    The only problem I have is the "premium" price. One local AD has one, but selling at 12.5k, saying is a demand-supply thingy... I find that silly to be honest. If the list-price is 12.5k, I'll bite... but a "premium"? I'll wait ...
    Guess the premium is going away soon... Saw a grey dealer selling @ SGD$9,500 BNIB.

      It's just a normal production. Just wait a while ... Personally I don't want to be a carrot.

        Pardon being a noob, but what is the disadvantage of buying from a grey seller? Would Rolex honor the warranty if something is wrong within the warranty period?

          I quite like the new SubC - clean classic design and the full matte finish bracelet. However, at a similar price point (in fact the GMT IIc can be had for much less currently), I can't help but find the SubC underpriced for its lack of features/complications. At this point I would certainly pick the GMT IIc, a classic in its own right, for the added GMT complication.

          Does anyone know if the GMT IIc and SubC's cases are quite similar in person. Apparently there are minute differences in lugs and thickness?

                    Thanks for the link.

                    I like the full matte finish bracelet on the subC. Will not get hairliness scratch much easier than GMT IIc.

                    I like both GMT IIc and Sub LVc.

                            I do like Sub LVc a lot, it is an awesome & very distinguish watch. It is still stand out even u put with couple bottle of Heineken & Carlsberg with a green backdrop. Damn man ! It's still pop up & out shine !
                            But too bad now it price still high side, gotto give it 3yrs to settle down.

                            So now TT GMT-IIc is my ultimate gold
