Same here. My SS OP Datejust was my wedding gift. It's 36mm, and some say it's small. However, to me it's the perfect size dress watch/casual for my 7.5 inch wrist. Simple and classy. The new larger watches look hideous in my opinion. My SS Submariner will never leave my collection. I buy what I like, and don't plan to sell any of my watches.

is it really a "bubble" if it never pops? i'm okay with it because it means if I am ever in dire need of cash, I can always flip my Daytona even after I've been daily wearing it for a couple of years and still come out ahead

Douche central, don't pretend you wear your Daytona to work on cars. Change your blinker fluid bro.

This week we will see what exactly happens to the current secondary market.
Lots of rumors floating around what will happen. Exciting.

As i said, looks like the BLNR and LN as the 116710 have been discontinued and replaced with a new BLNR 126710 w/ updated case, movement and jubilee vs oyster. The LN is gone for the time being. Now to see how the secondary market reacts. Hopefully i made the right play by selling all my inventory last week when prices shot up. Also, after talking to a few dealers this morning, sounds like most are not carrying over the old BLNR waitlists. So those that were on the waitlist for awhile waiting for a BLNR to show up, now need to go get back on the waitlist.

Speaking of Basel 2019 Rolex Novelties, I don't think BLNR with a jubilee would cause a fanflare as much as Rolex's Pepsi GMT MASTER II with a jubilee bracelet .
In other words, I don't think BLNR Oyster will be less favorable in long run than BLNR Jubilee Yacht-Master 42 MM is a great upgrade over earlier models My fave novelty is GMT MASTER II with Meteorite Dial but for GMT MASTER II Line , my fave is same watch with a blue dial

I saw a bunch of old BLNRs from dealers shoot up in price after the announcement, but it seems they are starting to creep back down to the $13k range or so where they were before.

Classic watches have definitely softened a bit. Some Daytona's are down $20-30K from asking prices. Red subs and 1665's have come down a little as well.
New watches is another story. Still can't get them from an AD unless you know someone.

Nice choice, an ultimate Rolex watch for anyone who like to draw no attention yet to own a high end brand's product
Happy Days

There is no Rolex bubble, there's only Rolex controlled secondary markets where prices will either increase or stay mostly flat since the minute prices start to fall, lots of buyers will jump into the market, even during a recession.
Of course strange things can always happen, but I think we're in a new normal. |
