Need some thoughts on this...

Rolex Daytona White 116500LN
-Unworn and brand new
-Box, Papers, Tags, Stickers
-Open Warranty Card (No Name Filled) - Source can have the Rolex AD fill my name on the Rolex Warranty Card.
-Source is a reputable AD of other Swiss Watch brands but not Rolex.
Price ($21,000 - $23,000)

Other sellers on Chrono24 sells this watch with open Rolex warranty card for a little premium more for $24,500 - $27,000.

I have never came across something like this before.

Has any one else seen this before? Any thoughts?

The seller is not a Rolex AD. Where he gets it from he told me it’s from a US Rolex AD. He only adds the premium price on top of MSRP of $12,400.

I told him I received price of $24,000 from a business at Chrono24 located in NYC.

His response was they a little high. He told me he can get me $23,000 maybe better depending when I’m more serious.

White dial with your name on the card for that price, sounds very suspicious

Seems like the seller is simply pricing it to sell. He may want a quick sale, rather than waiting weeks or months. Looks ok, as long as you have some kind of comeback, right of return if you are not happy.

Remember that asking prices are just that, asking prices. Just because watches are listed for $X on Chrono24 does not mean that they actually sell for that.

That’s exactly what the watch is worth.

Paying $20k+ is just disturbing.

Yeah I agree what the Grey market is asking is not what they get. I think Grey sells it for $22K to $24K even if they advertise it higher.
