Hi guys,

Had a brief telephonic chat with my AD yesterday. He informed me that the new SD would be in his store by August at a phenomenal list price of NZ$12,300 (about US$ 9,800)

Thank you very much.....for HALF that bloody price, a brand new SS Sub-date would do me nicely!!

Cheers - JJ

harvey · 20 April 2008, 04:41 AM

jj is that list price or his inflated price? u can get a ss sub date for half of the new sd?

in the uk ive heard its going to be about 4700 pounds, the ss sub date is about 3100.

That price on the new SD of NZ$12,300 is going to be the AD List Price - no discount.

I can get a brand new 16610 for approx. half that price in NZ Dollars.

JJ

PS: 1 NZ$ = 40 p or 80 US cents.

Hi JJ,
Just a quickie before dinner,
Thats alot of cash for a fryingpan with a strap on it.

So glad I did as you and many others suggested and went for the current SD to pick up in dec.

See you all tomorrow

Did you put Zemima's name down for it?

You never know, for that price they might throw in a free gift.....maybe a Rado!!!!!

You will not regret it. The current SD is and will be a iconic classic timepeice

My AD mentioned he was hoping for late June/early July--I think that's quick, but I can't wait.

Hey Mike, you might even be the very first guy on this forum to own one!!

2careless · 20 April 2008, 06:18 AM

JJ, that 12.3k NZD is GST included right?
Also, does Mansor ship the box out via mail separately, as a "value added service"?

Yes, all inclusive - final, out-the-door price - no discount!!

No, Mansors does no shipping due to insurance "headaches". He sells directly out of shop. If you come to Auckland, you could take one out TAX FREE which would save you quite a bit.

2careless · 20 April 2008, 06:27 AM

Thanks JJ, Argh, I mean only shipping the box, papers etc. I would wear the piece.
The ADs in HK and Singapore ship the box out to my home address as "extra service" so that I don't carry the box in my baggage.

fear · 20 April 2008, 06:35 AM

Wow that's fast. I suppose those who want a new SD should do so now.

SPACE-DWELLER · 20 April 2008, 06:52 AM

JJ, I have the sneaking suspicion that you're going to pick up an SS Sub Date very soon...

Anyway, the DSSD is said to hit Denmark in September. Let's see. The Milgauss GV was going to hit Denmark in September 2007, but did not appear on the Danish market before December.

Andad · 20 April 2008, 07:01 PM

Hi JJ,

My AD in Adelaide has give me a price of Aus$11400.

BiG JeEzY · 20 April 2008, 07:15 PM

Hmmm, if it hits Auckland and the rest of Oceania at around the time of August, I expect the United States might have them at around the same time or slightly thereafter.

I have a feeling that there will be waiting lists generated for this model as well as soon as it first hits the ADs.

Just a wee bit more expensive than our price if you convert your Aussie dollars to Kiwi dollars at the rate of.....1NZ$ = 87 A cents.

timackerman · 21 April 2008, 09:13 AM

Wow, they are showing up pretty quick eh!

So we should have some good pics by the end of summer

SSD · 21 April 2008, 11:30 AM

I hope a watch THAT big (and expensive) doesn't hit ANYTHING too hard. If it doesn't leave a mark, it'll definitely dent your wallet!

topcat30093 · 22 April 2008, 06:00 AM

Has anybody heard when the 1st DSSD's will arrive in the uk?
