Thanks boss I'll check them out. I want that new black lacquer Omega I don't want to pay retail.
 
im against all flippers who leaves nothing for other folks but this one just seems dumb to me



Studio Underdog has an open order system as in they have a window and you can order as many as you want so this guy ordered 10 and plan to resell them but the thing is with the open order system, its made to order so if they get 1,000 or 10,000 orders in that window, thats how many watches they make

it is not taking stock away from someone who truly wants it, if they really wanted it then they should have order in that window and pay retail but to those who missed out, this "reseller" might actually be doing them a favor a there would be more available out there and the more there is out there the cheaper it will be on resale

this is SU just wanting to try and keep their watches more limited to hype it up and people thinking they are doing the lords work
:lol:
 
The 38 in titanium with the monochrome dial is pretty awesome imo. Curious to see pricing, particularly as all brands seem to be increasing (due to tariffs and other factors).
 
the GS GMTs look good, again just wish it was slightly thinner and no date
:lol:

$5400 is a good price too

the CW jumping hour looks cool, 39mm case is great but 14mm thick and $3k


 
This might sound tone deaf, but with how the economy’s going right now, do you guys think Rolex prices will drop? I’ve been eyeing the Wimbledon 41mm two-tone with the jubilee band, and I’m wondering if now’s the right time to pull the trigger or if I should wait a bit.

Doubt prices drop and if anything they’ll use US price increases with tariffs to gauge what more would be acceptable to the market

Popped into my AD for soemthing quick last week and one of the dudes told me bahamas won’t even be getting their watches out of US anymore to circumvent all of that.. because it was easier for rolex to ship through the US to the Bahamas

But they pretty much think they’ll get increased business from certain sectors since they might as well use that price difference to buy plane tickets and plan a vacation around it.. the bahamar store is going be significantly larger and supposed to get significantly more allocations
 
As long as gold remains high, two-tones wont go down much aftermarket.

Overall I think prices have stabilized, prices wont drop especially if its new from the AD.

if you're buying a gold rolex now, its really because you want one, not to make money on it.
