I was in Hawaii on vacation last week and at the Rolex boutique in Waikiki they had a Black/Blue GMTII for sale. Salesperson said they just received 2, sold one and the other for sale. Would have cost me list price, would have shipped it so no tax, and the store would have paid for shipping, so list price, not a bad deal. Then we went onto Maui, found a Rolex dealer there and missed one at the Barron and Leeds store by about 3 hours.

So call the store and have them ship it?

horseco · 10 August 2013, 06:36 AM

There will be no shortage, so no rush...

rolex75216 · 10 August 2013, 06:40 AM

When one door closes, another one opens. Patience will get you far. There will be others.

77T · 10 August 2013, 06:40 AM

Yep - that's called bypassed remorse

It can be cured by a few strolls through the TRF Classifieds - no tax!

no doubt, dime a dozen. another will come along in no time.

KBM · 10 August 2013, 06:46 AM

And prices should adjust, so a little discount on that piece is in the horizon...

I guess the economy is picking up if they are selling everywhere you go.

cop414 · 10 August 2013, 07:45 AM

Wasn't meant to be at the time, it will come along, as others have said no shortage.

SWISSAHOLICS · 10 August 2013, 07:56 AM

They are everywhere now....no worries....they are producing by the buckets

bayerische · 10 August 2013, 08:07 AM

I'm sure Rolex will put out another 10.000 or so of them during the next year... Plenty are going to be around.

rolio · 10 August 2013, 08:09 AM

As said earlier, "patience" is key.

BillA · 10 August 2013, 09:17 AM

Thanks guys, makes me feel better, there will be others

Bangel · 10 August 2013, 09:27 AM

Easy come, easy go.

I'm sure you'll have plenty of other opportunities to get one, maybe with an even better deal.

Chaching · 10 August 2013, 11:53 AM

wait for a used one....only a year or two wait!

Nidal · 10 August 2013, 12:00 PM

My friend. Remember that Rolex makes 800k-1 million Machine made watches annually.

As they said earlier, if you wait a year you will get your 10% discount. This is not patek Phillip that produces 15000 watches a year only.

Have you noticed that Rolex hasn't increased their prices this year?! Guess why? They have to move last year stock first and they haven't. They want your business more that you need their watches. For the record I'm a Rolex freak

Hairdude1 · 10 August 2013, 12:21 PM

Just wait for the hype to cool off, I am sure you can find a NIB for a better price soon

Ardalan · 10 August 2013, 12:23 PM

I like that model too. You will get it sooner or later.

Andad · 10 August 2013, 06:20 PM

There will be plenty available at good prices when Rolex releases the PepsiC.

sea-dweller · 11 August 2013, 01:16 AM

Prices will adjust soon, be patient.

DucS2R · 12 August 2013, 09:00 AM

I got to handle one today and like it a lot. Like many others I will wait until you can find them at discount.

mjclark32 · 12 August 2013, 09:03 AM

Be patient, you'll find another

Couldn't agree more....

bondtoys · 12 August 2013, 02:41 PM

These will be available with a discount soon, the question is more, if they will be cheaper afterall incase another price hike happens in the meantime.

I'd say, that you won't get the blue- black for less than 9k next year....
