Rolex prices still going strong globally.
tudor ask u go tidur...wat u expect...haha...
seriously mai dream of getting them at retail without prior purchase.
someone i know spent 25k with cortina on a non-rolex watch.
so he ask what does it take to get a pepsi from the SA.
SA say, buy a Moser watch (which they recently acquired the dealership) and can bundle with a pepsi.
my friend pondered for a day or two, told the SA, it's a go.
but prior the purchase, SA have to ask GM or someone higher up for approval.
got rejected outright.
maybe a pepsi is far fetched but then again, amounting to 50k as a non-rolex purchase, still cant get you anything.
a friend of mine offered to buy 5-6 ladies datejust two tone with diamonds (almost 100k)on the dial and ask for 10% discount + a ceramic daytona as a bundle
the SA say no way that's going to happen. no need ask GM, straight away reject.
so if you think this method works, think again (that was earlier this year, things might change, try your luck if you're prepared to drop 100k)
whine whine whine no use. u want it at retail, buy something to start an account. it would be better if its a non-rolex.
if cannot afford to buy something else to support the AD. suck it up and buy it at reseller prices.
not that i am condoning the reseller market but demand and supply is at play.
same goes for every other commodities out there.
all else fails, choose another brand. don't like? save your cash then.
throw your cash at AD no use, everyday someone like you is waving their cash at them.
welcome to the real world, nobody is going to give you on a silver platter (especially when everyone is asking for the same model you're asking for. there's only so many that can go around each year)
If they make 20 million sub per year nobody will buy the sub
In SG,
AP has a dealership and boutique - thus the situation is slightly different.
Rolex and PP are dealerships only (correct me if i am mistaken)
Thus got to play into their game, what build journey, relationship and etc...
That said, my experience with AP boutique is x10 better than any dealership.
The AP staffs are more sincere and genuinely will help if they can help.
P.s. my total spending at AP is less than 100K SGD and thus, I should not be at their VIP level but still i get slightly better treatment there.
Nobody believe they purposely produce little
Nobody believe they use same tactics like hermes
Very nice watch. What is the dmg?
actually hor...how u post a pix here ah?
i have no idea how...click here click there...cannot...
btw...nice dial...
any hope of getting these two model from AD? Work all my life and would like to own at least one Rolex for me & for wife.

last heard from my sales...a VIP wait for a 38k YM...waited close to 9mths...
understood sport series like Daytona and YM...can really wait for years may still don't get it.
and come on lah...everyone work for all their life lah...this is not a reason to own 1 lah...
u no purchase history...i think lagi slim chance...good luck
dun seem to be able to show here but rather right click to open another tab to show...
but anyway...thanks for advising...will explore more next time...
coz i new in HWZ
hahaha, have been been eyeing a Rolex when i started work but due to financial commitments so have to give up hope. I just want to buy one enough liao, I already pass 1/2 century mark so getting back what is mine, looks like have to get from grey market or good used one.
beside the Japanese portion...i not sure...
but Rolex capacity is abt 900k pieces per year across all model.
this is a very skilled industry...and they wun wan mass produce...once mass, rolex is gone...
and yes, GMT under sport series...u can forget it.
nowadays there is a saying...if u enter any AD in town or airport or anywhere in the world...u go in n juz ask, got sport series, if they have(which is unlikely)...dun care smlj sport series...juz sign n take n go...cannot ponder...hahahaha
i see, will be going for Family trip to Sapporo early Dec this year, next time may not have chance to have whole family of 6 going together, told wife maybe can look for some good condition used one over there.
boss...unless u go for Date Just...even Date Just is running low.
sports is unlikely from AD...and grey is marking up pretty high...
everyone financial commitment is differ...so if you are better off now...perhaps take a tour in Swiss...see can find or not lor...hehehe...also enjoy Swiss...fantastic place...
i am not sure the price for rolex in Swiss...but i check out the IWC, knn...they selling more than SG AD...
