Hi bros, i'm looking for a Rolex Air-King / gmt master II - batgirl/pepsi / sub-no date. i'm new to the scene but wishing to get my first Rolex.

Hoping to buy at retail from an AD and have visited a few. Any advice on any potential AD that i can visit or anywhere that i can get at a close to retail price for those?

Thank you in advance.

Read the last 3 pages on the supply of SS sport watch, and you pretty much know you can give up hope liao

Actually for the models you mentioned, there’s an AD located in Jurong island that might have. It’s called YMH.

You can go to the AD and buy a few watches from Ulysse Nardin, Roger Dubuis or Jaquet Droz. You will get the call maybe in a few weeks for the Air King.

Guess the best reply is to do ur leg work n approach the AD themselves? But I did saw alot of such bling bling models on display though.

Good luck!
I done my leg work, this one is difficult to find together with that Aubergine dial, Roman numerals rather than diamonds.
You are right, a lot of DJ model on display... gold, half gold, diamonds ... but there are those that are really difficult to find..😂
The chocolate dial still can find..😂

Yeah I also think the current price is nuts. That’s why I’m hoping it will go down.
Bro if you are willing to pay 17-18k for a no date sub, just go for the 116610LN for less instead.

Or rather you top up 7-8k more for a pepsi. That amount of premium for a plain sub is crazy man.

Will wait. Almost bought a Pam with the money as I couldn’t get the sub.wife advised me to just splurge on the watch I want instead of just getting any for the sake of buying.
wait abit, or buy a 114060, i think 15-16k can get new

maybe buying a nice Pam could be a better choice than overpaying for a hyped sub which in teh past nobody cared and only car salesmen wanted...ish rike seeing so many subs on wrists in public and knowing chiu overpaid for one...notch tat nice feeling whereas if chiu realli rike teh Pam...at least chiu gotch it at a discounted price

My wife asked the same qn as your wife, they are just that simply good right? *lol* I almost sway to GS or Omega but in my humble opinion, Sub n Pam like totally different style wor.

My thoughts are that just go for it, if you really like a Sub. No matter what watch you buy, you will keep on thinking and going back to the Sub if u really like it. I feel that the ND premium is not that bad. Wear it for 5 years and it should cover back

Maybe after buying, it didn't really feel that awesome, you can still sell it without loss haha
