However if your holding on to MYR the retail price may change depending on how the MYR plays out. Recently a sharp drop when Trump won the election and there are policies that he is going to put in place which could significantly weaken the MYR.
It is possible that the retail price of this piece to be around the RM60k+ mark in the future.

Received a text from my regular SA a few days back on this, I replied with a pic of my RO15400.
Funnily enough, I had offered 70k back in July when they received stock but he wouldn't budge from the 75k.
That experience made me realized that I was better off getting something else and glad that Rolex "pushed me" into acquiring my first AP.

I'll probably end up getting the Daytona Ceramic... but only at retail. If not, I wouldn't worry. At 75K there are so many other watches that I would rather get.

I would place my money on the 15400st too. Did you get the blue dial?

Yes, I did get the blue dial. http://www.malaysiawatchforum.com/index.php?topic=17511.0
At retail and it's cheaper that the Daytona C's current asking price.
I also see myself getting one in the future (hopefully nothing more than retail) but not before getting my second AP ;D
I think by that time it's going to normalize at 60K, doubt going to be less than that given the falling ringgit.

Ok Rolex, you've already captured thesuckersearly adopters that were willing to pay premium on the Daytona Ceramic. Time for you to flush the market now that the numbers have stabilized and everyone is trying to sell for a premium on Chrono24, Timezone etc but no more people are willing to pay premium.

Swiss hour sold one recently close to 70k ringgit. Still staggering price if you ask me.

Getting it below 70k is easy these days. Getting it below 60k is the hard part.

Dealer said Rolex limits the supply on Daytona.

That AD was just telling fibs. If he know you who you are, he will voluntarily get it from the safe, invite you to try on!
Rolex makes zero profit from people who resale their watches. All the vintage Paul Newmans and what not don't get into the Rolex accounting books. The Foundation running Rolex would not do that. A company needs to sustain its profit goals else it would piss off investors, employees, brand name etc

Could be true.
I'll get my other friend to place an order tomorrow to see how things pan out.

Ad mention can order but wait time is very long ad mentioned that they can't guarantee the time frame and it could be 2 years or more depends on how much stock they get for Rolex and deposit is required.
This year AD only received 3 Rolex Daytona C.

Yeah they will take orders but need to deposit around 10k ringgit. They also sell at list price which is $15,700 AUD inclusive of GST which you can claim at airport. GST is $1,427 AUD. This is current list price. It may change if AUD drops.
Also AD said the list with deposit around 8-9 people. So they don't know how long is going to take because they don't know how many pieces they will receive next year. This year they receive 3 pieces. I waited not long because I order first so my wait time was from March to August. mine is 5 months. Other AD's in Australia like watches of Switzerland is very bad. They got "vip" list. So no chance to get from there. And J Farron Price in Sydney also no chance. Hourglass - these guys also no chance.
My friend that order same AD as me wait time was March to end of November. so his 8 months.
I think if they receive like 6-8 Daytona a year it means wait time is around 1 half year or 2 year to get.
The point is. If you put deposit and wait at this AD. you will get your Daytona at current list price unless currency fluctuate or rolex change price.

Not bad at least no need to pay premium. This will not happen in Malaysia.

My experience in Malaysia and Singapore was bad.
Before when I was searching for pre ceramic ss Daytona. All AD that have stock wants premium for it. At the time in Malaysia they wanted to sell it to me for 40k ringgit.
Back then I manage to buy it for 30k ringgit for brand new SS Daytona black dial without going to those shady AD's that wanted 40k ringgit for it (note that this was way before the ringgit died). SS Daytona non ceramic black dial is of the piece I love very much.

Even at 65k, I'll probably pick up one, if i can get one.
Post by: theseira on November 30, 2016, 10:54:14 AM
I got quoted 75K for a ceramic Daytona by Cortina. And I'd like to think i am a reasonably good customer there.

Yeah Malaysia and Singapore very difficult to buy hot pieces.
