Thread all abt ROLEX - Part 2

[chows99]

previously discussing how much the original owner of the Tudor gold watch would lose when he buys at retail and tries to sell it. This gives a good idea:

Check out 'Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight 58 79018V 18K Yellow Gold', available at S$15,500 on #Carousell https://carousell.app.link/nWEjnmLFrwb

Current bundle requirements no longer justify flipping premiums.

don't be shocked leh. obviously will lose min half la.
you think only consumer greedy? AD also greedy. not just KHH, Cortina, THG all same

that tudor, 8k i also won't touch

Especially Tudor, Hublot, FM, from ADs all cannot touch..they belonged to the touch me not categories…

Is it because of the market now, or you won’t have touched it even before the drastic correction?

what about omega, Cartier, jlc etc, still can touch?

don't touch, don't get allocation simple as that. AD not dumb
but hublot definitely a easier sell than that tudor

i don't buy from AD, i lazy play games. but that tudor, its going to be a hardsell above 8k
8-10k to a regular consumer, buy rolex better.
for a seasoned collector, much better watches out there.

Sincere would probably have a higher chance.
I heard that they could not cope with the orders so have to stop it. The bracelet and the dial is truly amazing.

GXGX really very chio

hopefully they open up orders again this year. Must ask my friend help me get liao.. he big spender at Sincere

If you got $32k, would you rather spend on a Moser streamliner/Czapek Antartique or go grey and buy a Blue Skydweller?

For me, I would buy blue sky dweller, get ws pro for protection and enjoy the wrist time while waiting for the opening of order Moser. I had dealt this piece when it was at $42.5k and current price seems fair as low chance for allocation from AD. If decided to go for Moser in the future, just resell it. Probably won’t lose much. Not too sure abt Czapek..

lol depends what kind of "collector" you are.

Haha the max loss I ever took was a 4.8k one to build profile for Pepsi. 12-13k, no way man. And if it’s the guy who used this to bundle for Rootbeer, even lagi not worth it
Come to think of it, Sep 2022 set. If I didn’t rem wrongly, it was around this timing that the guy posted the Gold Tudor in exchange for the Rootbeer on Facebook

Chiu laugh at him wait teh orchard road AD unhappy lol…

Haha I’m sure the orchard road AD is more than happy when his customer willing to buy a huge loss making Tudor gold watch in exchange for a Rootbeer.

GMT 116710LN & Explorer 2 Polar - Which is a better option?
& Which is better value?

GMT 116710LN & Explorer 2 Polar - Which is a better option?
& Which is better value?

The gmt 116710ln not in production.
Looks like a sub with gmt.

Polar. Not all like the tool looks. But i tink its cool. Though i like it in black dial.

The gmt will be stable in resale price unless its being revised back to current production line up.

Polar all along can buy below retail but like many lolexes in past few yrs r difficult to buy and values shot up.
