Amazing forum!

No idea...sorry, but MOP dials are expensive and push the normal price up by at least a couple of grand!!

If money were no object (HAH!!!!), that MOPDT would be on my list for sure!!! You've posted that photo before, and I drool over it each and every time!

But, by the same token, I'm pretty sure an AD will move considerably on a cash price!!

Give it a shot....what have you got to lose? (Except a few thousand bucks, of course!!)

If you're talking directly to me in your post, JJ, I would have to say that I would probably go for the Bark DD first (money is no object, right?!?)...THEN get after that yummy Daytona with the Midas aura! After all, I already own a TT Daytona now.

leopardprey · 16 September 2007, 05:35 AM

Well, I am going to go against the flow. Since you already have 3 Rolex, why not something else.

Check out getting one of the below: (all are very well made, ruggedd, nice looking watches!)

Ulysse Nardin Dual Time or Maxi Marine Chronometer

Girard-Perregaux Sea Hawk

IWC Ingeniuer

, the "Bark" is really COOL!

Sad that Rolex stopped making that finish

Agreed, Bo. A beautiful Rolex, in my estimation. The only all-gold watch I would even think about purchasing.

LouCan · 16 September 2007, 07:30 AM

Try them all on and pick the one you can't take off.

Be calm in your responses lol

Sounds like a pseudo Rolex to me!

yachtsales · 16 September 2007, 09:52 AM

A nice used PREZ is hard to beat and a great contrast to the sport models you have!

horseco · 10 August 2013, 03:16 PM

I would get one of these & have change...

kxux · 10 August 2013, 03:39 PM

Wow, what a bump. Congrats.

Whatever he bought it's due for service.

"Zombie thread", and "it's time for a service"

Thanks guys, could'nt sleep this Saturday morning and needed a good laugh with my coffee !

samsmart · 10 August 2013, 09:15 PM

Wakafc · 10 August 2013, 09:19 PM

So True

SUBversive · 10 August 2013, 09:58 PM

Post this over in the WTB section and you will probably get a lot of help.

Think you really need to go to an AD and try on several models. Wait a few days and repeat. And then buy....good luck.

Great suggestion!

Could buy a GMT pepsi and a classic sub fir that dough...

Racerdj · 10 August 2013, 10:48 PM

My thought is a used Sub or Daytona but that is because I like both. I really like my Breitling's but be really sure if you go that way as the resale is not good. By going Rolex, you can resell if you did not choose the right one and not loose a great percentage.

paul2g2 · 10 August 2013, 11:13 PM

when op said " how much is that going for jj?" my heart jumped, i had to look at the date to realize this was an old thread.

Clay · 10 August 2013, 11:58 PM

Instead of a NEW watch...How about a nice vintage piece...
Much nicer then anything Rolex has come out with in years and if you buy smart you will never loose any money...And you might even make a few bucks should you need to sell...
Something to think about...

anothernewphone · 11 August 2013, 12:07 AM

Wow, the ol' six-year thread bump.

SWISSAHOLICS · 11 August 2013, 12:13 AM

Add a Daytona to your collection...just make sure a date function is not a priority for you.

SWISSAHOLICS · 11 August 2013, 12:14 AM

Wow...just noticed the date on this thread
