Legendary Root beer...
Hi fellow Purist I have not contributed for a while... I wanted to seek advise from the experts and was wondering apart from the rolex boutiques (where the waiting list may be over 2 yrs) what other alternative would I have to get a root beer (the latest ...
Um...
Buy in a country with high inflation and lag to adjust prices. The least popular destination might be your best bet. I've seen some of these hard to find pieces on my travels overseas. Call ahead of time. You may be able to secure the piece. You don't wan...
Or take a trip to Miami and buy it off someone...
Of course, you would want to get it verified first. I see them all day long down here. I'm 100% positive someone is tired of theirs or hardly wears it anymore and would be willing to let it go. No shortage of luxury cars or watches down here!
Sadly grey market is the only option if you must have one
I thought of going grey market for other sport Rolexes but I have now given up on Rolex. At these grey market prices, it is not worth it. I will get a VC overseas.
Root beer doesn’t go up to 60% premium if you look at the “famous” C24 website...
But it’s quite nice 👍🏻 ...
NYC
The NYC greys (47th street) have them for about 10% above MSRP only. Save money plus get a vacation out of it, too!
They offerte one to me for 10% over sticker.
So there not to hard to find imo . Its a great looking watch
Where did you get that
Offered if I may ask? The only one i saw was in watchfinder in London and is priced 60% without box... Kev
IN Holland at a grey market dealer .
Funny thing is i am right now on my way to meet him . I can ask if its still available if you want ?
No problem , i told him i was interested in the Rootbeer and i will visit him again soon , probably this weekend.
Will sent you some pics then by PM
Buy the rose gold version!
Yes it’s more expensive but much better value and looks another level! Best looking GMT around!
I actually have never seen it in the flesh
But it may look a bit too shiny though? Kev
