      Why are you guys hating on him? That‘s his business and he very transparently says what he will pay for those watches. And he says „unless you really want this watch, it‘s a pass.“ You should not blame him, but all the flippers.
      I have bought Rolex watches from my AD and also from the grey market, it‘s my choice, isn‘t it? And if I get bored sometime I try to not loose money when selling them, is there something wrong with it?

    You know what i like about you guys. You just tell us straight what your paying for the watch. No b.s no games. full transparency. You say we add our margin. I really appreciate that. it gives me a good idea of where the market is. i dont think any other channel gives you the real price for the dealer and the resale.

    Glad I was able to get the Pepsi on Jubilee from the AD in late '22. Asked for it end of Jan '22 to celebrate a significant work promotion and 20 years with my wife. When my wife and I went to that city to celebrate our anniversary, I stopped into the AD in October to say hi and they surprised me with the watch and a delicious anniversary cake. Haven't bought a watch since.

    - 116518 Daytona Oysterflex Pikachu, 2023, new and unworn. Do you think it will decrease its value due to the new reference? Better to sell it soon or to keep and wait?
    Thank you!

    • @gh05t_mv

      You guys don't seem to understand that he's a luxury watch dealer. He's not a watch collector. He's speaking to his audience in terms of investment and flipping. His caveat of "unless you really want it" is just that. He's saying if you want to buy it to keep and wear, definitely buy it. If you want to buy it to flip or as an investment asset, DO NOT BUY.
      I personally buy to wear, but it's still good insight from him on where the watch market is.

      Well if he's saying he'll sell you those watches under SRP....... He has to be buying them at lower then what he sells them for, and it would appear that there's more then enough people willing to sell them to him at those prices so...............
      If you buy a watch because you want it then you can pay full retail if you can find someone to sell it to you. Or you can buy it on the gray for less then retail and actually buy it.

  • @angelsv8416
    @angelsv8416 3 місяці тому +2

    I don't know why these people try to discourage anyone from buying certain Rolex watches, especially if they're Rolex lovers the reason why I think they are doing this is because for most gray dealers, is better if there is low interest in these watches from customers so you can buy them for and resell them at some point, you have to remember not everyone wants to buy and sell watches to make a profit without doing any of the hard work, these people are not watchmakers, they are not authorized dealers however they are part of the problem why a lot of these true watch enthusiasts aren't able to get these watches. I can't wait for the day everything settles back, and these guys are no longer taking advantage of people.

    • @gaffs82
      @gaffs82 3 місяці тому +1

      You are right. The gray dealers want to keep the hype going. But the market is cooling. Now Covid is over, people are spending on other things like holiday. In the UK mortgage rates are higher than two years ago for those on variable rate mortgages. In the US the stock market is rising so people want to buy more stocks and ETFs. Everything is cyclical. It won’t be long before you can walk into a Rolex dealer and be offered one of a wide range of steel watches again, even if it’s not the Daytonas or some of the GMTs.
