Rolex 50mm Deepsea Challenge

[jimmyp11]

I am pondering on a 126067 purchase and was curious on others thoughts on the pricing. So not a question of love it or hate it. Just a question on pricing. I will never get the "call", so my options are the grey market dealers.

These don't seem to be hot sellers, yes I know limited quantities, but they don't fly off the shelves.

So where did the $45k price come from? Did the greys have a powwow, spin a wheel and pick $45k? Why not $35K, or why not $65k?

I assume if they stop current production on the 126067, the price will increase, in theory, barring WWIII?

Just curious where this number comes from?

Thoughts?
