But when u wanna buy a Rolex King, u may wear singlet n bermuda with a pair of slippers.

Yeah...it would be a gd test. Later you see xiao didi (ME) go in with 30k cash in pocket...go to the counter and ask for the YG Datejust...hahaha

But as far as I know, for solid gold Rolexes...their value depreciate like crazy,if you can buy it for 10k plus in the market...the amt you lose is...woooo hooooo

Anyway,I dun want to get a YG DD or DJ brand new coz I think the value is not there...so dun expect me to be at hour glass doing that...haha

Sports Models are still the best. They can hold value very well, esp the Submariner

Yeah true

most rolex models hold their value. it is how long u can keep it for. demand and supply also plays a role. for sports models, after 3 years, the resale value should be at least the current market value(most of the time).

Hi guys, I'm looking to buy a Sub or SD so chance upon this site while doing my research.

Recently went to HG to ask for price of 16600 and 16610 but was quoted higher price for the SD and nett price which seems quite diff from the experience here that Sub more in demand. Please advise.

16610: $7900
16600: $8100

M series has the 'rolex chapter ring' aka the words rolex engraved on the inner case circumference, ie the area between the dial and sapphire crystal. the rolex serial number is engraved @ the 6o'clock position

the last batch of Z series has the rolex chapter ring. however, the earlier batches do not have.

this is why M series is preferred. new design, anti-counterfeit measures.

But most AD I've asked told me no discount at all for this 2 model.

Think must be because I'm first time buyer so discount only for regular

for sub date, currently discount is like none as demand is very high. however for sea dweller, there should be.

would you like to reveal which AD u went to? maybe they tell u no discount as they think you are asking price only.

I agree with you, probably my sincerity did not moved him enough for a discount although the staff at HG Lucky Plaza was very helpful and courteous.

Fyi, i have check already. There isn't any 'rolex chapter ring' aka the words rolex engraved on the inner case circumference on my M series Sea-Dweller n Subbie. confirm only Explorer II, DJ has it.
