The last time I went to THG in SG they quoted stainless steel black dial Daytona 16,500 SGD.

I don't think they will sell at list price. Please enlighten me if you have purchased a SS Daytona from them before at list price.

To be honest, if I really like the piece, I have no qualms paying the premium over rrp for it.

Gotta admit they are nice. Even though I don't like Rolex that much. White dial with black ceramic is the cream of the crop

Really need to look at the watches in real life then only can get the right feel...

As of now, I think the color contrasts of the black ceramic with the dials makes the watches very "Tag Heuer Formula 1" like.....

But that's just me, I still prefer the existing models.

Totally agreed. For those who are no willing to pay a premium to buy at Malaysia AD, may consider to buy at oversea.

Am pretty sure they'll charge premium. Be prepared to pay

IMO just wait and don't pay above list for this, Daytona and all modern Rolex are mass produced it should not be charged at a premium.

Look what happened to milgauss when it was released, some dealers were selling it for 100% over the retail for the GV model. Compare to price now?

If we talking list price:

Should be low 40k's ringgit IMO.

Mine cost 14,272 AUD after claim GST. At todays rate of 2.97 should be RM42,390. So list price can't be far off this amount.

Low 40s would seem like a fair price. Knowing the ADs in MY though... Don't think that this will be the case.

Yesterday went to an AD in KL.  Although they don't have stock, but the AD guy said if they have stock, the current SS model Ref 116520 Black Dial they will sell for RM51k.  So I don't think the Daytona Ceramic will be less than that!

The list price for current model is already RM43,900, the list price for the ceramic version should be closer to RM50,000.

Bro Siera, you sure your AD gave you the price list for the new model or current Daytona?

i can see why everyone is after the White dial. The black dial looks too understated.
i kinda agree with swleong

To be honest, I was never a fan of Daytona - despite being an iconic watch that it is.

But this new Daytona 116500...man! Awe-inspiring look!

Yes I confirm the price is AUD 14,272 after claim back GST. You can ring up authorised dealers in Australia, this is the list price for whole of Australia.

So in ringgit is around RM42,500 at todays rate. I think this already quite expensive.

HKD 90,000 looks like retail premium.

Here you go more info on Australia retail:

http://timeandtidewatches.com/gone-in-60-seconds-the-rolex-oyster-perpetual-cosmograph-daytona-ref-116500-ln-video-review/

RRP AUD 15,700 (including GST AUD 1,427)
After claim GST AUD 14,272 = Below RM43K

So who have ordered.
