AD discounts on Royal Oak Offshore chronographs

Hi all,

New to the forums and relatively new to the watch buying experience. I was gifted a Rolex sub when I finished grad school but haven't shopped for myself till date.

I'm looking at the following APs ... wanted to see what kind of discount (if any) I can expect at an AD

26170ST OO D101CR 03
26470ST OO A104CR 01

Also, are these relatively easily available or am I better off looking at the grey market?

Sorry I had to replace the . with a space in the model number ... for some reason it was considered a link and my post count is too little.

Also wanted to check if anyone has any recommendations for another model in roughly the same price range? Wanted a leather strap and a chrono

first one, discontinued so used only

second one is my favorite 42mm ROO chrono but doesn't seem to be nearly as popular as some others so a discount should be possible, but with AP reducing AD stock generally i wouldn't expect anything large.

Thanks Tyler! I love it too lol.

What would that look like? 5 or 10%?

Would the discontinued model still be available to a grey market dealer?

yes, but probably used, not new in box. No idea on specific US discounts though.

Look at some of the trusted sellers here as that will give you an idea of what the market values those watches at. The elephant which is still in production is not hard to find.
