I can't vouch for them as I haven't received mine yet, but a "watch" friend of mine has two and he's pretty damn tough to please. He even had them custom make one for him. I think for the price, its a damn good deal - enamel dials are very difficult to do.Texicurean said:
I'm a buyer at those prices. I went ahead and put my name on the waitlist, but they say that it could be two years long.
Maybe I'll get an email in about two years from some company that I forgot that I never heard of wanting to sell me a watch.

I love the Milgauss and New Air King but wish they had the same thickness as the Explorer I (39mm 214270):YouBet said:
Of the Rolex lineup, I really only like the Milgauss (which I own), the new Air King, and that baby blue Day-Date 40 I would wear if simply so I could know what DoW it is. Because I can never remember. Lol.
I'm really digging that Air King. Probably because it shares the same case with Milgauss.
edit: I would wear the Daytona if you forced me too.

as a right-wrist wearing lefty that new GMT is for me. the good news is no matter how many ADs I call I'm never going to get the chance to buy one so it doesn't matter
If you are serious, ask FTAC2011Zobel said:

FTAC is awesome and can offer a nice discount off the prevailing gray market price but he will not be anywhere close to retail price of $11k.AgLA06 said:If you are serious, ask FTAC2011Zobel said:

Can't blue star this enough. I always appreciate the referrals and positive feedback from those who have worked with me. But I have to make it clear I'm a gray market dealer. I cannot get Rolex (or Patek, AP, etc) watches at MSRP. Other brands are a different story.
I have built a network of other dealers who have clients that get watches and flip to them and then they sell to other dealers like me who have orders on watches. I do the same thing by the way. I have many clients who get watches at retail and sell them to me. My clients are the ones making massive $$ by flipping to me. That green Daytona? Sold it. My client made about 100k on that watch. I made a few grand. Most of my watches I make between $500-$1000.
With that being said, if anyone gets Rolex at msrp and wants to keep their sale quiet, I can private sell watches all across the country and even the world. So I'm always buying and can make you money.
Can vouch for FTAC, he brings incredible deals by working the buyer and seller side with a very reasonable bid/ask spread compared to anyone else.
He was able to source a great deal on a Kermit last October that I was idiotic to pass on. If I wanted to buy the same watch today I'd need to fork out thousands and thousands more.

Yep, I've done several (4?) deals with him... always a pleasure. Good Ag indeed
I've done two deals with FTAC. Can't recommend him enough. Also referred a couple of other deals to him that went well according to my buddy.
Flipping through the channels and came across a deal that I knew you guys wouldn't want to miss for mother's day. Or maybe a little something for yourself?
The green one was 54mm, by the way.

I put my hand up for a lefty, will let you know if I get it and don't like it, we can make a deal.
Sounds like it would be right up some poster's alley.schmendeler said:

Damn y'all for putting anordain on my radar.

New watch day!
I saw this and it checked most of the boxes of what I wanted in my next watch.

Is that the brand new one?
Indeed it is.
A man of action
what it must be like for a brand to offer a new product that you can actually go to a store and buy
That appears to be the first one of the group I posted.

I thought the exact same thing. Release to a thread members wrist in a matter of days. Has to be a thread record.

Came wait until mine comes in.
Anyone see the new Moser Streamliner Vantablack?

They really went overboard with the antireflective coating.
I have been charged with taking my wife's necklace to our jewelry store today for some minor repair. They are also my local Rolex and Omega AD. All thoughts and prayers accepted in advance and appreciated.
She's forced your hand, really. No one to blame but herself.
Let us know what your favorite Rolex is they won't sell you!
I'm not sure that minor repairs will cost enough to get you into Rolex territory.
I'm not sure they would have a Rolex to sell him even if they wanted to.. a nice Omega on the other hand...
Parmigiani Fleurier is absolutely killing it right now. The new GMT Rattrapante is gorgeous. I believe its the first time a GMT has been a Rattrapante.
The new Czapek Rattrapante Sapphire is extremely cool as well.

I like it even better in grey. Shame the nearest AD is in Denver because this is almost exactly what I've been looking for, but would much prefer to see in person before dropping $20k
I know when I first got on this thread there was a discussion about maroon watches. Weren't a lot of examples thrown out at that time, but since then I've noticed a lot of really cool pieces coming out. Nothing has quite tickled my fancy yet, but at least there are options.
Welcome back.
I haven't been in a store in a while but it sounds like it's challenging to find Rolex to buy? Like any of them?
