I am just curious about the Daytona prices complains.
Lets think of this situation...
If you had a Daytona (lets just say lnib, current msrp:9,925usd VorM Series).. and you have no need or hurries to sell it.. how much would you sell it for?

1) You can sell it for 20% below msrp in a few hours
2) You can sell it for 10% less in a week or so
3) You can sell it for msrp in a month
4) You can sell it for 10% over msrp in less than 3 months..
5) You can sell it for 50% more yup 15,000 usd in 6 to 9 months.

What would you do... would you sell it for what you say it is right on all the other threads and treat the customer like you want an AD to treat you.. or wait and get those 5k extra in your pocket. (ohh and you do not need to send the watch to Nigeria to get option 5

)

I don't think # 3, 4 & 5 applies.

Leo.. in an hypothetical situation.. just think of yourself as a One men Tourneau..

and 3, 4, and 5 will apply. This is purely about money.. no feelings attached..

In that case I would wait 1 year and get 100%

I was thinking of selling my Daytona recently, but wasn't sure on how to go about it. It was my grail piece, however by the time I got it I was wearing bigger watches and it never gets any wrist time.

If none of the options apply feel free to post the one you would do.

When selling do you want to make profit like an AD and when buying like a connoisseur getting the best prices?

Since the scenario is purely hypothetical it would be madness to do anything other than play the longer game and take a huge benefit on return.

I'd buy 100 of them and make nearly $500,000 in 9 months, lovely.
