Canadian MSRP is $6,260 plus tax, so I think it's a good deal.

Have you explored the option of crossing the border into the States, and coming back declaring it at the border and paying Canadian duties and taxes?

It may be worth your trip down south.

Thanks for the reply;

I was in Maui last week, at a dealer. The best they could do was $5750 plus 4% plus duty plus GST & PST and exchange on top of that.

I was surprised when I was told $5500.00 today at the local dealer.

But I thought some input from the Rolex pros on this fine forum could help my decision.

Thanks

Brett

sounds reasonable. at that price, some in the market are selling second hand with no papers

A pretty good deal, especially if it's an M Series. Go for it.
