I feel exactly the same. None wear watches and really don't care about them.

I wonder how many ss Daytonas making it out of the AD gets worn ? 30% ?

SS Daytonas are the biggest safe queens in Rolex history .

I wear mine, but it’s not my favorite watch for a daily. It is fun to wear on occasion though.

I wouldn't be shocked if we saw an increase in second hand availability of quite a few different Rolexes, as I think dealers/individuals who sell may buy models in the anticipation that they are discontinued, and they may move them when they are not. To my understanding, the YouTube kept talking about the Daytona being changed so it may have spurred some buying of these exclusively for financial purposes.

While a lot of Rolexes seem to be bought and sold exclusively for financial gain, this reference is probably frequently used for that purpose...which sucks for those who want one to actually wear like it was intended to be.

I would not be surprised if some of the 1 year old stickered Daytonas for sale have had 5, 10, or even more owners.

I have now contacted about 5 vendors on 2 listed watches and none had them. This site has so many bogus listings. Hopefully most people know this by now. And don’t reference the listing prices.

sell now cheap only to buy it more expensive later down the line... we are in a correction. by the end of the summer, you will see it right back to where it was before (February 2022).

I only ever look at UK listings as that’s where I live.
There are 58 in the Uk and that’s been similar for a while.

Keep in mind many Chrono24 listings are actually ghost watches
