Really?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...:X:RTQ:US:1123
Would you believe this dealer offered to trade this Daytona, I think it is a 2004, for four watches I own PLUS 8K! A 1977 GMT Master 1675 with all original boxes and paper that I bought new, just serviced 3/21/12. a 1972 TT Datejust 1601 with Jubilee bracelet, just serviced 1/24/12, and two very nice collectibles. A 1945 Rolex Oyster Centregrah, and a 1952 LeCoultre Memovox. Both are original except the crystals and leather bands were replced. What is it with a used Daytona? Did Paul Newman give his blessing to everyone that left Rolex? |

He said he picks up GMT 1675's all day for $3000. I'll bet they are really nice and he will even take the back off to show you the movement is real Rolex.

If he's so smart, perhaps he bought the 116520 for $5,000. Still selling it for $12,000 though. Your watches could go for over $12,000 themselves, subject to originality and condition. A $3,950 trade-in offer is a bit, well ....... |

Apparently Florida guys especially Naples, know something the rest of us neanderthals don't. For a mass produced watch that is made to the same standards as every other Rolex, that offer is not even an insult because it is so stupid. I just looked on Ebay. There is 1322 Daytona watches for sale.

While the offer was dumb, what's the expression? If you don't ask, you never know?

Well it does have a "meteorite dial"...
That's quite an offer he gave you, I hope you'll give it a good thought!

A "Full Rolex Service" and a 1 year warrantee. I thought RSC gave a 2 year warrantee.
