Submariner LV (Hulk)
Hi everyone.
Is it me or is the price for this Sub LV a rip-off on the grey market? Just look at at how much more it is than the MRP! http://www.watchfinder.co.uk/Rolex/S...40/item/103419 |

I was going to say the Grey's have been adding a considerable margin for ages so nothing new here..........then I clicked on your link to Watchfinder and nearly fell off the chair. £9250 is the highest I've seen by a mile! I bet it will still sell quickly.......

I agree. I paid $8,000 cash for my Brand New LV sub (came with card & coffin only).
I recently saw them selling for 11k. What??? I think I like that, for sure! |

3k mark up!!!! Oh my god. No surprise though! The shortage of SS models and the constant rumours of the LVc being discontinued.

I hear some ADs only receive 1 or 2 pieces per year.
I am still waiting... |

I guess not enough people have negative opinions... More seriously, pretty much any watch has haters, the Submariner, Daytona, DateJust and any other Rolex included. Not sure what is your point. |

OK...are you seriously just now noticing the secondary market pricing of the LV-C?
Have you been under a rock the last couple of months? |

I picked mine up at MSRP last month. It is around the same time when prices were increasing. I stopped by the AD this past weekend and someone else working there was commenting about how they have buyers offering $2k more than MSRP. I think it is a bit of exaggeration.
No clue as to why people believe this item will be discontinued though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
