Well, everyone bought high and still hoping to sell high. No one wants to lose money on a steel sports Rolex! But stop the buying, and the correction will continue.

Yes as far as i can see the major drop only applied to Hulk/Batman/new Pepsi because the prices of these models were skyrocketed and of the LN models is quite stable

Yes it seems to have stabilized + market has already factored in HK unrest.

Interestingly though, Chrono24 shows increments in the pricing of Hulk. I wonder if perhaps rumours are abound of discontinuation in 2020...

why are the prices for sport steel Rolex in such high demand, is it because traders are creating this demand or are there actually that many rich Malaysian buying Rolex.

the prices may adjust slightly, but to 'tank' dont think so, the demand for steel sport watches is still strong, Watchefinder UK and a few other retailers have suggested discounts, but the original prices are double (2x) AD prices, so the slight adjustment is justified but prices is far from tanking.

Rolex watches will never tank.. just like stock market it'll have a short term correction before trending up again.. similar to Dow Jones, 97 was 1000 point and now over 28000...desire is there, demand will be .

There are many wealthy Malaysians buying Rolexes (plural). That wealthy lot are responsible for easily 80% of the new purchases. They have multiple Rolex watches and a spending problem  :thumbsup:

There are even orang miskin bandar rocking Rollies (singular), I'm one  :Laughing_on_floor:

The grey market price has went up way too much for Pepsi and Batman, a slight drop in price is still not justifiable  :thumbsdown:. My brother and I always buy from the same salesperson and even that still can’t get our hands on directly from boutique.

Visited a grey dealer recently, and been told that lately most of their new stocks are from local ADs/ boutiques. Wonder how to get our hands on any sports model from ADs or boutiques?? ???
