Steel Sky Dweller with a Blue dial on Jubilee - Incredibly difficult to obtain at AD. It doesn't matter much between 32x (discontinued) and 33x references if you are looking to buy grey. This particular model should slowly creep back up in price over the coming months and is certainly one to hold for 5yrs+ - It's a VIP watch that Rolex AD's only sell to their heavy spenders.

Rootbeer in Canada goes for 24500-26000 depending on year and condition. It’s a definite yes in Canada. I’m not sure why anyone would sell you the most in demand rolex to loose 1000-3000 pounds when you can sell them yourself in a dozens of watch groups. Batman/girl, mint green dj, sprite, root beer, steel Daytona, Skydweller in blue or green are all easy to sell.

Great video as always. My prediction is that this time next year, the only watches you'll be paying over retail for will be stainless steel GMTs, the most desirable Daytonas, Tiffany OP, Celebration OP and some Subs. Everything else you'll be paying less than retail, with you selling them at retail or slightly below.

I own a Daytona that I bought in Iran back in 1998. It's still in perfect running condition, and I remember the excitement of purchasing it like it was yesterday. Now, I'm curious to see how much it's worth today, so I'm planning to do a little research. It's amazing to think how the value of these timeless pieces can appreciate over the years.

Hi! So I have just discovered your channel - great content! I have been thinking about buying Rolex Dayjust 41, fluted, jubilee bracelet with blue dial motif. The seller offered me $17,000 for this timepiece. But I watched your video on discontinued watches and I started reconsidering if its really worth it? I like the watch itself and would like to buy for just wearing it, but I also dont want to overpay. Any piece of advice?
@thehonestwatchdealer
@thehonestwatchdealer 6 ай бұрын
At the current conversion rate that’s £13,400 and is inline with the prices we’re seeing online. Most clients choose the plain dials, however, so it can prove a slower seller in the market! But we’d always advise that you buy what you like and buy to wear, that way you can never go wrong 🙌🏻💯

I would buy the Yacht Master Chocolate dial , it looks stunning and i dont mind the loss . Also the TT Daytona Black Dial , i think it looks more Masculine than the white Dial . Also are the DateJust fluted Motif Dial’s are they worth Keeping ?

As long as you’re buying what you like, a loss makes no difference 🙌🏻💯 Fluted Motif dial DJ could be a good one long term, but in the current market people much prefer the plainer dials 👌🏻

Is there import taxes to pay? Or once I wire you the money is there anything else I am responsible for? That is the real question. I find your prices with the dollar to the pound to be better than most prices here in the US at times. I have bought many watches from various Grey dealers here in the US and just wire my trusted dealers, and in 1-2 days I have the watch with no tax as long as it is a wired transfer. Is this the same for you guys or is there an import tax I am responsible for? Thanks for helping me out here! Also what is the best phone number to contact you and what is the best British time for you guys!
