Last week I walked past a Rolex store at Wisma Atria and saw the 'Pepsi' (GMT??) going for a whopping $54K!

16-17% discount off for each of the watch? GMT2c black 16-17% off? Zhun boh?

Not sure if many of the peeps here go to AD... I usually go grey... :X

Quoted 10,500 for gmt master black. Unless 12k is not the rrp for gmt master black

$12k RRP for GMT2c? Cannot be...

It was previously retailing at $10,980... even after the (3%?) increase in Oct (according to some forumers), it's still < $11.5k... the Submariner Date's new RRP is $11.4k or so.

But then again, some forumers said it's still $10,980. I didn't follow up with the prices though.

And... the GMT2c is slightly cheaper than the Sub Date.

Grey dealers are people who bring in watches from overseas; I've seen BNIB GMT2c going for < $10k... with 5 years wrty (green hang-tag). Warranty-wise is the same - International wrty for Rolex.

any cheaper if i go to mustafa instead of a tissot boutique?

Btw why so many ppl don't like DW here? :s22:
慕斯达法的天梭表价格已经可算是打了折扣的市场价。但是,只要用心去找,去商讨,肯定能比Mustafa的价格撞出几张红钞,甚至两三张蓝钞票。。。

至于丹尼尔威林顿,多数表款为电子石英表。虽然说机芯是瑞士产,但是价格标价太高了。其售价其实包含广大的推销成本,这成本加在每只产出的表,仔细计算,你也就能猜出一只表的真实销售价格并不必那么高了。
以两三百块一只表的价格,你能在市场上找到廉宜,又可维修的机械表。别把钱花在高度推销的品牌吧。现今时代的消费品,品牌推销得越高,消费者期望越大。要是品质达不到个人要求。。。失望也就越大了。

Watch noob here. Am going to get rolex for myself and wife.

Considering buying from Watch Palace or Hour Glass at Marriott. Any comments on these 2 retailers? Been quotes abt 16-17% discount off RRP for GMT Master 2 black and lady datejust.

Any comments welcomed.

they are legit.

if you don't see the model you like ask for it. sometimes they keep it out of sight.

Translation: The price of Tissot at mustafa is considered as discounted price. However if you go search for it and bargain for it somewhere else, you may find cheaper ones.

As for DW, it's not worth the price tag as you're paying for the marketing and branding blah blah blah...

Congratulations. Hour Glass is very reputable. Don't worry.

Once you build a relationship, more discount your way. Pricing seems very good.

Direct translation:

Mustafa Tissot prices have been discounted in the market price can be considered . However , as long as the intention to go , to discuss , certainly knocked a few red money than Mustafa prices, even two or three blue notes. . .

As Danny Galway Linton , most watches electronic quartz watch . Although the movement is made **in Switzerland , but the price is the price too high. The price actually contain the majority of the marketing costs , which added to the cost of each output tables, carefully calculated , and you can guess the true sales price of a watch does not have to be so high .
A table with two or three hundred block of price you can find in the market, inexpensive , but also the maintenance of mechanical watches. Do not spend it in a highly marketed brands . Consumer modern era , the brand was to sell , the greater the consumer expectations. If the quality can not reach individual requirements. . . The greater the disappointment
