Pretty much any stainless steel sports. They have always been sought after, not just in the last 5 year bubble.

A couple of Skydwellers for sale in the window of Mappin & Webb in Kingston.plus another.

Yikes, a more awful experience I can’t imagine. Hope you and your family are ok. I imagine you are properly shaken up.

Don’t burst their bubble.

The clue is in the title of SALES person or SALES assistant.

They are there to make themselves and their company money. You are just a route to maximise that.

The whole relationship part of the business model has changed. It used to be to get some repeat business, maybe a couple of items in a decade. Now it is about much higher value spend on higher...

It only has 200m WR IIRC. No reason it needs to have a thick case, unless the in house movement requires it.

The trend to smaller diameter watches is also complimetned with the trend of thinner...

I passed up a 14060M and DSSD in the late noughties in LHR, back in the day they gave you equivalent VAT reduction no matter where you were flying.

Ah, the good old days, but the 14060M was not...

Given SC is now in Rolex offloading mode to try and catch the top of the market, you never know, you may actually be soon able to buy a relatively unpopular model from the ADs window soon.

Another...

When interest rates rise significantly and the stock and housing market break - and they will - Rolex and every other overpriced asset will come tumbling down.

The whole point of a bubble is that...

Can someone please amend the title of this to the Unified Rolex in the Window Exhibition Only but Not for Sale Thread.

It is getting a bit tedious with its current title.

Not nearly in the same league as batgirl, Pepsi, Daytona, SS sub, but you get the idea.

The irony of that the exhibition display models are not even that desirable.

The shortage of the real desirable stuff is so acute that they can’t even find any to exhibit, LOL.

I was offered one just before Covid after only a 6 month wait. I turned it down. Maybe I shouldn’t have.

There is nothing of note you can buy in any AD window, anywhere.

Rinse and repeat for the next 1000 posts.

This is such a dull and pointless thread.

That deal will also end his journey as a flipper - good riddance.

I think you would struggle with 2 days, tee hee.

I don’t think so. It is not a popular watch. I was offered this for about £11k on a walk in to Robinsons in Liverpool a couple of years ago. I declined.

That will be it then.

Here is the additional YM. The rear watch looked larger, maybe 42mm?

Beat me to it. Just looking at them in the window now. There are 3 YMs in total.

I mean joe public, and even most WISes won’t have a clue what model is SS and WG.

Whether you like the reason or not, there is a good reason why white gold watches generally sell so poorly. They...

WG. So basically you pay an extra £15k, and it looks exactly like a SS model on a rubber band.

This thread is about difficult to obtain Rolex models in the window of ADs.

It is not about second hand Rolex in non-ADs at overinflated prices.

No need to post those. They are everywhere.

They are the only Rolex AD in Kingston since EJ lost Rolex a few years back.

The root beer is not hard to get. I was offered one about a year ago from FH Kingston (now M&W) after only 6 months on...
