Anyone can confirm the amount paid at the video duration 3:10 ? I think it was around $9k.


Based on this website retail is $13,420 SGD , so is 30% off?!

Perhaps it was done for image/publicity? The whole thing was filmed after all.

^thats about 13sec/day on average. Not sure if there are lower and higher quality 7750s? For low quality movements that range is expected O guess?

Or it could be slightly magnetised. Magnetism usually results in much higher inaccuracies, as much as minutes a day.

In past AD play no stock game if one ish only willing to pay retail and if pay premium suddenly gotch stock to sell chiu

then since Rolex came out with teh no premium policy ADs resort to such method to offload to their own grey dealer or offload channel

as long consumer hold firm and refuse to buy from these grey let them stuck with teh stock and meantime email Rolex to report about such practices why only always grey seller have so many brand new watches and worst ish local AD set

Try to let your watch coil unwind completely. Then rock your watch back and forth a few times so that the oscillating weight will rotate a few times and recoil the spring
From there, manually wind your watch crown about 20 times and observe the time displacement.

If still bad, then bring it to Gnome for servicing
