Got a call tonight from my AD, steel white face Daytona available at 7% off the new list price. Do you think this is a good deal, considering more & more are showing up at ADs displays?

Andad · 4 October 2010, 03:13 PM

They sell here on the Forum for between 9500 & 10000.

How does that compare?

JUSTROLEXES · 4 October 2010, 03:13 PM

Hello Jay,
If you're not paying sales tax that is a good deal

The new retail is $10400 and at 7% that will place you at $9672 and that is good as long as no sales tax...
If you were to pay sales tax you can check here on TRF and you can do better

i say its a good deal on a watch that wont sit at the dealer long. push 10% but if u feel 7 is firm buy it.

Yazo · 4 October 2010, 03:43 PM

Buy it!!

mach330 · 4 October 2010, 04:20 PM

Sounds like a good deal to new from an ad for under 10k.

dddrees · 4 October 2010, 04:51 PM

It sounds like a good deal to me. I'd get it.

Shade · 4 October 2010, 07:47 PM

Why not?

Singslinger · 4 October 2010, 07:49 PM

Sounds like a fair deal.

HL65 · 4 October 2010, 07:59 PM

If you want a BNIB get it--if not--look on TRF and save the money buying used!

Could not have said it better... Sounds like a great deal for BNIB but I would personally but a LNIB here on TRF ansd save yourself some $$$

Good Luck

nauticajoe · 4 October 2010, 09:14 PM

Price sounds good to me.

Kiddodoc · 4 October 2010, 10:01 PM

No tax on that price would be a great deal and I would not hesitate to buy it.

coreyharris · 4 October 2010, 10:08 PM

My AD gave me a call too, he's got white one and a black one both at 10.4k.

KR200 · 4 October 2010, 10:56 PM

I think this thread pretty much rubber stamps where the market for the Steel Daytona has ended up..

Which is good as I want one.

conrail · 4 October 2010, 11:00 PM

Without sales tax that would be a great deal IMO; otherwise you can find some beauties listed here in the sales sections

psv · 5 October 2010, 01:15 AM

I just got offered one at the old price, so basically 5% off (but then one have to pay taxes/pick up locally) for a black dial one (rarer).

I think the race is over one this watch to some extent. Sure, it is still a iconic watch but $10K is still a boatload of cash (for most people).

At the end, you should buy the watch because it sings to you and will make your life journey a happier/better one, not because it is a coveted watch, that other people think you should buy it or because the deal is fair.

Good luck with your decision.

TSW · 5 October 2010, 02:50 AM

Get it!!

bewithabob · 5 October 2010, 02:45 PM

hurry!

dman · 5 October 2010, 02:47 PM

If it sings to you jump on it, if just so so then you can look on the boards. I love that watch and that dial, so for me when they called I answered.

hanto · 5 October 2010, 09:23 PM

Should get it if you get 7% off....when i bought mine couple weeks ago, the AD don't even give 1% discount hahaha

RolexABC · 5 October 2010, 09:55 PM

If I could spare the cash, i'd be all over it like a rash! :)

TDH · 6 October 2010, 05:14 AM

Today the AD sweetened the deal by 9% off and no tax, don't know what's goin' on

?? Looks the state of the economy is dictating the price of the so called collectibles!

Don't want to push him too much on this one 'cause I don't know if he'll go any lower

moviefreak · 6 October 2010, 05:19 AM

put the cash on the table an you will get the 10%...

EchoBlueUK · 6 October 2010, 05:20 AM

100% buy!

Richard. · 6 October 2010, 06:29 AM
