First time Rolex Purchase
hello,
looking to jump into my first Rolex. I am a small collector and looking for a like new rolex that would incredibly easy to liquidate and a great store of value. I have my eye on the Daytona's. Can anyone chime in on which newer models if times get in a pinch would hold it's value the best? Would a Daytona even qualify? thanks in advance |

SS Submariner or SS/Root Beer GMT. SS Daytona (but they aren’t readily available close to list price).

I would go with pre-owned 5 digit sub from a trusted seller.

Daytona = Cosmograph
At MSRP, the 116500LN Daytona in either black or white: - easy to liquidate at the right price - great store value...(its a daytona) - largest $ premium over MSRP But...unless you have great relationship with your AD, it will be extremely difficult to get one at MSRP. Assuming you can get on a "list", which be hurdle, it will still take potentially years. If you do some research, some TRF members, who are not new to Rolex and have significant purchase $$$$$$ history, are waiting 1-4 years, or still waiting. Best of luck |

You realize Chrono 24 is a web site for grey dealers. So, are you prepared to pick up one of those “dime a dozen” Daytona’s for double MSRP?

No offense but sounds like you need to do a lot more research!

go for it, all the best. Remember not selling it once you buy unless you want to upgrade :-)
