Hi all,

I have a brand new Rolex SS White face Daytona for sale. Never worn. I promised the wife I would sell it since she let me purchase my C4S. I would prefer to sell it locally . I paid approx. $8,900. I have all the paper works and reciepts . You can even call the jeweler to confirm my purchase. PM me if you are interested.

 

What year movement??

 

Is the jeweler and authorized Rolex dealer? Whats their name and number?

 

I purchased it a few months ago so would assume it's this years movement. One way to check is to look up the ID# on the watch.

I bought it at Shrieve in S.F. They are a authorized rolex dealer. You can find their number in the listing.

 

Also, I was on the waiting list for over a year.

 

Is 8,900 MSRP?

 

got pic?

 

NO!! List is like $6000.00. The Daytona is very difficult to get. Browse ebay and you will see them all selling for $9300-$10,000. $8900 is a good price. In order to get this watch, you either pay up, or are on a list. A list that typically only consists of the Dealers best customers(purchases of $100k+ of merchandise.

wow... With pics like that maybe I'll keep it...

 

Alex, don't mean to tell you what to do, but, I would definately keep it. This has been a hot watch for 20 years. It only is going to continue to appreciate IMO. if you get really strapped for cash, you will be able to unload that thing in a second. I have to think a dealer will buy that watch wholesale from you for at least $8600, probably more, and that is a reseller. As the price of the Daytona goes up, your watch will be worth more and more. Not to mention, in my entire life, I have never seen anyone actually wearing a SS Daytona. I have seen solid gold, my friend had one, but never SS. This is a testament to the rarity and exclusivity of this watch.

If you only paid $6k - keep it - your crazy not to

 

Thanks LSM I just might do that...

 

Why is this watch so popular?

 

The Daytona Chronograph line has always been popular and held value well. This is the case in SS, two-tune, solid gold, white gold with leather strap,,etc. All Daytonas hold value. They are not produced in high numbers. A late 1960's Daytona with Paul Newman dial just broke a record for a watch sold at auction for the highest price ever. Something like $360k!! Anyway, I guess I didn't really answer your question but, to me it is so popular because it looks better than any watch I have ever seen!!
