Yep

RRP is $16,150 which is $17,443 after an average"ish" 8% tax.

Not much of a premium at all with no wait.

It’s all speculation. If you really want the watch, buy the watch and enjoy the watch.

Historically TT doesn’t hold value as well, but there are always exceptions. I’d recommend spending a tad more and grabbing a BLRO which (IMHO) is more iconic, versatile, and likely to hold its value better.

But only you know what works for you. Good luck.

If you absolutely must have it right now, $19600 is a very good 2ndary price. I would only purchase a full set though. Also you are likely to "lose" some (up to 3K) in a resale so if you're buying to wear, that's okay. If buying as an "investment" on the other hand... well, you get my drift

That's really not much over retail once you average in sales tax. Don't waste time waiting and wondering what might or might not happen.

My advice, never listen to market predictions. When you think the price is competitive pull the trigger.

If you want the watch and are going to keep it for a few years then buy it. If it is a flip in a short time, don't. Nothing gets cheaper over extended periods of time, especially Rolex.

I agree with what was said earlier, taking a look at the greater economic picture, next summer looks like a great time to buy assets as a whole not just watches.

Where did all those wealthy people go who were buying everything gold, flaunting them, ...?! Not just the crypto bro's, but several others left the building as well. So weird.

Got bored moved on the next wave, or maybe they weren’t wealthy in the first place.
