Me too - was curious and the 124060 was keeping up right behind, $1000 less at 15k, just like as it was at MSRP. Let someone else make crazy decisions and help my value!

Guess it’s a good thing I haven’t worn my 126610 in months

Keeping it minty fresh

All seriousness just been wearing others. Maybe I’ll break it out and give it some wrist time.

As a lover and collector of watches, I'm not sure if this is truly great news. A duel edge sword at best IMHO. I don't sell my watches, so I would rather others be able to enjoy this hobby without mortgaging their house.

Bingo…Plus we’re headed into the time of the year where things move anyway so I’m sure lots of things will test new highs and blow right by them.

Until there is an impactful recession or other economic calamity, there is no stopping this train.

Agreed wholeheartedly. So much wealth is being created in the crypto market, and if it continues this uptrend I suspect plenty of guys will be treating themselves to a timepiece.

A guy I know just made 50 k this month on about a 6k investment flipping NFTs. Just silly money, at that rate who cares about paying a premium for a watch?

Certainly not.

Plenty of people love buying Rolex knowing they won’t lose much, if anything if they sell their Rolex.

Simply knowing this is one of the great pleasures of Rolex ownership vis-à-vis most other brands.
