5524 search

Hello all

I fell in love with both 5524 models at my AD but they will not discount. I have Rolex and Panerai history with them, but no Patek history...
Can anyone suggest a reseller used or have one they are willing to part with?
I figured, why not ask...
thank you

Go grey if you dont care about building a relationship. They can be had around 40k give or take. Think new price is well over 50k after the latest hike and taxes

Have you looked at inventory in TRF's trusted sellers (classifieds under Non Rolex section)? I have had good experiences with them.

I’m looking at adding a Patek soon and the 5524 is the top of my list based on the fact that I can’t get a 5100 series aquanaut and the 5270P is out of my ballpark right now. I just stumbled across one for sale on Chrono24 for like $38-39k new and it was based out of New York. Take a peak on there.

I’d love to get one from an AD even if I paid &45k and took a $5k or so loss.

The new price is crazy $58k including taxes... just tried it on and just laughed at my AD -$20k difference what a joke - lovely watch but go grey unless your pockets are really deep

If you pay 45k and end up selling to a grey, you'll take at least a 10k loss. Greys need to make money too. The price of liquidity
