Anyone know a timeframe? I can't wait to my hands on the new gray blue yachtmaster!

tkerrmd · 20 March 2016, 12:58 PM

Usually August-September

Dusko.Popov · 20 March 2016, 01:34 PM

Talked to my ad today. He mentioned that allocation for the states would be after Asia and Europe. He thought September-October.

He also said that despite the high consumption economy here in the states, that Asians, on average, purchased Rolex' exponentially more. Was moderately surprised to hear that.

Well either he's a liar or bad at math, likely the latter.

For the new Daytona, Hodinkee have said end of the summer. I cannot answer for the Yachtmaster but I would imagine a similar release date.

Early to mid-July in Switzerland (my experience)

Well what is fact is Asia is the largest market (50%) for Swiss watches in value as reported by the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry. Here's the source: http://www.fhs.ch/eng/statistics.html

Of course there's no report by brand alone but the AD may not be entirely wrong either.

SC11 · 21 March 2016, 06:21 PM

No you are all wrong it's August the 28th at 10:11 they are released!

I wouldn't doubt it much if the Asian market bought more Rolex than North America at some point. My 2c.

Rolex sells way more watches in HK/China than the USA or anywhere else. Has been like that for some years.

WBA_Daytona · 21 March 2016, 08:12 PM

Hi guys! Spoke to my AD in Rome - Italy and told me for the Daytona mid June. Let's hope it will be like that because I'm already on the list for that black & white version.

Dilinger · 21 March 2016, 08:16 PM

In Athens it's gonna be July first batch and September second batch.

THIS

Thats the same for 80% of the well known High End brands

Racerdj · 21 March 2016, 08:39 PM

From my experience when the RG Sky-Dweller was introduced, mine did not come in until early November. Some Botiques received the item late August here in the USA.

I was referring the the notion that rolex sells "exponentially more" in Asia. I suppose outside of mathematics, the term gets thrown around frequently. I'm certainly aware that Asia is the largest market for luxury goods.

Abdullasaif · 21 March 2016, 11:50 PM

Around October here

Please don't bring mathematics onto this forum Tom, I thought this was a safe haven.
