It’s a versatile piece that can be dressed up or down, making it perfect for any occasion. It's hard not to admire such a beautiful design!

    • @Anonymouslyme1
      @Anonymouslyme1 3 года назад +3

      I don’t think you’ll get one without prior purchase history and if they tell you that you are on the register of interest it means nothing. If you really want a new Rolex sports model try for an Air King or Millgaus you might just get one of those. Otherwise go grey.

    SKY DWELLER Missing

  • @sidneyt1016
    @sidneyt1016 3 года назад +4

    So I have a question. Putting aside Role’s great marketing, how many of you feel the watches are really worth the price for what you get? With probably the exception of the Oyster Perpetual, Airking and Explorer, I really think they are over priced. I’m looking at an Omega Planet Ocean. Resuscitate either the Sea Dweller or Submariner. The Sub and Seadweller are beautiful watches and iconic, but I just can justify paying almost 4000. More for submariner or even 8000. More for Seadweller when you factor in an AD discount on the Omega. I understand the argument about holding value, but you still have to find a buyer. If you don’t plan on selling, is it really worth the money? I’. Not bashing Rolex or their owners, just trying to understand what I am missing here.

    • @bobswatches
      @bobswatches  3 года назад +3

      Putting aside Rolex's marketing the watches still have great value. The specific material and architecture are some of the best out there, but some of the prices in the pre-owned market can be a little steep because of demand and of course the marketing Rolex puts behind it. The demand of these watches highly out weighs the supply so those prices keep going up...

Still have oyster perpetual printed on the dial?
