    A lot. I know of two people who have turned down watches. A sub and explorer 2 as the investment value is no longer there like it was. Neither were what you would call enthusiasts. I imagine these people make up most of the lists.

    Alanski's correct though Kerry
    With all the AD's you're in touch with surely they can get you one and especially as the uptake is low.
    Shouldn't be a problem.

    £9,815 from WF for a cash sale on a 2022+ 126610 without stickers so I’m not sure who is going to give a brand new one to your mate at RRP or a smidge over.

    Well, in an ideal world, it would be the person who gets offered one by an A.D. tries to sell it to watch Finder and gets offered under retail when I’m prepared to give them retail and a monkey on top. Don’t worry boys I’ve picked up the sly comments suggesting that in my position I should be able to just pull one off the shelf but we all know that doesn’t happen however the gentleman in question has registered with a number of ADs and is a very well renowned and highly charitable businessman that’s done an immense amount for his local community and I’m simply trying to help the fellow out.

    No sly comments from me. Couldn’t care less what he’s done in his life or for his community.

    You were asking for a brand new watch for RRP or a smudge above and when quizzed you’ve changed it to £500 over RRP which is still £315 less than WF are currently offering.

    You’re trying to help him out under the going rate and I don’t know why anyone would shortchange themselves just because he’s your mate.

    If they were that easy to get at retail how come lots of folk wh0 have decent spend still waiting for one ?


    Surely you know enough people to know that there's still a premium on them rather than try get one off here ?

    Maybe tell.him to go buy am explorer 1 or 2 instead he may have a chance of one of them as the favour u doing them of paying them retail

    Mallory in bath told my FIL 10yrs for an LV sub when I asked him to pop in and got for the list for me, as he just bought 2 OPs. Clearly a joke.

    The unified Rolex in the window thread

    Stock appears to be arriving in the Greater London area, aware of a few acquaintances “”getting the call”” over the last few weeks. Not sure on your timescale but if it’s a few months you just might get what you want - that aside Used RV will start dropping off further I feel.
