Are you looking for a BLNR or a Deepsea J Cameron Seadweller???

Today I got the call from my long time AD letting me know that my Seadweller 43mm had arrived, so I drove there right away to pick it up. Hurrah! (will post pics on another thread...)

While I was there, he mentioned that he had also received a BLNR and a James Cameron Deepsea Seadweller (!!!), and none of them were spoken for yet.

I thought that I would help my fellow forum members by posting this info, and if interested, feel free to PM me for contact details in case you are looking for one of these two watches.

This is an Authorized Rolex Dealer and not gray market.

Cheers!

Are they firm on selling at sticker price? or some room for negotiation?

I already got the D-Blue. Interested in the BLNR. There are 4 dealers around me that has the watch in stock, but all selling at sticker price. I have read a few posts on the BATMAN thread that people are getting 5-12% off. Not many, but people did get them.

I don't see why an AD would want to let go of a hard to find watch at a lower price. If the supply to them are limited in certain models, keeping the model in stock and displaying it until a sticker paying customer shows up is a smart move for them, no?

I would think so. None of the ADs I saw were offering discounts on the D-Blue. Strangely, they were offering them on the BLNR.

Not even worth the USD to GBP comparison. It's way more expensive plus you need to declare when entering the UK and pay VAT.

Not even worth a thought sadly. Better to wait it out at a U.K AD or pay grey prices.

You might get a discount given it's end of the month, sales folks often looking to increase their revenue.

My AD has a D-Blue SD. I tried it on when I bought my Bluesy. It is a watch I would like to add to my collection at some point.
