Nice watch but it’s bad investment. That watch doesn’t hold its value and that’s in new condition so in preowned condition it’s even worse. I have been offered that piece twice by two different Rolex ADs and passed on it. However, if you don’t care about value retention with a purchase price of $42,000 + tax and you just buy it because you like it then like I said, it’s a beautiful watch.

Very lucky. It’s a shame Rolex ads are like this. The victims here are people that have saved up hard earned money and just want to buy one watch to celebrate a milestone, or as something to pass down, or just to wear every day but we are seen as peasant. It’s disgusting service to be honest

@dllozano25 They discontinued the "Smurf" model back in 2020 so you can not buy them directly through Rolex unless certified pre-owned which wouldn't represent retail/msrp

They sell for retail on the grey market. Rolex can't give that watch away. Whoever actually have 50k ready to spend, Rolex is ready to sell NOW. Production has ramped back up while demand is going back down and the economy just looks like it's going to be a few years before a big boom in watches
Nico, absolutely nice watch. However it isn’t a smurf. It’s a cookie monster. The Rolex Smurf Submariner 116619LB has a blue dial as well as a blue bezel.
my god rolex actually had a watch in stock and you didnt have to join a 10 year waiting list and they didn't kick you out of their shop and call you a peasant 😂
Even Hublot has said they sell more watches because of Nico. A few dealers are getting stock in that the public can get. Down in North Carolina I have a AD that is getting a Yachtmaster for me
AD selling to a well known flipper, who will sell immediately for profit, robbing a real enthusiast from ever having the chance to own at retail - just the way it should be.
@@The_Mosaic Not sure why. Could be the bad economy, or people has realized that the scarcity is artificial. It's the fake "waitlist" and they capitalize on the high demand.
He did say sometimes you lose money and sometimes you just have to wait it out. So his probably waiting it out till the value goes up again to break even.
He paid 3-4k more for brand new watch and you are not only paying for that watch but for your next purchase too, myb some Datejust, Explorer some 6-10k watches so you can grab some Daytona, DayDate, Sky Dweller for retail later. It’s important to build that connection with your AD not only about that 1 exact watch that you are buying.
@@seriousone44 uh, think about it. He’s nowhere near that dealer. And he IS a dealer. He’s never going back there! I understand the usual build your rep, but that’s not happening here!!!
Nico, tysm for changing my life in ways I can't say on here. I promise you buy my first real Rolex from you & all watches for what you've done for me. Continue being yourself f these haters.
Pretty much asked the AD the same way for DJ 41 Mint Jubilee Fluted this past weekend “if this is something you could move today I’d be interested in doing that.” And I walked out the same day with the timepiece. No prior history. Thanks Nico.
Wtf when was Nico in oslo??? I know so many people who's been on the wait list for years who'd love to buy a Rolex from Bjerke (this dealer) and are dismissed every time.. shame on you bjerke
