Thread all abt ROLEX

[Ed.YEO]

why they will toh ?

行入買撈嘅，就笑面迎人。。。尤其係國外客，如印尼華僑。
本地人入去買普通牌子，包含“挑多，噢米搞”，一傾價就“俾個酸梅面”。咁樣做生意。。。挑!係我都行多幾步去祺興行啦～～～

雖然兩兄弟，一個天卻一個地。。。唉。。。真係越老越唔掂。

i've spoken to a few ADs.

if want sub no date, hour glass is the only AD you got chance if you dont have prior purchase history. any models above that, they need manager/director sign off. and even then, you might still wait a veryyyy long time and slim chance. but the slightest of chance is there. that's how THG works and they're the biggest, watch palace/cortina etc even harder dont need talk

long story short, if you want a sports model, buy a datejust for your father mother girlfriend boyfriend husband wife, build a relationship then slowly you can get. otherwise, just pay market price

can confirm for THG, wife’s friend walked in asked for ND and got it the next day

don’t know why some want to act so mysterious when they only get their ND after waiting for a few months

was it recent?

when i ask for it, the SA like abit smile and say im a blank piece of paper and got to wait. ask me to consider buying other watches like sinn first. my prior purchase of blackbay under watches of switzerland is not counted although its under thg.

i text her a couple of times to follow up but she's really not keen so i deleted her off liao.

sua, shld be getting a pre-owned but condition is quite mint SD4k (non ceramic) pretty soon. see too much watches for the last few mths until headache.

THH lost their AD about 2 months back. heard Rolex wanted them find a new location but they couldn't

actually what happened to Sincere AD? Quite big dono why they lost it

Hearsay, thh are forced to remove and covered up the rolex area and they still have Rolex watches available for sale mostly datejust but the warranty card can only be dated 31 march. Discount levels i wouldn't mention here, but way higher than the rest. Fire sale to clear remaining stock i would say.

yup, 3 months back
tbh given the current situation of SS models now, personally feel its really better off to be looking into the vintage market.
i think the 16800 is a great buy right now

im getting the 16600, i like the newer 116600 but prices is damn ridiculous.

 

[TheBaldMan]

As i grow older,the date just seems to look attractive to me.With the fluted crown.

when young like

daytona

when old like

date just

conclusion : i dislike complicated dial. (someone pointed out it is due to weaker eye sight)

was eyeing the 116600 myself too, but went for the batman instead, that was before basel 2019 lol

16600 is also a good buy

wah. congrats on the fast move.

both 116600 and the batman is a very good buy, so either one u hoot also wont go wrong, both discon and very hard to get already unless pay ridiculous premium.

Nothing left at all though. I went down a day before their preview VIP sale, got this dealer buying like 30-40 Datejust lol

Then the remaining discount level was 20%+

 

[jameshkh]

sighhhh really just want a blue Datejust 41. the more I look at it on IG, the bluer my balls get.

not really interested in any other Rolex models. and don't want to support grey market.

bought an IWC from the AD, but still seems impossible to get the allocation.

the grey prices for this haven't gone mad yet so there's still chance.

i quite like it also especially the one u mentioned the blue fluted.

 

[discoburg]

Sad but true its a realistic world out there. Went to the Rolex store in ION, the SA there told me that they are not taking in any more in the waiting list.

I wanna put my name down for the sake of putting also got rejected ah.

no use one lah, its a realistic world out there.. unless u buy a few from them then your chances is higher.

i did put my name down but i reckon it's pretty much useless, u won't even know if the SA will put u in after u walk out.

 

[discoburg]

Queue as in putting your name down and wait la.

How long have you queued for your Sub?

You can't queue. You have to place name and wait.

i know right. blue dial, fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet.

i dont wanna support grey not because of the price, but just outta principle. some say that's lame but oh wells.

try cortina.
the wait shld be shorter for the dj 41.

 

[hwaa]

tried it at a grey shop last few days, non jubilee but still nice. but towards the end got turn off abit becos tio asked to be careful and dont scratch the watch.

actually wanted to go cortina to put name for this on jubilee but then chanced on a quite good deal pre-owned 16600, decided to go for the latter.

bobian.

i came across someone saying.

rather than random buying to support the AD.
maybe its worth just to pay the premium to get what u really wanted.

food for thought.
