Bottled the Ghost part-exchange;deal

[Rockeater]

As in I lost my nerve at the grey market price of £32k for the Ghost. So instead of the Ghost I’m trading in my Sea Dweller and Milgauss for a pristine 2018 Hulk.
Foolishly traded my first Hulk back in 2014, miss that beautiful sunburst dial!

My AD has me on the list for the Ghost. I’ll give it a year and see whether the itch needs scratching then!

I too love the Hulk so not sure of the math but I have watches I would sacrifice for a mint Hulk!!! Good for you!!

I think you made the choice that suits yourself, so that’s all that matters .. plus I think you made the right decision ..

Are you Burford, Cotswolds ?
If yes we go each year Burford past three, stay at Prince of Burford .. I think it’s called halfway down the high street ..

Thank you, looking forward to doing the trade next week.

Yes, I live in Burford :-) Not a bad part of the world. Ping me when you next visit we can meet for a coffee and compare Rolexes!

Will do ..

I went to Burford Grammar School (as it was then called) in the 1970s.

A new GMT Master II was released on April 9th with "Black and Gray" bezel and since then there's a "I'll name that watch" frenzy on the internet.

Stormy, Coke Zero, Ghost, Charcoal...and 50 other names have been thrown out in the last 3 days.

ohh. my bad. Ghost was a name thrown out for the new GMT also in some of the threads hence the confusion.

After seeing several threads lately, with damaged gold watches, I’m not sure I’d want any Rolex with PM, though I guess that ship has sailed, since I have a TT. Maybe the gold in TT is tougher?

Does the society kids meal come with a toy? If not, no dice.

Is that where my lovely eggs come from?

I'm interested in the Gold dial YG version but I think I prefer the old dial so would have to pay a significant premium as ADs will only get the new model in now. £32K for that would be a steal.

That is a fantastic price for the ghost! I thought they were 5 or 6 grand £ more than that.
