All Gold GMTc Discounts in USA or Germany?

What sort of discounts have people been able to get off the list price on the all-gold GMTc in the US or Germany?

I recently began to think this was one of the best looking all-gold Rolexes!

What others get is irrelevant.
You should be pushing what you are able to get!

Precious metals have always been known to be negotiable, and if the price you find is less than MSRP, go for it...as there's always someone who's going to report a bigger discount!

A fantastic piece you're after, and best of luck in the acquisition!

One AD I went to offered me 15% off all their YG models... (after a LOT of negotiation).

You can probably get 20% but I dont think not much more off a YG Rolex. Youll have to push hard though.

Also, remember, cash is absolutely king, and its true. So if for example an AD sais they will give you 17% off MAX, try going back another day with the cash equivilant to 20% off and usually they would take it... Once they see your serious usually their mind changes..

I miss mine. Back at home in the safe. I hate international travel. I only bring one watch. Sigh.

Buy it. It's the only gold Rolex I love in Yg

Caymans 20% off and no tax
Can get up to 20% off "usually" for YG. Talking from personal experience and long relationship with my AD

Thanks guys!

I was just looking for a ballpark figure so I know what I might be able to get it for in the US while I'm looking at them in Germany when I go there.

Its much appreciated.

I never thought I would look for a YG Rolex, but this one looks fantastic. I've never seen it in person, though. The ADs I've been to are out.

I was also thinking about the TT GMT. I think the gold numbering on the black bezel looks great with the TT band. Anyone out here own(ed) the TT GMT and have feelings about how you grew to like it more or less and what kind of wrist time it got.

I first bought a ss gmtii c then traded it for a tt. After a number of months passed I then traded my tt for a full yg. Best move I ever made..if you can swing it then go for the full gold..it is a real beauty!
The yg cost 19000 euro on the grey market here in Holland. You will get the best prices from grey dealers...

Got 25% off on mine from my AD but that was 5 years ago.
Rolex has tightened the reigns a bit on discounts since then.
