That's a great price. For the same money you can only buy a sub in greece. I wish greece the prices that you have in your country

Sorry! Couldn't help it. I know you meant Bluebull, but Denmark does suck what prices of Rolex watches concerns (25 % VAT!!)

I have seen the YM/ss/plat at a used dealer and a AD,a few times.Funny,did not have a serious look at it.Then a few weeks ago visited an expo and saw two on the wrist.Its just amazing how nicely it presents.It immediately caught the eye.Its an amazing design and quite unique in design and presentation.

Waiting for the next shipment.If the pricing remains the same,I'll seriously consider,if it comes after the "yearly increase",I will have to reconsider.Having a look at the local currency and the usual Rolex increase I have a gut feeling ... about 10%.If thats the case,no deal.

I may sell the SD after the increase, at the end of the year,because there is another grail,sought after, black dial heading my way in Nov.If the price is right ..........
