i think its worthy to buy second hand if u intend to wear them (but u must ensure they are
genuine and in prestine condition and that i meant internally mainly)

My opinion: Buy NEW if u intend to keep n collect only.

If I want a yellow gold rolex that is more rugged looking (datejust is just a bit too gentlemanly) which one is the cheapest ah? Would substituting with leather strap make it cheaper heehee. I dun wanna burst 10k

hee maybe i should rephrase abit.

- wat i meant is buy new to keep as collection: ie limited or with exteme values.
- if want to buy and wear for fun then maybe second hand will do with prestine condition la.

*But for me, my watches are for wear even they are NEW

But once worn = visible wear and tear and resale will be low.

- sold some of my collection at lower than average prices because they are visibly worn.

cheers

all depending on ur budget and what you really want...getting a new rolex oyster pro, DJ..going cost you easily >5k now...

if you got a smaller budget and still want a rolex..that airking quite ok becuase of the condition you mention and the seller is ur auntie..
just check how much outside willing to 'eat' incase yuo want sell it away...

Hi bro beng hoo and fellow rolex lovers,

Just to share my joy and pls dun misunderstand that i trying to' how lian' hee...hee

After much consideration and budget wise, i had bought a 2nd- hand Date- just few days back. So happen that during a shopping trip with my mum as she is oso a rolex lover , we passed by and went into a 2nd-hand rolex dealer in town.

We saw a 'boy size'( suitable for me cos hand quite slim) date-just with blue dial roman and I fell in love with it at 1st sight and the rest is history.... Mum manage to bargain the price for me and i bought it on the spot. Quite happy with my first rolex....hee...hee....bought it for $3600/- watch had just been polished and one year warranty from the dealer.( including parts and labour)

He also gave me a warranty card that states that he will 'eat' back the watch for 80% of the sale price if sold back to him within 3 months. I oso visited the pawnshop yesterday and he quoted me $2000/. The pawnshop uncle oso mentioned that the brand new'rolex boy' prices keeps going up recently and 2nd hand' rolex boy' market beri bad now..wow lau eh...sad to hear that!

Anyone can advise whether izzit true that that this model is retailing at ard $6600 after 15% discount at Rolex AD for brand-new ones as mentioned by my mum. Any comments about my purchase? izzit too exp for a watch like that?

Similar to this one- but mine dated in yr 2001.
