I have nothing to base this thought on, but is it possible Rolex is making Daytonas as fast as they can? Could an AD who gets say, 24 a year, sell 20 of them gray market, say 1k over MSRP. In return the gray market dealer continues to take a dozen slow movers off their shelves? The remaining 4 go to the AD's VIP's. If Rolex were only making a few of these a year why wouldn't they market to that? "The Daytona, manufacted in very limited quantities."

I hear lately that many AD's will not sell without the stickers being removed, cases engraved or hold warranty cards for a year or two. Again I have nothing to base this thought on but could they be protecting their market to the gray market dealers?

Just thinking aloud. Huge congratulations to all of you that have gotten 116500's. Great looking watch, I'd love to have one!
