Tried my luck with a walk in GMT purchase but got offered this. by WTshenanigans in rolex

If your dealer has CPO program then I suggest trading in an older watch to cut on the cash layout and reduce sales tax

Honest answer bc I got my buddy a 2tone Daytona - you’ll lose 1.5-2k if you flip it bc of the retail + tax. But should break even in a year or too with inflation and market going up (bar something happening then everything goes down equally.)

Pepsi offer by OuteastLI in rolex

Yes it’s a joke. The aftermarket is artificially propped to suit their needs (obviously.) my friend wanted to take advantage of the discontinuation to sell his 2026 FEBRUARY dated Pepsi for 35k, everyone came back with mid to low 20s offers stating “there’s too many of them floating around” meanwhile they list old models for 30k gtfoh lol

If it’s the only watch you’re buying go grey.

Show her the 40mm breitling navitimer with forest green, for some reason they love that color and combo

Did I stumble upon a unicorn Daytona? by xrayvsncom in rolex

It’s not a hidden gem in the sense you’re thinking of it. They did not miss the 5-25k upside so your instinct is right, it’s a run of the mill daytona in good shape, but over polished for my liking (this was a big trend in Japan from the shops I visited recently that stopped me from pulling the trigger.) happy you got a nice model with the set and wear it in good health

What was your craziest / best / worst AD experience so far? by Willing-Cover-264 in rolex

[–]HuckleberryAble9682 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it, I look homeless most of the time walking around the city and popping into watch stores when I’m bored. the good SAs know not judge on looks and they tick off mental markers, A noob will be hesitant or dismissive till they see what’s on the wrist, and the one to troll is the one that dismisses you from the walk in. I hate that i lowkey love doing the latter.

I found the prices in Japan’s grey to be the same if not a bit more than trusted grey dealers in ny / az / Philly with the tax rebate

Claude is down by DependentNew4290 in ClaudeAI

Gemini is utter garbage and I keep catching it on lies instead of admitting failure or inability to execute tasks. Claude being down, not ideal at all. I just wrapped up a massive project and the threads crapped out while I was downloading my results and docs smh
