16610 Sub no-date

I have been into my AD today and seen a brand new 16610 sub no-date and was just wondering if £3,920 is a good price for it as you can't get them new anymore????


Thanks in advance guys!
Dino

Like other said: you're referring to the 14060M, not the 16610. And the price you list is not a good deal. I can get them new here in the states (Houston, Texas) for $5300, just like the other member said.

5300 USD = 3300 GBP.

Hi Dino

The price you have quoted is the list price, and I was thinking there would be no discount if it had been discontinued but seeing as it's still in the Rolex line up some discount may be able to be had

If not there are a few grey dealer who should have one BNIB at a discount. I have nearly been tempted myself. There are a couple on here from some of our trusted seller

Hopefully someone from the UK will chime in as prices and discounting can vary substantially across countries. I agree that $5300 is achievable in the US (list here is $5825) but that doesn't include tax which (depending on state and city) can add around 7-10%.

Don't expect massive discount, but you should get something off, at least

You beat me to it to remind people that UK prices include VAT ( is it 17.5%?)

It is not a 16610 WITHOUT date, it is a 14060, it is his poor brother and it is also smaller.

Here we go again with the "poor brother" thing!

Could you try to be a little more tactful?

Your SS Sub Date isn't the "poor brother" of the Gold Sub Date, you just prefer SS.

By the same measure the 14060m isn't the "poor brother" of anything!

Good to here! How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? and also pics would be GREAT if you could

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is the 14060m still availiable to buy from new? or are the ones left at AD's just old stock?/discontinued?


Thanks Guys!!!
Dino

X2.. Agreed

But don't worry.. As the 14060 is the (Rich) brother of a Tudor...

I paid £3550 ish but I have built a good relationship with the AD. Due to their turnover of rolex ie 1 a day, they dont normally discount so I am lucky. As for pics, I have taken on of my 14060m on a NATO
