Day Date 40 price.

[seezur]

I’m currently waiting on two subs, a bluesy and black sub date from my new AD. It’s starting to feel like it’s not going to happen so this might be moot, but assuming it does before the new year, I plan on buying a DD 40 YG with white Romans in 2025.

I don’t want to buy grey but I’ve always heard that PM watches like the DD can be had sometimes significantly at discount at grey dealers and even in the past at ADs. What prices would you expect for this configuration? Do you think a discount at an AD is possible? I’m basically set on buying from an AD but I am curious since it’s a lot of money (for me at least). Don’t care about it holding value as I never sell my watches but obviously paying less is better.

It seems like the market in general has cooled off tremendously even for steel tool watches and I know PM are almost always harder to move. Thoughts?
