Rich people don’t bother with using watches as investments lah. Talking about the truly rich, not 7-figure bank account type rich.

It’s middle income play middle income.

what i mean, they are bored with life.

nothing much to do.

They see people craze about rolex, they buy and buy to disturb the market :s13:

use $$$ to make fool on people. :s13:

Hi,

Can I ask what the typical discount the retailers are giving now for Rolex Datejust series? What’s the max?

Thanks

You know something is coming when resellers post on their IGs the subtle message that

"historically, rolex prices have never gone down over the years"

I agree with the statement if what they meant was RRP. But crazy resell prices these past 3 years will fall back to near RRP for most models in 3 years.

We come to a time where even datejust do not get discount at local ADs, citing the "lack of supply and high in demand" :s13:

Dunno to laugh or cry~ :s22:

Rolex is a want and not a need.

There is many other brand to wear , infact how many buy rolex cos it retain value not because they like the design ?

a ton + logo

but to some, they want to buy a luxury piece or rather a expensive watch to wear but is not a WIS, so they naturally think of rolex, the one brand they know.

and if **** goes south, they can offload it and get back, maybe at least 65-70% (for non sports) or 85% sports of the price they paid for.

win win for them. but the WIS, where got think of lose money.

cannot generalise in 1 go.

Its not only that... Nowadays the AD don't even care abt any customer service at all... They ignored me on all fronts after I missed their new tudor boutique opening 2 months ago. Wow its quite unbelievable how arrogant they have become from the constant bootlicking

definitely no.

dont overpay just becos they provide installment, they already mark up overly high for you to enjoy 0% installment.
