Pricing is changing weekly at this point. $14-$15 is what wholesale market is paying these days. Just offered one yesterday (white) for $15.5--pass. Should be closer to retail in the next 45-60 days based upon what I've seen in past three weeks.

ya, a lot doesnt make sense about that FS listing. lawrenceb has had one for sale since yesterday at 19k and there is one on ebay for 19.995k. they havent sold and this one sells for 18k in 30 min? seems fishy. someone willing to pay 18k wouldve bought either of the other watches for another $1000.

Kind of a joke. The flippers better cash in quick because these are becoming more available quickly. The up charging won't last long

It's a crappy year for Swiss watches. Rolex needs to milk the DBlue and Daytona C to the max to make up for everything else.

x2. Someone is going to get burned badly trying to do it. Flipping is like trying to catch a falling knife.

List price and anyone paying any extra for what in the real world is just a push on ceramic bezel and a tiny difference in the dials.IMHO must be sixpence short of a shilling, but it's there money there is a saying a fool and his money is soon gone.

Just FYI, on an omega I was considering I had the AD asking for double msrp. They are also a Rolex AD. No idea what they are charging for the Daytona as I stopped using them after that stunt. But at the time they would not commit to msrp on the Daytona.

No regulation of this type of thing. Sellers can claim it is sold at x amount to bring up the price. Msrp is the best price to start
