But you will get your Rolex Dayto one day, at the retail. 

Thanks Nicolas. There is no way I will throw my money away at this dealer. He has lost my business for good.
Cheers

I plan to do that but not in my home country. I will look to place my name in a queue somewhere else. Thanks Nicolas

It was the same when the DSSD was first introduced.  I recall the ADs quoted a few grands above list.  Even for the D-blue, is it really at US$3-400 above the existing model?

The daytonas are never sold at list price from this part of the world. The old model still cost USD12k approx brand new at the dealers.

The price tag for the new Daytona is there for all to see but you can't get it at list price.

Well we all have a choice, we can choose to buy from elsewhere, there's no point getting angry over this.

Cheers

Kee, firstly I am not angry but disgusted. Secondly I wanted to share this experience and hear alternative views which I have so, its been successful in what the primary objective was by posting.

I too am looking to get the Daytona and I am not paying the additional premium. Was at the dealers the other day admiring the beauty...unfortunate is a see no buy sort of thingy.

Worse part was that it wasn't reserved for anyone but just waiting to go to the highest bidder. Checked if they will sell the old models at list price...but no way. Still commanding a premium.

Will put my Q number as well.

Cheers

The whole experience is just Sucky

I can only assume it isn't uncommon over where you are..??
Here in England it is very strict....in fact on the opposite side if a Rolex dealer is found to be offering a discount they will get warned and then loose the contract. Even I don't get a discount on Rolex, but I can on anything else.!
Dealers are also only meant to be selling these new Daytonas to customers who are known to them and have previously bought at least 1 other Rolex from them or they won't even take your details.
I picked up my Daytona a few weeks ago but would never even consider it if the price was hiked up.
Fingers crossed you can finally recieve one somewhere.
Yours,
Andy.

Hiya,
Unfortunately the same is not true where I live. The dealers are just asking for ridiculous premiums. If your willing to pay, you can get a piece. I find this practice repulsive. I will wait and let the market cool before I dip my toe in. For now I have enough pieces to keep me busy.
