Opinion needed on Daytona 116509

I’m in the market for my first Rolex. The Daytona 116509 with the black and silver dial has got my attention. It looks like it retails for over $37,000 but I found a brand new one on Chrono24 for $30,000. Should I be skeptical of this since it’s so far below retail?

You should be OK, but you can also pick one up from our trusted dealers.

Pm models are usually available at a discount.

That price shouldnt raise alarm bells. If you said it was $20k brand new that would be another story
