What’s the going rate for these now? Debating ditching the Panerai for one…

Please PM me details

1622

i only know CDN MSRP stuffs. They’re $9400 for the new ceramic bezel version.

you can get second hands ones like i did with the full kit from $5k - $7k depending on how new you want. biggest risk on age is that the dial loom fades and it doesnt look as rad at night.

what pan do you have?

1623

Base 000

1624

I think there’s pics in here somewhere… Have original box, receipt, papers, bands, etc…

For some reason I have lusted for a Pepsi bezel gmt or a sub… Sigh.

Never happy.

1625

im not one for the whole smartwatch revolution but i stumbled upon this today via tumblr and now im bummed i cant buy one

1626

Where might one go to purchase a Rolex in WNY?

1627

^^^new? you can go to just about any major jewelry store. Reeds, etc. I would probably look online though.

1628

You may want to touch base with EvoMR (Sam) he knows his watch stuff and may be able to help ya.

1629

Reeds is the only AD in WNY. Realistically, you can fetch a new one for a bit less elsewhere, but there is wiggle room @ Reeds.

Misterioman also has a hookup. What are you looking at?

1630

hautelook.com was having a sale on Rolex today. Probably some good deals to be had.

1631

i hate all these sites you can’t even view without setting up an account…

what model of Rolex are you looking for?

topnotchwatch is local… there is also that local dude i keep forgetting his name that has good used stuff

Sam asked reasonable prices when he’s off loading gear too.

1632

I like the Explorer II on Hautelook and yeah I hate having to make an account just to window shop.

1633

Mike, I’ve got a guy in San Diego that just sold me a Rolex. The guy is really well known in the previously enjoyed Rolex world, and he has quite a few new pieces as well.

I’ll PM you his info. Super reliable, has awesome pricing and is very easy to deal with.

There isn’t anyone local that I would recommend for previously enjoyed or non AD purchases.

1634

Good deal on a very attractive watch here, http://slickdeals.net/f/7345696-raymond-weil-men-s-maestro-automatic-moonphase-watch-955-free-shipping

Hautelook is annoying to get onto but they do have some good deals on high end items.

1635

pics like this still make me lust for a rolex…

I’ve got an extra vintage Sub when you’re ready @XwalkerX.

1637

one day Sam.

seriously one day…

unless you institute a Sub lay-a-way program for me LOL

1638

touchofmodern often has rolex, used also sometimes - not sure how competitive those prices are though.

I just picked up a Vostok Amphibia again, such a good looking automatic reliable daily beater diver watch with tons and tons of dial options IMO. waiting for the thing to ship from russia is not for the patient.

1639

i havent been able to take my GMT Coke off since i bought it…

pretty sure my next watch will be a Rolex too (Daytona). just knowing that if you buy well you can always count on getting your money back out of it is such a refreshing feeling. i have 2 standing offers on my GMT for healthy 15% - 20% profits.

1640

Which Daytona Bing? Since you are Canadian, I can only assume it will be the two tone version with slate dial. :wink:
