I would never buy on 47th.
Cool to look around for fun on 47th but I would stick with an AD or a trusted TRF seller.

Oh wow! I can't believe I almost missed an option of buying from TRF! Holly crap, that was a close one!
You guys rule, thank you for the input. Next time we all meet, the first round is on me. |

this is an old post but I walked in and out of 47th street not finding what i wanted and on the very last stop i found the chocolate daytona i wanted. the guys said 20k and i said the money i would pay would insult you - he said how much? i said 18k. 18700 it's yours.
I could have gotten it a few hundred cheaper, but 18700 is a great deal and i've worn the watch 7 months now - only seeing 18k prices very recently - still a 20k + average pre-owned. |

Contact one of our top sellers and describe the exact watch you are looking for. They will probably have it or get it for you in a short while.

ive had some issues on 47st. lost several k and a watch. i would NEVER buy a watch like that again.
bobswatches.com they have the three day examination, one year warranty and its good service, same day shipping and perhaps most importantly guaranteed all rolex parts. |

Use a Trusted Seller. Like stated above I wouldn't buy anything on 47th Street unless you really know someone there.

I would rather buy from anyone else other than a 47th Street shop, unless you are very familiar with them. Either check on here for a trusted seller or check with an AD that buys and sells pre-owned. Most of those type of AD's know what they are doing and often have good buys... IMHO

I've requested info and quotes from DavidSW on here and he's awesome. I have to go with the folks on here, the TRF recognized sellers are the way to go. I buy from our community.

Agreed I bought my Daytona from exclusive time on 47th street. Yup, walked right in off the street after stopping in 10 places. We struck a deal and I bought it. Great price and when I stopped in 4 days ago to shop he offered to polish the buckle which had a few desk dive scratches. I'm pleased.
