Bro, no right or wrong time to buy. Buy it when you are ready and lucky to see one (Sport model). Anyway, it will never go wrong for you to buy a Rolex.

My AD told me every time when I visit the shop. Not sure whether it is their sales-pitch or Rolex will eventually increase their price. As far as I knew, they usually increase it once every year and mostly happen between February and March.

Don’t think it is sales pitch. Last year the price increased twice already.

Out of curiosity,anyone who is lucky enough to spot Rolex sports model on AD?

Was in Bangkok last weekend,dropped by Siam paragon Rolex boutique;out of stock a d waiting list is about a year.

Anyway my friend went over to Zurich last week,sports model and GMT II all out of stock

Why the sudden increase in demand for sports model? Is there a cartel or something?  Unbelievable.

I'm considering the rhodium dial OP...

I have spotted few precious metal subs in Bangkok last week. And yes, no stock for SS model. They won’t lock the price for you.

Since it is tough to purchase from AD,so what’s the acceptable price range if to purchase from grey importer or reseller.

The range I saw so far from 36500-40000.

Thinking whether is to worth pull the trigger

these days getting a sports model is close to impossible.
i travel  a lot to many different countries, almost 1 to 2 countries in Asia a month, and every time if i have the chance to go inside the AD to have a look, there's no sports model to be seen.
there's so much hype these days.  :Blue:

If you don't pay, there are loads of others willing to pay the premium for a Sub and GMT-BLNR. But there are still people whom managed to get these highly-demanded pieces at retail prices, so there are still decent ADs around. If the supply was not artificially suppressed, the demand would be filled up and so too would the hype.

I saw a few GMTs and even a Batman during my trip to Netherlands, and also saw GMT at Paris airport and Qatar airport
