Buying pre-own Rolex help...

[sngricky]

Maybe my new post would be of some help here:
http://sg-roc.com/showthread.php?t=1784

Nowadays i don't get from yahoo guys or online guys anymore as sometimes their prices and after sales services are sucky as compared to shops.

Just found that i got "carroted" after checking prices of explorer 1.
I am sure that there are of course some real gems around but i rather get something from a place i can go back to.

Buying a Rolex

Hi Boys ,

Need your valuable input please. I wanna buy a Rolex with a budget of $10K. Not interested in a Daytona. Got any great recommendation ? FYI , first time i am exploring Rolex watches.

Get either the Submariner Green Ceremic (aka "Hulk") or the Deep Sea Sea Dweller if you are a big guy.

I do not think for a budget of S$10K, you can get a brand new green Submariner/DSSD, and definitely not a Daytona (even if it is pre-owned in normal condition)! For your kind of question, the recommendations will be plenty. So I'll rather you narrow down to certain models to seek a clearer choice.

For a S$10K budget and assuming it is a new piece, I'll get the ROLEX GMT II-C

you are right, that's why I suggested the hulk to TS.
Watchlink was selling 1 at slightly above $10k last week.

Try a GMT-IIc

Woo this thread is very useful, just what I had on my mind. So with a budget of 10kish I would be able to get a preowned GMT2C Two-toned?

Hehe sorry I know the thread is about buying a rolex with 10k budget but what if I were looking at IWC? What pre-owned IWC should I be aiming for with a budget of 10k?

For 10k,u can get a preown DSSD.wld b a gd choice.but for gmt 2C TT,quite diff.must top up abit.
If u want to get a new one for under 10k,the gmt 2c SS wld b great watch.
U shld go to the watch shops and try a few models on your wrist n see which one u like.
Good rollie hunting

You might try getting a Datejust II with the stainless Steel /White Gold edition. The price I paid was $9815 after discount.
