    Not bragging but 2019 was an awesome watch year for me. Purchased a Hulk in January and the new BLNR on Black Friday, both from my local AD. It’s about relationships and knowing I’m not a watch flipper. I’m not a fan of the Daytona but I do prefer the black dial over the white dial model.

    I found out the answer to the question I asked you the other day from my dealer. The yellow gold Submariner is increasing $1,500 to $35,750. So, I just bought another blue one today before the price went up! ;) I know, I know, I didn't buy it to make money...I bought this one for somebody else. The other one is mine. ;)

  • @shaverray4462

    The Professional watches are still a decent option if you’re fortunate enough to get one from an AD at retail, even with the price hike. The grey/secondary market route, however, remains nonsensical.

  • @jz2188
    @jz2188 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm in the UK, our Rolex prices were lower than a lot of regions so in this round, it was a true up along with an increase, so looking at a bigger lift in Q1'20. If you in UK , get all your Rolex pieces revalued as most insurers pay on most recent valuation, so if you make a claim you going to miss out on the gap for some policies, read your small print. For me, increases always great for my investment set, 7 points growth over .85% on cash deposits APR is a winner... My daily beater 116618LN just gone up £2K, lol..

    There are always ups and downs, history has shown this over and over again. Daytona were super hot, back in 2008 I walked into an AD and they said I could buy the white or black, or both for 15% off. I’m not a flipper and I don’t care for the Daytona so I passed. But it goes to show what goes up must come down. The folks that believed the stock market and said “it’s not going to burst” have gone bankrupt so I do believe it will burst at some point.

      I think Rolex control the overall prices. Even though MSRP is much cheaper. The resale price is what Rolex controls. Authorised dealers sell to the secondhand market, who then resell at big profits. I would dare say Rolex knows about it and encourage it. Otherwise, why would Rolex not increase their prices to align with the resale price? It would make sense to skip the middle man.

    Saw the Yachtmaster 40 Blue face at an AD last week for the first time in a long time. Priced at $11,800.00. It was gorgeous and for sale to anybody. I was very surprised to see it. They had 2 other steel sports watches available that day. I noticed they have restructured the display case to show only half as many watches as it can hold. As you know it is not unusual to not have anything in there to see or buy. I have stopped going by there because they normally dont have anything.

      Pick any 2 AMG models and I could pay cash for those with my Rolex collection. You would be better off buying a Rolex my friend and wear it every day. It will hold its value or increase in price. The MB won't, especially if you drive it and probably not in your remaining lifetime. Just a thought.

      the masses go into the AD just to find a watch these days and then to flip them. you can buy the model you want right now just not at retail

      langra man ya, but that doesn’t answer the question really... why is it that not everyone who wants one can buy one at retail. These people who are flipping them wouldn’t be able to if Rolex would just meet demand by letting the AD keep enough stock! It’s what I consider an artificially inflated market, which will pop if they don’t continue to do what they are doing. Who knows they may never go back to how it was when you could buy what you wanted in stores- and then the bubble may never pop because there will always be people willing to buy Rolex at 50-100% retail- which is insane brand loyalty.

      @@matthewwolf3531 to me it sounds like each AD store gets a set package of rolexs models/range in equal-ish numbers..restricting creates a buzz around the brand otherwise boring looking watches .. seems to be working for them plus the AD picks and chooses who he sells to when it comes to the most wanted model. waiting list runs long for some short for others.. they make you buy other models in stock in the mean time at discount. rolex make around 1 million watches a year yet they claim its hand made and one watch takes a year lol. Nike does this with its Jordan brand. when i was younger you could just go in buy the latest jordan. now you got limited yearly releases and high prices for same shoes that cost quarter of the price back in the 90s

    U.K. pricing has always been the the same Pounds as Dollars for as long as I can remember. Apple, Rolex, Tesla, BMW, Mercedes, you name the brand, if a product sells for $100 in the USA, it will be £100 in the U.K. The British have been getting ripped off for ever.

      @@brianxia are you really asking 'why is there a bubble'?
      1) You can't buy retail
      2) Even if you buy retail, you need to wait several years
      3) If you don't wanna wait you need to pay a premium or 'build a relationship with an AD' Wich pretty much means getting fucked buying shit you don't want.
      4) 4 to 7% yearly increases
      Why is there a bubble? Seriously? The demand is NOT gonna keep up longterm with that kind of practices.

    You have been at the Rolex game long enough. Curious why you didn’t buy the “Hulk” in the last 8 years when no one wanted it and it was a easy below msrp buy in early 2018???? The new 126710BLNR is called “Batman”. Do a “Batman” search on the Rolex website and the new 126710BLNR comes up. Do a search for what you are calling it and nothing comes up. just saying.👍

    I have a Rolex Submariner. It cost me Euros 1000 to have it serviced and took 6 weeks, In the meantime I purchased a Steinhart Ocean One Premium Blue watch direct from Germany which took one week to arrive. and cost Euros 540. It is a homage to a Rolex Submariner. I was just going to use the Steinhart as an every day knockabout watch and keep the Rolex for special occasions. I am now puzzled. Why buy a Rolex? The Steinhart keeps better time than the Rolex, is better looking and is just as well made.

    I've a GMT batman and il never sell it. I've waited so long to find. I just couldn't be bothered if wanted to make on it. I still feel hard done by paying that much for a watch. I've got it on a leather tan strap for summer. And bracelet in winters my day watch genrel wear. Is My tag Heuer Monaco. I actually sold most of my collection. Must be getting old so keeping it to minimum and to be honest. I hate the way Rolex play the market on just selling a watch it's actually sickening. If there was a watch I wanted if one broke or actually got fed up with it. I'd just have a Seiko turtle or monster I feel after I got my batman I was re questioning was I right. And I didn't buy a watch I fel in love with to know I can flip it. If makes sense. I know two people work for Rolex stores and both wear omega. When off True story have a great new year all. I love in Europe. Peace out
