Claiming that you know exactly what will happen to prices in the future is absurd.
I’ve noticed some dealers pricing Subs higher. Curious - could be some guys MUST have a Sub at any price. That could be for graduation or business gifts. Or, maybe some shrewd/vain strategy to prop up prices.

Or trying to recoup some losses on the higher end using volume on the lower end.

I suspect the classics will remain steady - it's the ultra hyped models that are in for dramatic drops and is what we're currently seeing.

Most Rolexes, not just the Sub, are still increasing in value.

There has been a tiny dip over a month in a few models only. -$350/$16000 = 2%. The long-term trend is up with all Rolexes ('twas ever thus).

Some posters here are claiming things have fallen off a cliff, I don't see that at all.
