Got a call for a new 116610LV
I spent the last week going to ADs looking/begging for a hulk but no luck.
Today I received a call from a jewelry store that had one just in from a customer for $10,660 .... My options: 1- buy it for a premium. 2- wait for my AD to call in 2 weeks for $9,460. 3- wait for the new year maybe prices will go down? The problem is that I’m on 3 lists already, and I don’t know if I will receive one yet especially if I let this one go to another guy. What if I pay they premium ($1,300) only to receive a call a couple of days later Appreciate your input |

Option 2.
$10,660 is not a good price. You can easily find a watch at the price anywhere. Option 3, is not likely happening. I don't think Rolex will have a price reduction. |

What's the $9,460 price. The AD price should be $9,050 plus any taxes.

I love this watch but do not pay a premium now, if US ADs can still get this then give them a few weeks at least.

If you buy it now, Barnum was right.
Wait. |

You should go with option 1 and give me the number of the AD so that I can proceed with options 2

Either #2 or #3 will be a better choice than #1.

Based on all the Hulk incoming, I don’t believe there is a shortage. I waited a month for mine.

Wait for the new one to arrive in a couple weeks and save $. Two weeks is nothing compared to some of the other wait times I see quoted. The LVc is a great watch! Post pictures when you get it. Cheers!

Is this a joke? You can wait a lousy 14 days??? Pay the premium. Just thinking about it tells me you deserve to get your pants pulled down. |

Patience is a virtue. #2 After that you'll have a nice start for the next watch.

$9,460 is a good price. I would wait for that one.
There have been grey sellers offering for as much as $11,500 brand new. Pre owned units go as cheap as $8,900 to as ridiculously high as $10,500. I like the Hulk and I will eventually buy one, but I'm not willing to buy it at those premiums. If I could get one for $9,460, well and good. If not, I'm going to keep waiting. |
