[fallraen]

Hi there, I am looking at a pre-owned D series yellow gold daytona 116528 with white dial with diamonds. Price quoted is S$23,500. Is this a good price?

Gold watches can push 1 the price...

Hi ppl, do let me know what is the best price and best place to get the SS GMT IIc. Looked through the thread, looks like some ppl are able to get discount off the retail price $9559. Thank you!

Hahaha I wish I know where to give u the best price and best place as it varies from person to person

Thanks for the advice. Generally how much can we push - 10%? Maybe 20%?

hmm mktplace got quite a few SS GMTIIC gg for reasonable prices.

unless you prefer to get from local AD then you would need to pull some brudders here to buy on your behalf if you want to get discount for SS GMTIIC

Hi, i will be heading to sg in a couple of months. Do prices of rolexes go down during christmas/chinese new year time? Its my 2nd time in sg and im looking for ss sub or ss gmtII and possibly just checking mid-size half gold yachtmaster prices too.

Also when you say pay in cash, is that direct deposit from a bank account? If i use credit card is that still = cash? I dont think i can bring more than 10k sg paper notes in or do i open an account in sg and transfer money there. Still new to overseas shopping ^^.

if im from overseas going to sg, how do i pay by cash like do i need like a bank account there to transfer money to or a credit card is enough? I dont think i can bring more than 10k paper notes . Still new to overseas shopping.

Also im after ss sub and half gold mid size yachtmaster prices. Will be my 2nd time going to sg.

price of rolex never go down. it always go up. only difference is that the discount is less or non-existent during christmas and chinese new year.

i was just informed by one of the AD that handles rolex that discount has shrunk by 5% for ladies DJ models. popular sports models like sub discount is zero currently. explorer I may get 5%.

if u pay in cash, u just hand it over to the sales staff and you get your watch.

CC =/= cash. cash discount is usually better than CC.

if u want to bring in more than the allowed amount, just keep quiet. notes in big denominations are less obvious.

I thought is not more than 30k sing dollars..

[spoony]

I dont even want to bring more than 10k cash overseas, let alone know how to withdraw that 30k and exchange it. Highest notes here is only $100.

If you are from china, can use dbs,hsbc, 工商银行，农民，中国银行。

How certain are people that there are no discounts over Christmas? I am going to Singa over Christmas and hope to pick up an SS Sub Date and an Explorer II.

I have been in contact with The Hour Glass and they say they can offer a 5%discount on Sub SS Date. Not sure about Explorer II, does anyone know?

Also every AD here in London say prices will go up by 10-15% in January . Might be better off getting the watches now seeing I might not be able to get any discounts in Singa and prices are likely to go up in Jan.

Any views?
