Just got home from a.d.

I went to my A.D. today to pick something up, will post pics in a little bit, and could not believe my what I was seeing. In their display case was all 3Milgausses, both SS Daytonas, A DSSD and all the GMT's. The MG GV was already spoken for because if it was not I'd be posting pics. Anyone in the Boston area interested in any of the watches I could hook you up with my salesman. There is a price increase tommorrow. SS Daytona $9925 and no increase on the MG's. Did not ask about the DSSD. First time seeing a GV & a SDDS in person. Wow what a site. Be back on in a bit to post pics

Wow, that is pretty incredible visit to the AD. Outstanding. I have not seen some of the GMT's in 7-8 months...

I wonder whether this is a worldwide increase.
Can anyone advise? I will only know tomorrow when I visit my ADs.

was he selling the daytona for $9925? In other words, he was going ahead and instituting the price increase a day early? Thanks.

No he actually called me today to let me know about the increase. He called me early in the week with a Black SS Daytona, so I should get down there if I wanted to not hit the increase. He also was going to ask the owner to hold the $9200 for 1 more day. Would not give me no discount and this is my 3rd watch from him this year but he got me 3 GREAT watches

Icon5 Very hard to believe. Where are the pics you promised.

It's very hard to believe and AD would have that much hard-to-get Rolex hardware gathering dust in a case.

Where are this pics from your visit today that you promised?

Congrat on the blk ss daytona...

IMO the blk and white ss daytona are two of the best Rolex watch ever made.

Sent PM.
Wondering if you'll be willing to tell me which AD is good in Boston. I'll be visiting Boston for a weekend starting the 10/10.
Thank you very much.
