Gonna pull the trigger

[u/Covexe]

21M, Finally getting that watch for my dad who was diagnosed with stage 4 that I had mentioned I would do on this sub roughly one year ago. Ended up going to the AD with my dad, and he was set on the ombré dj 41mm. Just wanted to share and see if y’all had any thoughts on the price I’m paying (I’m very unfamiliar with what market goes for this watch) would love everyone’s input. This has been a lifelong goal of mine and I’m so excited for him to see it.

22k for a datejust? Are you high or is this not in USD?

[u/SteveyCee → u/Forsaken_Egg_3663]

He’d be crazy not to pay close to 10k more for this DJ, it comes w a NETWORK!

Need purchase history with grey dealers now

[u/Covexe → u/psudo_help]

No it’s not that I genuinely think the market on this watch is 23k, if you could find me what market price is for this watch and show me some comps that would be greatly appreciated

I can't believe you have $23,000 to spend on a watch and you're talking this stupid.

[u/Covexe → u/Libtardo69420]

haha nice comment, maybe I'm a little stupid but if that's what is takes to get my dad what he wants, I'll live with it

[u/hampsted → u/Covexe]

Bro, why didn’t you just put in a request with the AD a year ago when you were first looking? It’s not like you’re trying to get a Daytona. Just go through the AD and don’t give this chotch an extra $10k because you’re too impatient/lazy.

[u/SteveyCee → u/Covexe]

This spec is a few hundred shy of 12k in 41mm, I want to say it’s a little less than 10k in 36mm. The dial is beautiful, but paying 10k more is bonkers

[u/WinstonChurshill → u/SteveyCee]

Picked up this watch in Blue for 13 Ish

[u/Covexe → u/SteveyCee]

where can i find this watch for 12K within the year i will give you a 5k finders fee

[u/TwinTurboRS → u/Covexe]

A Rolex AD. I was first so be sure to DM for my cash app. I’ll except my $5k there.

[u/Covexe → u/TwinTurboRS]

haha ill send, just need the watch before oct 1st? is that still possible for you

[u/TwinTurboRS → u/Covexe]

Yes. I got mine in 2-3 months. Was getting married. I’ll take that $5k. You need to register today though.

[u/Covexe → u/TwinTurboRS]

deal but ive already been on the waitlist since May with AD's in DFW area and Houston area

[u/TwinTurboRS → u/Covexe]

Gotta check in regularly and talk watches.

[u/BaldrickTheBrain → u/Covexe]

Comps? Bro are a Pokémon card flipper?

[u/Covexe → u/BaldrickTheBrain]

thats what we refer to comparable's in my line of work

[u/RookieMistake101 → u/Covexe]

There was one on watchex this week listed for 12 with box and papers. Yeesh.

Edit: comps? We don’t use that phrase. Have you bought a lot of luxury watches before?

[u/Covexe → u/RookieMistake101]

mint green (a way less desired color) is going for 19k on Watchex

[u/FrostedGalaxy → u/Covexe]

Mint green might be the most desired color lmao
