What happens before a Rolex watch is discontinued?

My AD was still getting in the 116500 Daytona’s well after it was discontinued along with the 126500 Daytona’s. Rolex simply will exhaust all supply via AD channels when its discontinued.

There’s too many variables here. I guess whether it dries up before being pulled depends on how popular it was in the first place?

Value sometimes spikes, sometimes doesn’t. For example the 116710ln went nuts in 2019 from being not all that on demand and asking selling for around £6-7k to being bandied around at £9-11 k within weeks. I should know I had the choice of it or 114060 the week before. I chose the sub! GMT black nothing for me but I love the sub so it’s so personal and it is what it is.

So it depends… most of the good folks on here would advise you to buy what you like and take it from there.

Milgauss never really hit its ceiling as prices were already done by down when was discontinued. So thing quirky and different could be a future classic. VTNR, BLRO, mint green skydweller, datejusts, possibly? Seadweller 4k ceramic is good value and probably a future classic. But already gone. If we had a crystal ball it’d be great.
