It would be financially cheaper to buy one on Jubillee and then get another Oyster bracelet brand new for $2000.

Still come out several thousand cheaper and you'll have the exact same thing with BOTH bracelets and the choice to swap them out whenever you wish.

Disposable income, always going to be somebody with a bigger bankroll. Elon might smoke a little to much and drink a lil to much and get on David’s site at 4 am n start firing off dogecoins for anything he wants, you think somebody like that cares about 8k-18k-28k means nothing he’s hitting buy it now and upgrading the already baller shipping as well. Not a flinch.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think billionaires are buying over hyped Rolexes ...I could be wrong... and even if they did want one, they are the what we call around here the “vip” at the ADs. Elon Musk isn’t googling ‘DavidSW’ lmao

Yeah, it’s Archie lol. Discussion of him is frowned upon these parts I’ve come to find out.

I do enjoy watching some of his videos, but beware that he’s not firing on all cylinders at times. He is very knowledgable though when it comes to horology. He’s from Australia btw.

If SAs are getting some kickbacks for each hot watch, what would prevent them from not doing that? Integrity/conscience or $500,$1,000,$1500 per hot watch they sell backdoor to gray dealer?

its obvious ADs in Orlando/Houston is helping out for sure to get all these out on the gray market.

Is it time for us non flippers to offer SA $100/$500 to sell to us....

Billionaires would not be dealing with AD's. They will have an assistant that will get them whatever timepiece they ask for.

I am sympathetic to some of the AD's with their ongoing predicament with the SS models.
"Do I sell to a client with a history, who has proven that they will continue to buy more in the future, or a grey market dealer who will buy the less desirable pieces bundled along with a SS model both of which would improve my bottom line to a greater degree than a new unproven client?"
Tough on both ends, the AD seller and the buyer.

Time equals money, in this scenario; which are you willing to spend, to acquire the Rolex model you desire?

Rolex is no longer within reach for typical WIS from the past years, now it's in the domain of MEGA dollars, there're so much money floating waiting to be made by trading these Rolex. I'm glad I got my Rolex early, now there's no chance I get a SS from my AD even I have very good relationship with my AD. Check this guy's channel out and you have a feel:

People are out to make serious money from trading Rolex and they have very deep pocket, can a WIS keep up???
