Buy it and if you do not bond with it i am sure someone will buy it with a few quid extra for you.
Me included.
At RRP. Realising how much in demand it is. What to do? I do love it but not sure I would keep it long term given it is a bit out there for me. Shall I take it and see how it works or just pass and let the next person go for It? Current collection includes a sub c and explorer 1...

I'll exchange my LN for it if you want. ;)
I think you can now have these pretty much for rrp, or am I misstaken?
If you don't like it you can flog it without loosing any money (in fact you are likely to make some) as such it's a no brainer
In fact I am sure you will have a number of PMs from people offering to buy it from you before the evening is out.

Not impossible but tough.
It’s a no-brainer! Buy it, you may actually decide to keep it. If not I’m sure someone here will take it off you, as would many dealers. No risk whatsoever.
Buy it for sure.

buy it!
Just to offer an alternative viewpoint, maybe slightly radical but pass on it so that someone who actually wants one can buy it, maybe even someone from our TZ UK community.
Sit back and await a PM from someone offering to buy it from you for RRP +£500.
Ask the dealer to leave the stickers on, and remember to claim the Warranty card.
Job's a good-un!
As other said, buy it and sell it on for a profit if you don’t gel with it.
You can offer it up on here too, I did something similar with a subC date a few months back
Let the next person have it. People are waiting in lists for these watches. My Daytona C White came in before Christmas and I passed on it as it wasn’t the right time to buy. Hopefully the next one will be mine as I have the cash now but it felt nice to let someone else in the queue have it.
Like others have said, a no brainer and virtually risk free - it might even grow on you and become a keeper.

Thanks all. Food for thought...
Per the post above. I was never on the list for it ... walked into AD and it was just sat there - I am away at the moment not in UK. Guy is holding it for me until tomorrow whilst I decide. Apparently a one off as demand here is also insane.

Does that mean overseas AD, in which case VAT if outside the EU.
Surprised he would even hold it for you if you just walked into store without wait list.
No and I couldn't give a monkeys chuff one way or the other. Just highlighting that if the guy buys this watch in the US or the Far East for example he will need to declare it and factor in another 20% to the cost.
Anyway, this a forum and the OP asked for comments so get back in your box.
I genuinely think people are trying to be helpful, if he brings the Watch in from outside the EU and honestly declares it there will be a 20% bill to pay - sorry, but that is the law here in the U.K.
If the buyer wants to wear the watch and enter into a bit of tax evasion or avoidance that is strictly his business.
I think it right for people to highlight this. We have seen on other threads, buying from Creation Watches in Singapore for example that some people do not realise that their bargain purchase may contain hidden extras.
Buy it, wear it.
If you don’t bond with it, sell it.

You might not but thousands do. The rules on personal valuables on holiday make it a job that customs couldn't possibly hope to do effectively.
13 years ex-EU commuting every week or three and not once have I seen anyone asked about personal effects.
It's only on tz that people spack-out about it!
It's such a tough decision. Very wise coming on here to ask others' opinions.
Start another Rolex thread.
Well thanks for the comments. Surely I could buy such a rare piece and if not gel sell it for RRP or even more as per your comments above. But not here to make a profit. Happy with my current pieces so think I will pass. I am sure it will go in no time to someone who will cherish it.
