New here!

Hello folks, I just joined this forum since I will purchase Rolex soon and have willingness to collect highend watches over the time.

I live in Canada and hope I can share much of information regards Rolex collections

My rolex dealer offered me $23000 for Submariner date two-tone black dial stainless and gold and Datejust 36mm steel and yellow gold
diamond settings in black dial for both me and my wife. The price includes tax, which is 13%. Is this a good deal? or can I do better?
she told me that is 25% off MSRP and yes they are new price from Genuine Rolex dealer

$23,000 appears to be 22% off MSRP to me. But conversion rate to CDN and other factors could be affecting my calcs.

Either way 22-25% sounds fairly good in my opinion.

Welcome to the Forum and lets see some his/hers wrist shots!

Welcome to TRF fellow Canadian ! Sounds like a great deal but I would still get a price at another AD just to compare. Good luck !

Why buy 2 at once? Buy one and enjoy it then move to add another later. No fun in that at all

Great deal!

How come US Rolex ADs can't discount as much as Canadian ADs? Makes me wonder if Rolex strict policy rules only apply to US ADs. :(
