxury items. Hence your wife's interest! She's not alone!

That’s where the secondary market comes in
