      Well it would depend on the model,age,condition,box and papers of course my friend.

      what seiko meant is like this...he did not mention the age,so it can be a 10 year old submariner at 4.5k...at 40+% off the list price. But of course a 1 year old submariner maybe commading about 6k...that's only like 20+% off the list.

        was at a certain preowned shop (chinatown point) yesterday..sad to say the guy attending to me look me no up!

        don't seem to be interested to serve me at all and his answers give me the feeling he just want to shake me off. actually saw one DJ which i wanted to get liao but his attitude put me off so i decided not to let him earn my $$$.

        anyway, a 7 yr DJ at $3.7k - ok price? I'm sure can go lower though.

                            isn't the choice obvious?

                            anyway i seldom get preown watches, so i will always go for brands new ones. why is it that the price of preown is still so high? couple of reasons, they want to prey on buyers' ignorance.

                            the shop is probably targeting overseas travelers where rolex may be more expensive in their home country, so they treat you transparent or see you no up because if you don't buy, someone else will.

                              don't talk about shops, no offence to anyone. i find some of the preowned posted here also asking for the sky..

                              just my 2 cents
