I BOUGHT A SUBMARINER NEW FROM THE AD...and with Rolex's new patent masterplan, I'd get blacklisted!
I've just bought a Rolex Submariner brand new from an Authorised dealer for £9000 and yes i'm going to flip it straight away! But Vinny I hear you ask, you’re an independent dealer - what if Rolex discovered that an AD sold you stock knowing you intend to sell and profit? Its possible, How possible? Well its soon to get a lot more possible with the brand dropping their latest bombshell- they may have just made a power move that could flip (excuse the pun) the luxury watch world on its head.
First they launched their Certified Pre-Owned program to tap into the massive profits grey dealers were making. Then, by acquiring Bucherer, they effectively cut out the wholesaler AD’s and began sellin...

    I tried buying a Rolex Everose gold GMTII today and they wanted full retail. Sign to me that they’re still not getting a lot of inventory. I see them online for around $36,000 so waiting for a reliable seller to hook me up. I feel the longer I wait, the lower they’ll go for the foreseeable future.

      @@vinnyfrancis I once had a Rode lavalier kit. The quality wasn't really outstanding wirelessly, but it was quite usable via wire. So, I suspect that it is partly due to the poor wireless transmission. It's interesting that you don't make any changes to the imported audio. Therefore something else could play a role here. I don't know if the microphone used has a flat frequency response or is equalized in a standardized way, as is the case with some lavalier microphones. If it has a linear design, the frequencies must be lowered at 800 Hz and raised at 8 kHz using an equalizer in post production. The reason for this is that with a lavalier microphone placed in front of the chest, the frequencies around 800 Hz are amplified and the higher frequencies are reduced. This must be corrected afterwards.

I have been frustrated that all these non-watch enthusiast have made possible for me to purchase watches used to be able to get relatively easily. Look if the business is growing, great for that. I can’t complain there. But if we have people who aren’t genuinely waiting for it, really wanting it, taking a spot in line, get out of the line do something different and let legitimate people purchase the watches. So me personally I’m in favor.and yes, I’m willing to pay a little extra to not have to wait in a line with people who are simply trying to profit in this hobby

  • @dska2294
    @dska2294 24 дня назад

    Actually, it will help with crime. If someone steals a watch, it will be reported as stolen. Then they try to sell it to you because that’s how they get their money. You will definitely check to see if it was stolen, find out it is stolen, and return it to me. so for a time people stealing the watches will simply lose the stone object back to the person who owns it and then people know, don’t steal Rolex, you can’t really sell it on the aftermarket. This does have value to me.

Even at grey they're a very tough sell now so liquidity of them is not good and ease of resale will be challenging.
