Oh I am not saying they get 100% of their watches from ADs.....and this one may not be the case either....I am just saying what I know is happening from dealers to greys on many occasions.

I'm betting you his spread on this one is significant - he's paying nowhere close to $23,875 if you're selling to him. I think you'd get 18K at most.

If DSW is getting some hot models from ADs, and Rolex is trying to prevent flipping, why isn't Rolex tracking which AD they came from and punishing them?

Because the serial numbers are not visible. And, who cares.

Apparently Rolex and thousands of potential customers who can't get their watches because of the ridiculous secondary prices...

Why always hating guys?

I am sure you have no idea what it takes to get some of the newest models in today's market.... Connections, Favors, and Top $$s paid...
it is humbling to know that one of our own has it while no other US dealer has it regardless if it's an AD or Secondary dealer...
To me I see it as a positive thing and not a negative thing, I see value simply in the fact that it is available to me If I want it.
simply if you don't like the price don't buy it and end of the story....
Have you bought Real Estate Lately? have you noticed prices are high.
Have you bought Stocks lately? did you notice the same thing.
Have you bought a new Car Luxury car lately and paid over sticker?...
oh wait there is more Maybe a Birkin
An AP 15400 Blue maybe or better yet a 5711

if it's for you buy it and if not flip to the next page

Are you a buyer at 16?17?
No? So what does it matter?
David is an awesome guy and he’s just flowing with the craziness to sustain his business also

If you had one I’m sure you’d be quoting people the highest flip price to show off its value lol

He didn’t create this hype
Why take away food from his plate

They can charge $100 per gallon of gasoline, but that doesn’t mean the market will pay it.

Gasoline is a necessity unless you walk or ride a bike.
A luxury watch? Hardly.
