If can wait. Lets wait.
I wish to get the rootbeer and the 2t skydweller this yr too. Aim 2t this yr as its more realistic to get than ss. Hee.

I wont mind a 2t sub as well. I need to add more. Hehe. Only have a sd43. And loving it. The weight is just awesome. Once get used to heavy watch. Difficult to look at light ones currently. Lol. Hence now aim 2 tones.

Tbh. Love the rosegold so much now. Really cant wait for a rootbeer

Patience. But i doubt prices will ease. Maybe small dip but eventually rise or stable.

Many many people like you and me love rolexes. Hee.

Meanwhile rotating my sd with my aaron kwok hydroquest. Hee.

And hope for the rootbeer and the 2t skydweller. Maybe then i might really turn my back on ss models then

why would you wanna go for servicing just because warranty is ending? rolex technician that i know of used to tell me if your watch is working fine even after 10 yrs, no need to go servicing. they minimize opening the backcase of their own watch, because once you open, fine dust will enter in. but then, without us these people going servicing, rolex wouldnt have so much extra money to earn.

Just found out that Hour Glass doesn’t do resizing of Rolex without bringing a guarantee card plus you have to wait a few days. This is quite different from a few years back when they would readily assist to resize the watch. Quite obvious they don’t want to do so but seriously, with so many sales people doing nothing in the show room plus you are an AD, you should be okay providing this service.

They do.. if you are their customer. But if you buy grey and expect them to help? That’s a joke.

They didn’t even ask if I was a customer. If don’t want to help, then don’t be an AD. This is part and parcel of the AD’s job. Also if they have Rolex models to sell, feel free to call me :) right now got zero men’s sized models to sell.
Anyway, in time, I believe all these middle men will be taken out - just like what AP has done. Just a matter of time only.

yup, coz not all staffs are knowledgeable till can use naked eyes and see if the watch is a fake. hence now everywhere practice is to make sure you have a G card when you do resizing.
they help la, but they also will check the serial no. whether its bought from them and how come is another person bring here to resize instead of the former buyer.

About 7-8 years back when I brought my watch to them, they just adjusted happily and service was good. Seems like now they are getting arrogant just because demand is high. Bringing warranty card fair enough, but to have someone wait a few days? That is clearly just a way to try to avoid the task.
