Old Character

Well…..”news” may be the answer you’re looking for. But I get it

Well now we get to see what all the Lindsey Clancey supporters have to say about the state taking kids because…..hormones.

Not guilty because hormones. That or her husband did it.

Rolex isn’t selling less watches. They’re selling less watches to you. They say they don’t sell directly to the grey market……but that math doesn’t math.

Simpleton, they did have it in stock. It was literally on my wrist for about 15 minutes. They probably had one in the safe too, but that’s the Rolex game.

They have them. I think they give the subs, Daytonas, gmts to grey market dealers almost exclusively. The common man ofc the streets pays retail for the less desirable watches that are selling under retail on the grey market…..just happy to have a Rolex and establish a history, right? Meanwhile you’ve paid 2000 too much for a watch you didn’t really want and that dealer just sold two subs to a guy that’ll mark them up 4,000 and then let that AD use his condo in Costa Rica next month.

Over the course of a few years the Seikos will probably be off by 1/10th of a second.

I’ve got a Seiko that loses 5min every two days…….lol

That still does not make it the most recognizable or even close to it I think you and him are confusing prestige with recognition

---

No…..I mean recognition…,,more people (non watch) people are going to look at a Rolex and recognize that it’s a luxury watch then are going to to look at a Patek and know what it is. Hence the Rolex is more recognizable while the prestige of each would be arguable (by watch nerds, cause nobody else with give damn).

quote:

---

don’t think most people out in public are looking for the brand of watch people wear, or automatically notice Rolexes… unless they’re purposely looking for the brand/symbol.

---

Just people that are into watches. Nobody else gives two shits.

Allows them to inflate prices on desirable watches and move the undesirable ones. You’re not telling me they’re not selling, intentionally to grey market dealers at inflated cost, while their “customers” are spending thousands on watches they didn’t really want to try to gain favor in the future.

ETA…,,,I did the same. Was waiting on a sub, bought a used seamaster. Love it

Now do the same with statins and the decrease in CAD. Wait…..,

Are all the “ambulatory’s” in you post supposed to be “ambulance”?
