10k Note

a smarter move would be 1pc of S$10k note

Total agree i paid my Sub Lv by a SGD10k note is a very big note and easy to keep in the pocket!!

and yes, bring cold hard cash and you will be rewarded

"... and both you and the SE will be rewarded"..

[seiko.citizen]

that is true.

you will be surprise sometimes bank have no big notes, not even $1k note. i ended up with 4 big stacks of $100 notes whn buying my daytonas

ok i have some new questions...

i) which sports model? - i feel sub will be the most popular...and it looks great with the bubble date...but may i noe what would be the latest series now? Will M series be newer than L series?

ii) half gold or stainless steel? I feel half-gold looks striking (one look and u know it's a rolex) but more exp and less resale value...

iii) chapter ring - i guess if i buy a new watch now, it shd have the chapter ring

iv) bezel colour - total black looks the most classic imo...but not as striking/ distintive as other bezels like green...

v) purchase point - KHH @ People Park Complex seems the best AD for cash sales. But what abt credit card instalment sales? would it be the best as well?


vi) accessories - other than the watch, what other accessories shd i be receiving? rolex box, certificate, rolex green tag, receipt...wat else?

vii) discount - what's the max discount range that i can ask for a sub for cash/ credit card payments?

viii) series- i noted that number series (instead of the rolex model) is always being mentioned in this forum e.g., Rolex LV1234...wat does this mean? Which number series would then be the latest?


thanks all
