DAVIDSW running out of Daytona to sell

[jacky_lai]

DAVIDSW only have two daytona for sell; both are 116520 in black dial.
They have around 15-20 pieces a month ago. I guess demands are through the roof right now.

[asiparks]

Or
demand is down so he’s not restocking as much
Flippers are asking more than he wants to pay
His supply has been restricted-owners holding instead of selling
Sees a downside on the horizon and doesn’t want to be holding

Who knows, other than David….

[geoffreyis]

Perhaps you should just ask David.

Its tough to keep up a website with that much volume. I bet he has quite a few waiting to go up, or sitting in the safe riding the wave to the top.

I saw that too. He went from having over 15 pieces to just 2 in about three weeks.

My hunch is things are not what they seem on the surface. Maybe he is refreshing his stock online listings at the moment - but that's just one probably incorrect guess. It's probably something we can't see from here. But in a few days, things may change dramatically.

May have to stop selling them so cheap.

And I think people need to understand that what is on the website may be all..or may be just a fraction ...of what is in the safe. Many dealers will hold back stock if they expect rising demand and rising prices. They don't all have TPG style cash flow problems.

As an aside...I am so far outside the group that would entertain a watch priced at 2 to 3 or more times retail that I can't even wrap my head around today's prices and the idea that people who pay them exist.

I wonder the same thing. Maybe he's holding expecting a price shift either up or down?

All daytonas are being discontinued. Get yours now for 300x premium before it is 500x!

Buy Buy Buy!

[Goin2drt]

Or demand is through the roof and he takes the ads down for a few days then reposts at higher prices.

[jb335]

I noticed the same thing a couple days ago. I don’t ever recall seeing his Daytona inventory anywhere near this low before.

I do think we should be careful trying to guess what this means. Probably not much anyway.

Go enjoy your life and leave Davidsw to do what he knows better : sell watches

[conradwu]

His GMT asking prices have shot up over the past week. Try finding a TT CHNR under 25k now...

[Manamana]

There are no TT Chnr Rootbeer too. there were 3 a couple days ago

[Mystro]

It’s not just David but many other trusted sellers had them marked up even higher (pre owned $43K+ 116500LN Panda) this week and they are gone now as well.

This all seems like déjà vu of 4 years ago and I bet many will kick themself not buying at todays price.

[1665fan]

Daytona to the moon……116520 are soon to surpass the ceramics

[shammad10]

A while back I messaged watchfinder (big grey dealer in the UK) about buying my explorer, as I was curious to see what they would pay.
They replied with a really lowball offer, about £3k less than they had listed them. When I asked why so low, they replied that they had 31 of that watch in stock- even though their website only showed 7.
So I guess this might be quite a common thing.

[febie111]

Based on some of the recent auction prices for some Rolex models,maybe some of them are going there.

[DRS Enabled]

Been looking for a GMT Pepsi on Oyster so I can have that option to buy/switch between Jubilee. They are kind of hard to find too.

[TswaneNguni]

I have more Daytona stock than DavidSW .I guess that makes me important ? ..

[brandrea]

I just spoke to David. He only has display models and they aren’t for sale

[TimepieceRPP]

i have noticed similar in some popular dealers in the UK too.

[GB-man]

Give him a call. He will pull a rabbit out of his hat I assure you.

[eugenetsang]

I wonder how this will affect his brick and mortar business? I can't imagine it being empty with nothing to sell. Rent and bills still needs to be paid on the monthly!

[Divingdeep87]

A grey told me they expect them to rise alot in the next months up to Basel and after, so they pulled them all, he and the other greys in the whatsapp. Sooo… Let’s see..

[majidessa]

I don't think he run out of Daytona watches because The last time I checked like 2 days ago he had quite a few including two tones, the same thing happened to Rolex Sub ND 41MM, he used to have 2 in stock, the other day both disappeared and today he have 2 listed at $600 more than previous listing.

[Wingslogo]

I wouldn’t bet against DavidSW

Pretty sure that’s an excuse to make their offer seem less like they were ripping you off lol…….doubt they are looking for 32 explorer 1s
