What else is new?

These Gray dealers are all over the IG and C24. And if you look at their stock for a while, you can see that they don't shift none of their stock of Rolex. Nobody buys them at this prices

Fish market ....

(No, I didn't buy it to flip it, but I didn't wear it anymore after a year or two of ownership)

I hope aĀ§Ā§holes like these

go bankrupt Honetly, the one you posted also has tons of Daytonas I hope these insane prices crash and those ( Can't really write what I think LOL) go bankrupt

I doubt that Rolex is the only brand.

While Rolex probably has the most models that are hoarded/Grey marketed for profit, one would assume any other watch that has a healthy grey market profit margin is being sold in a similar fashion. Itā€™s a hard management situation since the watches are de... 

Sure but it's the one that's most mass produced...

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : May 29th, 2020-10:03
Try finding a case full of PP 5711's or AP 15202's.

No doubt. And the Rolex surely has the most demand from a population base perspective.

 
 By: bchankai : May 29th, 2020-12:24
My point is that Iā€™m not sure that the disgust lies with the brand itself. Iā€™m also not denying that people avoid Rolex by the sheer fact that secondary market practices are associated with their watches despite it not being a direct result of the company... 

So funny people still fish for these

I havenā€™t looked at Rolex for a long time now. Lost interest. Also with how good Tudor is I see no point unless you get vintage!

Pretty sure that if I was given

 
 By: Thomas_3 : May 29th, 2020-09:31
my pick of any Rolex I wanted, the green "Hulk" would be the very last one I would choose, I have never cared for that one.

The only one i want

 
 By: Weems@8 : May 29th, 2020-11:44
I have no interest in Rolex, accept the full green submariner. But dozens of better choices are countless.

Fish market...

Yup, I have even seen a trayful of RMs at a local trade show

Imageries like these turn me off

I just got one and...

 
 By: Rolie5512 : May 29th, 2020-20:09
I don't give a S%$T about the Haters, Hoarders or Hype, I just love wearing it!!!

Typically when I see a lot of watches it evokes an emotion.

 
 By: doubleup : May 30th, 2020-11:43
Like some of the great collections of fellow "ENTHUSIASTS" here.. This just pisses me off. Not cool

This guy is probably considered a ā€œbest customerā€ at a number of ADs.

 
 By: LS : May 30th, 2020-18:00
Perhaps this proves that the Rolex distribution network can support higher prices and an extra layer of middlemen.

Another reason I am turned off by Rolex as well..

 
 By: D-TIME1 : May 30th, 2020-23:24
I hate buying ANYTHING at retail value... always look for a bargain especially on luxury items... and with Rolex unless you can get from the AD which most times won't give you a discount it is not worth it in my opinion no matter what I could resell the p... 

Discount days are counted

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : May 31st, 2020-07:13
Especially within this industry when more and more brands are going with boutique only while eliminating AD's. Even AD's are tightening their belts and selling at retail. That's why the pre-owned market is getting hotter by the day.

i wouldn't buy a ceramic version

 
 By: Cookies : June 4th, 2020-04:04
Known issues are that the ceramic falls off. Yet to see any Swiss makers perfecting a perfect ceramic bezel unbonded to steel. The aluminium insert 16610LV is still the best.

Are these even real? Why is there a stack of warranty cards in the case?

Are those fake blanks to be filled out?
