Tudor pelagoes- much smarter clasp system, impressive water resistance
Blancpain fifty fantom, Omega seamaster (pro 300m, seamaster 300, planet ocean, james bond blah blah), Grand seiko very accurate spring drive and lower depth resistance
Many other brands out there that have really good specs and wearability

Will love to see your collection.

I saw from another youtube channel where this content creator was discussing the possibiltiy of Rolex introducing the new policy of instructing their AD to only allow customer to buy Rolex watches in order to journey for the highly sought after Rolex models. Journey with other brands to get the sought after Rolex sports models may not be allowed any more. Is this rumour likely to come true?

Hi guys those who know please kindly share. Pm if not convenient to share publicly. Is 100k purchase history enough to get Daytona allocation at AD? Thanks

I think unlikely too...but it has spread around quite a bit, so not sure if the rumours are credible...
Or wonder they could do like Patek? AD to send the customer details upon a purchase to PP Geneva? For sure not easy to enforce

Honestly just buy from grey. Daytona price has crashed a lot recently. Some two tone models near msrp already. But if it’s me, for chronograph I rather get a VC overseas 5500v at that price point.

AD told me rolex singapore personally tell them, let new customers have a chance, do not use tudor as package ( u know who i talking about ). but how will rolex know? say no tudor package.. the shop can 1 mth sell customer 1 pc.. after 5 mths ( 5 pcs tudor ), they sell 1 rolex also like tt... consider package? lol

This AD is the one who only sells Rolex and Tudor right? If they stick to this new policy, who is going to buy their Tudor? Lol. Reason their sales for Tudor is flying is due to possibility of bundle to get Rolex. I think this AD say say to you only. Don’t think they will follow the instructions from Rolex SG. For sure they will know a way to circumvent around it.

See their tudors classic. Half priced on carousell also difficult to move out.

No offence to tudor. Their sports models mostly are hits. But their classics in singapore becoz of overbundling. Loses value totally.

sky blue? no
pepsi? no
sub? yes
Yup the above is correct. And black sub.. not Starbucks..

Sky blue is the second toughest behind daytona due to low boutique allocation. Don’t even need to think.. per year only 1-3 pieces pre Covid.. post Covid don’t need to think also know how tough.

Agree. Tudor classics totally CMI. Even DJ TT classics i would say look better. And Tudor sports models cannot be used to bundle for Rolex watches.
