Hi all,

It's me again... asking about the same Milgauss Z-Blue I saw at a grey dealer.

So I went back to the grey dealer and found out that apparently this watch DOES come with a Rolex warranty card. I asked to see the card and it's dated Oct 2017. The dealer claims the watch to be brand new and it still has the original Rolex plastic protective stickers on.

The asking price is just under $7000 USD (tax included), which seems to be well under other grey market dealers.

So knowing all this, is there anything else i should be concerned with (obviously other than only 3.5 years of warranty remain) before I pull the trigger?

Thanks all

Don’t know what availability in AD’s in the USA is for Z.Blue but I picked one up walking into my AD in the UK when I visited to join the list for Submariner LV back in Feb this year. UK retail being £6.3k

$7k is pretty good with 3.5 years left. Is it close to new condition? As a reference my local grey/used dealer has increased as-new Z-blue price by over $1k in the last year (to a bit over what you are stating)

Yes, watch appears to be unworn to me and stickers are still on... so I would think it’s new but who knows...

If it has the warranty card and all protective stickers on including the barcode sticker on the case side, it should be fine. 7k sounds like a good deal in this climate of steel shortage (15% below msrp which 8200 usd). Good luck with your purchase

Sounds like a good deal to me. Grab it if the time is right.

Is the said Grey Dealer listed or discussed in the who's who in the Rolex Forums? If so, I would buy with confidence. $7K is a great deal on a Z-Blue Milgauss. And the watch is amazing!!!!

No he is not listed. This is a local grey dealer in Taiwan.

Also, are new Rolexes supposed to have green hologram sticker on the back of its case? If so, this watch doesn’t have it.

Thanks again all!
