While the grey market thrives with hundred of Daytona ceramic for sale at premium prices those who really want to own and wear this Daytona ceramic to get at retail will be hard.Today you can bet that well over 50% Daytona C. bought for retail are then flipped and sold to the grey for profit.It's a strange world some go mad for what in the real world is a 17 year production watch basically only cosmetically changed since introduction in 2000.Sure some like ceramic bezels good luck to them, myself would prefer a simple black aluminum bezel insert like on the 6263 instead of the plain steel bezel.

I bought mine from a big retailer in Switzerland. However, a few weeks ago they told me that I was very very lucky back in the days and that the waiting list has exploded (up to 4 years).
Furthermore, several dealers in Switzerland told me that they will never sell "prestige models" to any tourist and keep them for locals or VIPs. Maybe you find a nicer AD in Europe, but the chances are not that high. However, I also think the watch is over-hyped/heated. |
