What is with the Daytona’s approaching this price? I am seeing them now for 26-27K on the seller forums. Thoughts on this??

Way too many people with more money than sense in this "look at me" world we live in now, so expect this trend to continue.

Pretty much sums it up.

+1. Makes no sense. I've never purchased any watch for over MSRP...nor will I. I hate this market of everything being difficult to get. I'm fortunate that I've developed several AD relationships over many years and they treat me well. Do I have to wait a little, yes...but they always get me what I ask in a reasonable period of time.

For those with no AD relationship, I do feel really bad for them...and I could see an argument for getting the watch of your dreams immediately if you went grey and had to pay a few thousand dollars over MSRP just to get it now. However, the prices for the SS Daytona are just ludicrous!!! Logic and common sense have left the building a long time ago on those models.

Narcissism is alive and well in the world of Rolex...oh...damn... gotta go boys. Just got a call from my AD while typing this reply that my new Batman and white Daytona arrived today...I'll post pics later 'cause I know none of you have a clue what they look like.

Classic watch but definitely way overpriced in my opinion.

Also, private debt seems to be on the raise in most western countries and has been for that past couple of years.

$US26,000 in Hong Kong this week before the negotiation starts.

I saw a kid on the MTR wearing one. Showing it off to a friend. Kid admits that he picked it up at Lo Wu (commercial centre) in Shenzhen and that nobody can tell the difference. Kind of sad.

JPS · 2 July 2019, 06:01 PM

Well the white one on WF has now sold & that was up for £22,500

A grey dealer this week offered me £15k for my 2 year old one.

I politely declined.

Watch was only for sale due to house purchase which has now fallen through.

Fleetlord · 2 July 2019, 05:57 PM

On the march to $50k...

Baring economic issues, there is no stopping this reference increasing to 4x retail.

Sadly I can see this happening. Really sucks for those who continue to want one to just wear and enjoy it.

Only PM prices and a bit of common sense.....

Crazy..

MinMay · 2 July 2019, 06:08 PM

Good. When BLRO hit 25k, Daytona should be 40k. And yes Daytona has that much demand and power.

Huge demand for panda combo.

Jonesy2099 · 2 July 2019, 07:21 PM

Anyone that pays more for a SS Daytona than a white gold one is mad.

I bet if you are able to get it at MSRP you’ll sell it for 30k. You call other people mad but yet you would do the same hahaha. Nice.

brettpaul · 2 July 2019, 07:40 PM

Prices on the Daytona are heading the same way as the Patek 5711/1A for sure...300% or more of retail!

I just bought a BNIB fully stickered 116520 white dial from Europe for Euros 17,000. That's gone straight into the bank vault while I watch the mayhem from my sofa! *-)

Zippy+ · 2 July 2019, 07:42 PM

£28000 on a well known auction site ..
