Is everyone invited ?

Hey guys,

So my cousin has been a huge fan of the Rolex Submariner and I followed him scouting around for its price and realised that the date version goes for approximately RM33,500 while one of the dealers around KL quoted us RM35K.

Hence, he decided to go ahead with the Submariner no date version which retails at 27k++

Though I have a question, would he be able to use nato straps on the "no date" version ? The dealer claimed that the lung of the submariner no date is the same with the date version hence nato straps could be used.


Could I please clarify this with you Sifu's over here ?


Thanks!

Apple_DarreN man, that blows. From experience, it is infinitely difficult trying to get FB to respond- whether for troubleshooting, or even reversing incorrect decisions. I am in a similar boat myself with FB, albeit not as serious as your case. Considering FB owns IG, you may have trouble trying to get in touch with the folks behind IG. Good luck, bud.

Kelvw beautiful pics and thank you for sharing. You have captured the brushed finish very well. So well that I actually went in to an AD over the weekend to have a closer look at the Exp2

My GMT is likely gone tomorrow, so bids one last goodbye:



Thanks to all for your reply.

Just headed over to Rolex and bought this for myself😜😜😜😜

Thanks man. I was always eyeing on getting a Sub and my parents decided to get me one for my graduation. Really wanted the Submariner with Date but having it being priced about 6k over the No Date version just made me ponder if it was worth forking out that much of cash.

Lol

Cool, i'll use the original bracelet for a while before changing it

Was strolling around UK and walked into a few watch shops and was pretty impressed with the design of a few Hublot watches.

Any idea as to why isn't this brand famous in Malaysia ? Ive never bumped into anyone using this brand except our beloved PM

Cool, wasn't aware that Hublot was a young brand.

Was watching a few videos on Youtube and decided to share it here. Kevin Hart's watch collections: Here

Not too sure if everyone is aware of Rolex change in their warranty policy.

Rolex warranties are non transferable

I wasn't even aware of this and assumed that it was something new.


On the other hand, any Patek Philippe fans here ?

Tried out the Calatrava 5119 and instantly fell in love with it though not to forget it comes with a hefty price tag

That's definitely a good looking Daytona. Mind asking how much did you buy it for ? RM73K+ ?

That's a really nice watch box. Hows the built quality and did you buy them from their online store ? I was pretty keen in getting those by Scalota Del Tempo but its pretty pricey.

The only thing that's holding me off from buying the watch box from WOLF is that their shipping is pretty expensive (USD90).

Try posting your sales on watch forums as you would be able to earn more by finding a seller directly than selling it to a watch shop which would usually offer you a much lower price

What watch are you getting next as a replacement bro ?

Haha yeah. He supposed to invite us over to his place to explore his batcave, right ?

Damn buddy, that's one good looking two tone!

Agreed with what you said. Bought my Submariner last month and the sales executive informed me that they aren't allowed to sell it below a certain price but could sell it at any price above the tag.

Was looking for a submariner with date and a few shops were quoting me RM33,500 and one of the dealers around KL quoted me RM36,800 and claimed that prices would be going up again within the next few weeks. Started bullshitting around that the demand is extremely high and Rolex sent a notice of wanting to increase their price within a month. It's now more than a month and they still haven't increased anything and that clearly shows that he was trying to bullshit and squeeze customers.

Told him that I was willing to do a full payment and he slashed the price to 35K immediately. Asked him how the hell he could suddenly provide me with a 5% discount and he claimed that would be the price that he offers to customers i they paid by cash. Told my parents to stop wasting their time and money and ill find another dealer.

I went back to the same dealer the next day and the staff that quoted me previously RM36,800 (RM35,000 by cash) wasn't there. Had another Sales Executive that served me and she quoted RM34,800 if i wished to pay by card.


Clearly shows that the dealers are over inflating the price.


End of the day, went to a different AD and bought a submariner.
