To Quote Wiz Khalifa - "Just got the call from my jeweler (AD), this just came in!"

It was one of the best Saturday's ever, got the call and went right over!

Don't go grey and be patient, only took 45 days for me!

Beautiful, wear in good health! My favorite Sub for sure, still wearing a old 16610, maybe someday. :)

Probably a couple hundred thousand Rolex watches on their way to resellers over the next two months. Tens of millions out of work. Hong Kong, Singapore, and other countries (among the world’s largest luxury watch markets) are struggling. It should be a lot easier to find popular models than it has been in a long time.

I think it may get a little easier, the affects of the recession are just starting to be felt in some industries.

I did have a good history with my AD, so it wasn't just a "luck" buy.

Any good rec's on some watch holders?

This is when the hulks are really special IMO, the darker light when it shows the deeper forest green color. So good.

SE Asia does not have an issue selling these price point watches. Perhaps the super high end 100k type models. But these sub 10k watches are bought with merely the tax break you gainee monthly compared to paying the ridic amounts in the west. To use one comparison. You have a country of 7.5mil people spending 50% more than the total American population of 328m- fter the country had a protest shutting it down for many months

And now America has more unemployment then total population of HK. Betting on watches being sent from Asia to a struggling market. Is questionable! More they may send them to Asia.
