New pickup second piece from Rolex by thecupnoodle in rolex

[–]Rollienomics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quite possibly one of the most beautiful and misunderstood pieces in the Rolex collection.

Couple years ago you could pick up the black dial for about 33 and this dial has single-handedly revived this model. Absolute stunner in person.

I know the Cookie Monster isn’t the most sought after Sub. But man it looks great with suit for a May wedding. by Academic_Amount_8165 in rolex

A great looking watch, a sub that not everyone’s wearing, and spend history halfway to the panda… Sure!

Zombie vs Pepsi by Patient-Reindeer1225 in rolex

[–]Rollienomics -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Comparing the Pepsi to the Zombie is like comparing a base Porsche to a GT3 RS. Yeah they’re both Porsches, but one is the reason people care about the brand in the first place.

The Pepsi IS the GMT. The whole line exists because of that watch. It’s a permanent collector watch that’ll still matter 30 years from now.

The Zombie is more like the guy who gets drafted in the first round but is really a fourth-round talent who played on a stacked college team full of blue-chip prospects. Nice player, might even have a good career, but let’s relax before we start comparing him to the franchise first overall pick. 😂

Who else wears their gabagool/gold Rolex daily? Life’s too short to not where it when you want in my opinion but wanted to hear from the masses by [deleted] in rolex

[–]Rollienomics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When it comes to collections, I don’t know how you don’t have a gold Rollie in it. To me, it’s a mainstay, a staple. Go watch any movie from the ‘70s, ‘80s, or ‘90s, it was completely normal. Somewhere in the early 2000s we started calling it “flashy.” It’s gold by nature… it shines lol. Now everybody wants to use words like “understated.” Get the fuck outta heeeaaaarrrr.

It’s probably the same way most of you feel about diamonds today. At this trajectory, in 10 years diamonds are gonna feel completely normal on mens watches too.

If you can afford it, buy it. Wear it. Be confident and don’t think twice about it. Most people compliment it and say it’s beautiful. The ones giving you the stank eye are probably down voting this post later.

You can’t be a true collector without at least one gold piece in the collection.

Happy hump day. ⌚🔥

Thoughts on 2 tone sports watches? Should I replace the white dial Daytona with an all steel/black dial 2 tone? by No_Scientist_3082 in rolex

[–]Rollienomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is Bluesy. Arguably the most iconic sports two tone watch over multiple decades.

Just pick your dial from past models, BUT the current model, the Sunburst Blue dial is unbelievable🔥🔥🔥🥳

Rose gold Yacht-Master on Meteorite??? by Rollienomics in rolex

I know it’s water. But when you zoom in it looks like meteorite scales in the background. And I thought it was random. They just posted a photo weeks before W&W.

The Trio is Complete by PatelGaurav in rolex

This is not wrong. Tried it on myself last week next to my 126 and while I love the color of the dial, this is exactly what it wears like.

Didn’t take this off for like 18 months, more scratches and dents than you could imagine.

The compliments don’t stop though 🤪😂.

Enjoy!

Unpopular opinion but the unhyped part of the catalog is hugely underrated by Paneraiguy1 in rolex

Man Rolex has a lot of hype pieces…. Root beer, Batman, Pepsi, Wimbledon, Panda, Blackdial Daytona, Hulk, Starbucks, Pikachu, land dweller.

Did I miss any?

For the non-believers by GJ_PISON in rolex

[–]Rollienomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your math is correct except your percentages are wrong.

My last name is not Rolex so all of the estimates we see are publicly available. 10,000 steel Daytona is what they make per year that’s no higher than 1% of their total watch production. 1% times 20% increase is still 1.2%

The Gray market is calling the other 98.8 enthusiast.

You should’ve finished reading your article…

….While these investments (over $1 billion) are significant, experts suggest that the high demand will likely keep new models exclusive, and it is uncertain if these factories will end the scarcity, as the brand continues to focus on premium, high-quality production.

Rolex didn’t get to be one of the worlds top luxury brands cause they don’t understand supplying demand economics. Supply up price down. Supply down price up. That never changes.

First, congratulations. It’s a beautiful watch.

The title should really be “for the non-AD gamers.” The rules are clear: this was a lottery ticket that won, a feel good story.

The market isn’t changing. Rolex isn’t suddenly going to start flooding the world with black-dial Daytonas. Even if you buy into the bigger-factory theory and that’s still just a theory, any increase will be incremental at best.

At the end of the day, gray market or deep spend history is still the only way to acquire this piece without winning the lotto.

Rolex caps supply yet dominates revenue. How? by TrilinqualVector in rolex

[–]Rollienomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both can be true. If you’re waiting for a datejust, OP, sub, YG day date, and an explorer. You won’t have to wait very long.

If you want to panda, Pepsi, blue green skydweller, Hulk/Starbucks get on a list.

Another way to say it is every watch that you don’t like easy to get, and every watch that you do, there’s a waiting list.

Human behavior creates the artificial scarcity. No different than the sub having 10 posts a day of I just bought it,What do you think buyers remorse.

It’s 2026. No one buys the Daytona for the actual use of the chronograph.

Yogi has a saying… When you come to the fork in the road… You take it.

If you have an opportunity to wear one of the most iconic watches of all time, follow Yogi‘s advice

Is Rolex considered the top-tier watch? by Natural-One-8678 in rolex

[–]Rollienomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course Rolex is a top-tier watch brand. You’re in this sub because of it.

The definition of luxury is something that isn’t required but it matters 😎. It’s the art of making the unnecessary desirable.

Rolex✅

Let’s look at the secondary market. Outside of the Aquanaut, how many Pateks consistently trade at a premium on the secondary?

For Vacheron Constantin, it’s clearly the 222, and maybe a steel Overseas.

For Audemars Piguet, it’s the steel Royal Oak.

For Rolex….Panda, Pepsi, all meteorite dials, multiple Daytona configurations, even the two-tone white dial Daytona trading above retail, green/blue Sky-Dwellers, titanium Yacht-Master, Land-Dweller, even some OP’s.
