So many grey nowsaday so wonder how AD still can survive and survive so well?

you'll be surprised at the ADs' margins, and also the crazy purchases from ballers

nice like new mint ones are good to buy

I agree with LCChye, think buying from AD is more straight forward for those (including myself). But after reading up on the forums, I'm slowly inching away from purchasing at ADs. I'm still looking around though.
Instalment plan I think I read somewhere else in this forum, we'll be at the mercy of the banks when it comes to annual fee. Credit card points I think there isn't any difference between paying one shot and via instalment? Coz afterall the final amount is the same.

I believe somehow or another, people would still get from AD. Some people just enjoy the feeling of getting their beloved piece from AD, 'boutique experience/service', a peace of mind as well as financial package e.g. instalment plans.

Price

& d prices, i think for grey are negotiable.AD unstable..hahaha

For me, I used to think brand new is the way to go. But right now, I would prefer pre-owned as the first owner would absorb the depreciation instead

Ad or grey

Bro david,as i know AD also need to pre-order,limited supply.
As Grey Dealer,We have many Bro's Sgroc member is.
Nowaday,many ppl using cc installment 0% plan to get watch,very common.

My mom always say, buy new one if not may get cheated. The only things she buy used are cars and houses. But this hobby is going to get very expensive.

Thanks for your quick reply Victor.

Hmm... can i just clarify further.. as in submariner probably to get from ADs or grey seller (authentication recommended i assume?)
Wife's datejust we can try to get in airport?

I was just thinking if we're getting 2 watches at the ADs, maybe we can get a better price (and less hassle travelling around).
Or the best deal would be to buy both from grey sellers?
