Which cheaper Rolex model is more worthwhile to get?

[Oceanklassik]

Retail price is $9,750.

If i were to recommend:

If you like watches with a dive bezel, go for the Sub No Date 14060M. Brand new ard $7.4k+
If you like simple watch and couldn't care about a black bezel, then the 214270 Exp 1 is a good choice. Brand new also $7.4k+.

Bros,

The new Sub-No Date 114060 is at what price, any idea?

Let us try this again. Any sub-3000 Rolex that is worthwhile to get?

[Caliber]

Non date Submarina
Previous Exploror 2

Is explorer 1 the only sports series that is below 5k for preown piece?

If the OP refers to new Rolexes, then the choice is between SS Datejust, Sub c No Date, and Explorer I. I have seen all 3 in the flesh, and I would say the Sub c No Date is a beauty to behold! That would be my choice.

GMTmaster 2 coke/pepsi in my opinion!

How to deal from a seller from ROC and ensure that you are buying the real rolex and not an imitation.

TIA.

Meet the seller at RSC and send the watch for authentication, pay only after you have been told it's real. But usually buyer pay for the authentication... Cheers

Well, Rolex is a premium watch brand to begin with, so it's never cheap esp so in Asia. If you are looking to buy 1st hand/brand new models such as Air-King or Oyster Perpetual (no date) can be considered if you have some budget. If not, most 2nd watch shops can offer gd deals depending on the models you are after?

i am not sure if 'most' 2nd watch shops offer good deals, because seems to me good deals at preown shops is often hard to come by

Good deals at sg-roc are more often than the 2nd hand watch shops

I owned Black dial S/S Submariner and 116333. Frankly, its definitely worthwhile and I have no regret buying them bcos their price already "shot up" by now :-)

Both are nice looking watches.

Your original post is which cheaper model to get...........

Now you are happy with 5-8k DSSD.

Don't get you really??? Anyway happy hunting or should I say fishing!!

Sea Dweller at less than 6k (though I can't find one yet) is considered cheaper and worthwhile.
Same as 6694 that is around 1k (though I can't find one yet). Also cheaper and worthwhile to me.

Do you own any Rolex? You find it worthwhile? Which model is it?
