I told my AD whom I have a good relationship wiith that I was interested in a 233. So yesterday It came in and he called. Now here is the dilemma, he won't give any discount, however they will alow me to buy it on my no interest house account.

Won't budge huh? Well, you'll save about 33% by buying used. The 233 doesn't hold its value as well compared to other Pams. That 33% is another Rolex or base Pam. I have a used 111 and it looks great. Wouldn't think twice about buying a used 233.

ASH · 6 February 2009, 12:15 PM

Hey thanks mfer. Do you think the 233 is worth it? I am very happy with my 111 and I just change the strap when I feel like wearing something new. I must be honest I am reluctant to buy used.

IMO the 233 is one of the nicest PAM's out there. GO FOR IT

Pam 233 is a in house mouvement p.2002 caliber witch usualy keep a good value...not right now... but eventually it will. The market price is about 12k. for new but its hard to find a used one...and if you do find one in a jewellery they will sell it for about 10k.
Personnaly I prefere the 233 than the 111...no offense!

Spencer · 6 February 2009, 04:37 PM

I disagree, the 233's seem to hold their value as well as any mass produced PAM's.

I was offered 15% off of a 233 from an AD I've only bought from one before.

GBJIV · 6 February 2009, 04:38 PM

I love the 233 and can't wait to get one!

Trurolexer · 6 February 2009, 08:28 PM

go for it!!!

I had a chance at a 233 last August but I passed to get the DSSD and I bought a 111 instead. Now I still want the 233, however in the state of the economy I would like a discount. The positive to this situation is I can put it on my house account with no interest for 6 months.

I don't know. I'd like a discount, but new isn't everything to me anymore. Used to be.

I love the 233 as well, i'm swapping my 140 for one next week, if you take the credit option then you'll have that payment coming out for a while, if you buy secondhand off Paneristi.com you'll get one for under 10k, the option is yours.

jgk200 · 7 February 2009, 04:18 AM

I'd like a 233 as well... the AD I deal with wouldn't move a penny.... The ones I've seen used are still asking anywhere between 11,500 or 12,500.... I've seen BNIB but, are I's or J's... 14,700..... not sure if that matters but, might as well spend the 14700 for a K at my AD & know what I'm getting no? Any advice on buying used? what to look for??

boa2 · 7 February 2009, 05:47 AM

Plenty of pre-owned 233s around for $9500-10500 from reputable sellers, BNIB for not much more. In this economy, an AD who won't discount has his head in the sand. Just my two cents.

Trurolexer · 8 February 2009, 02:09 PM

270 is GREAT. But I think the price is high. How much for BNIB?
