Hello, New member with a question on buying my first Rolex

[KevinEvan]

Hello everyone,

I am new this forum and the world of watches. When it comes to buying anything over $5000+ I like to find forums as that is the best place to get honest opinions.

I'm currently in the market to buy my first luxury watch. The watch that I am looking at currently is the Black Submariner 116610 LN. I have found one online with a listed price of $8000 by a company called SteinDiamonds https://www.steindiamonds.com/rolex/...dial-40mm.html. I called them and after talking to them they let me know I can get it for $7500 and shipped to any state except California (I live in Cali so I have to get it shipped to a family member). They said the watch comes with 5 year manufacturer warranty and lifetime warranty that they honor.

I understand that these guys are not official dealers of Rolex. My question would be are they able to sell the watch with manufacturer warranty or can that only be done by Rolex/Rolex dealers? Also, any opinions on SteinDiamonds would be appreciated. I apologize if this is the wrong section to ask this.
