AD bundling is getting absurd. Eat a gold Tudor 58 at 23k+ to get a half gold Rootbeer.
The premium for Rootbeer is only $8-9k on secondary market. Really chop to the max.
Lol. KHH offered this deal to one of my friend

That Tudor the guy posted is 23k?!
Yes, it is a full gold Tudor BB. Very few people will actually buy a Tudor watch at 23k. Tudor resale value quite poor, even for the reportedly more popular SS models. For eg the BB 925 Silver was quite popular when released, 6k at retail. Now I check, a one year old piece at grey market is selling at only $4600. So you can imagine how much loss that guy will take on the full gold 23k watch.

The 925 Stirling silver dropped because of tarnishing. I think the gold piece is overpriced and the yellow gold is too glaring with green dial..

I got the 925 piece. Bought from WOS. Not part of any bundle deal but I bought it cos I thought it quite refreshing to have a watch in silver and the taupe dial is quite nice. But the resale price sibeh chui. Anyway I think in general Tudor doesn’t hold its price well in resale. Even one of their more popular model like the BB GMT Pepsi has also dropped quite a bit. My friend was still telling me last year that he thinks Tudor will become the next Rolex. I think still very very far from it. Lol

Due to bundling of tudor with Rolex, it affected Tudor’s value. People sell to dealers at dirt cheap price as their aim is rolex. As long as there is bundling, Tudor’s value will not hold.

I had BB58 blue dial on blue strap and wanted to buy the 925 Stirling silver and matches with grey strap but was stopped by AD. If you like to play around with straps, vanguard straps have cheap and nice one for Tudor.

Agree.. just go grey now. Regulars will get more calls for watches soon. With the dipped prices, there’s no point for new entrants to AD

Lol 15k. You don't know how Grey dealer works then
They wont even take it even at 10k
About 1k-1k plus margin or so i thought. Anyway I did a consignment with a grey dealer for a DJ SS before and they mark up about 1k.

How come stopped by AD? though matching with straps is rather common.
