The same reason I question that beautiful green 34mm. Why couldnt they offer that color in a 39.

Got to agree, that one has clear signs of use. Needs a bigger discount from MSRP.

It’s only a month old and has a warranty card. The minor scuffs are easily fixed with a fiberglass pen. Same price for one at DavidSW which is used and has no warranty card and the ADs are not discounting. The white is a hot ticket, If you want one I think it’s a good opportunity.

Just my opinion, but I’d rather pay full retail for a brand new one with my name on it (even if I have to wait a month or two) than get a 7% discount for one with visible signs of use. I’d personally need a bigger discount for that specific piece.

I've had my OP for almost two weeks. It grows on me more and more each day. I was going to go grey market for a sub, but wanted the AD experience. No regrets!

Agree it’s a harder to get piece. But I don’t think they’ll sell over MSRP. Could be wrong though.

^^this! I’d want more of a discount. Definitely wouldn’t pay over MSRP.

There actually are a few listed over MSRP on Chrono24 and a couple forum posts, but I have to imagine they could be negotiated down.

I don’t think it would ever sell for over MSRP but it’s stainless steel so you probably would not see a discount either.

Spoke to another AD today about the white OP39. Said it would take a few weeks likely to get one if I wanted to have it ordered. 50% deposit required.

In discussion, we also spoke about an Air King. They said it was so hard to get, they wouldn’t even take an order for one. Strikes me as odd for a watch the doesn’t often get a ton of love. No?

Same. I’ve been to three different ADs in three different countries in the last two months. All three had an Air King. I tried it on. It’s really bad in my opinion.

Looks the best to me with the Black dial. Just cleaner and classier all around.

I just bought my first Rolex I chose the Black OP39 and could of bought an explorer but I feel the OP looks better. I don’t like the 3,6,9 or the logo crown on the explorer. And the original “explorer” that went to Mount Everest was a Oyster Perpetual not an explorer! I couldn’t find a black OP 39 anywhere out of the 10 stores I called only 2 had the black OP. So if you find one buy it! I feel like the white and black are hard to come by least where I live. But in the end buy what you like!
