Impossible? Daytona in the window at a UK AD

Not anymore! As some of you may know, I do some part time work at an AD in the Midlands, and after having several people turn it down, my managers have taken the decision to place a SS Daytona with black dial in the window.

I thought I would take the time to give TRF members a heads up - it's only fair that Rolex enthusiasts should be given the first chance If you're interested, let me know

Best wishes

Chris

Afraid it's not "impossible" I saw one (whiteface BNIB) at RRP (£6340) recently within the UK, in an AD window.

I think Blowers has 9 SS Daytona in stock. They will not buy a BNIB 116520 even at list price! Think we might be heading to the same situation as in the USA.
