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. It’s a hard management situation since the watches are dealt by lower level employees with access to watches (like the story of the kid working in the Chiangi airport Rolex boutique) after it has left the factory but before end customers have the chance to buy. Everyone wants a cut of the profit...Clearly, there’s not a simple solution.
Thanks,

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
Sold mine already, thank god.
(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 a§§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

Sure but it's the one that's most mass produced...
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.
My point is that I’m not sure that the disgust lies with the brand itself. I’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 haven’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
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
I have no interest in Rolex, accept the full green submariner. But dozens of better choices are countless.
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...
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.
Like some of the great collections of fellow "ENTHUSIASTS" here.. This just pisses me off. Not cool
This guy is probably considered a “best customer” at a number of ADs.
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..
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
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
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?
