Your thread title already say it is half gold submariner. you say it is submariner half gold.

don't understand what you asking.

as to what is the new piece price, are you asking what is the new list price? you can consider either visiting the shop to ask the list price or if you shy, can google the AD contact and make a phone call to ask.

if you are asking what is the possible buying price, it will vary from

AD to AD including different branches of same AD.
buy local or overseas
and most important you as a customer. if you are a first time buyer @ the AD or repeated buyer.

maybe you like to read all the relevant threads in FAQ especially this thread

As the box and cert diff will around how much?

[newbie09]

It is a TT, box and certain maybe a couple of hundred. But condition of the watch is the most important.

why buy preown old model when the new model brand new with better features is just a couple thousand more?

To you, a couple of thousands may feel like nothing. But to others, it maybe alot!!! So please think before you comment, as not everyone is born with a silver spoon or as rich as you!!

newbie09 u r correct, plus not many rolex lovers like the new models.price is one factor, costs of maintaining as another factor.
