That price is hilarious. I would have said the BLNR and LV are in similar demand.

I bet they will try to pass this off as the new GMT just released at Basel.

That's just so far off market prices that they must be hoping for a random rich punter who knows nothing about Rolex watch prices. You can buy BLNRs all day long for £8.5k here. The Hulk price is not far off though.

Crazy eh!

The SS Sports Shortage continues... ultimately the prices are going to keep going up... especially if people are actually buying them for these prices. Crazy times!

*shrug* Stores can charge what they want. It's not like eBay and Chrono24 aren't also filled with optimistic prices. It's entirely possible that there's no expectation of selling the BLNR, and that price is there entirely to make the other products look like a bargain.

That's one seriously expensive BLNR, you can buy a one on Watchfinder for £10,000

I hate hearing of business failing.

However I’d love to see Chisholm Hunter go into Administration. As a company they are the absolute pits and do nothing for the Rolex brand.

Staff are mostly degenerates too.

Would be a good laugh to go in and ask what they would pay to buy one in. Probably offer like £4K.

Joke company.

They genuinely would offer £4K or similar.

They’re a disgusting organisation.

Insane prices for sure. Can’t wait to see the market shift in the other direction.
