Nice. I've never seen stainless steel models at any of the Costcos near me. They seem to always have 1 or 2 gold models going for $20-30k though...

I think that's a great price if you didn't have to pay tax. It looks brand new too. I can't tell if 36 or 39mm but if 39 I thinks it's sweet

Seems reasonable. Do executive members get cash back on that?

Mine (SE Michigan) had the purple dial version of this watch. It was $500 more

That's the only watch my wife has given an unsolicited positive opinion about.

Might be 34mm, just b/c I almost bought that model for my wife a couple weeks ago and I seem to recall it being 34mm (could be wrong though).

I ended up getting something different for her.

It's a good deal, nevertheless.

Was it 36mm or 39mm? The green dial posted in this listing only comes in 36mm.

The Costco in Irvine dishes out a Rolex from time to time, but typically they're gold models.

NICE! I hold the Yachtmaster on a pedestal; hard to believe seeing it in a Costco case.

Here's a twist to the usual Rolex at Costco post:

I was at Costco last weekend and the guy working at the register was wearing a new RG DD40. I got a very close look at it and I believe the watch was 100% legit. I was thrown off for sure!

Is Costco concidered a grey market watch? Does it have the full Rolex factory warranty?
