I am very impressed by Rolex this year. My thoughts are, based on what Rolex has, nothing can compete against it within the price range (we talking list price range) Extremely impressed.
Let's look at the new explorer:

Proportions of hands are fixed. 3,6,9 lume. New chromlight. This piece is the hottest piece in its price range. I cannot find any piece that compete against it.
Now we all know after that there is the sub range, SS sub and sub date and hulk. This speaks for itself, nothing can compete against sub at its price rage. We taking list price.
And now the thing that blew me away. Rolex released the ultimate piece ever. The new Rolex Daytona in ss ceramic. This guys is game over for all the competitors within that price bracket. Nothing that beat it in that price level.

Just unbelievable. I'm blown away.
Totally blown away.
Well done Rolex for answering to the fans.
I know I'm getting a black dial ceramic Daytona.

Thanks for sharing. The Explorer 1 looks yummy. I guess have to wait until end of the year only arrive
-
Hands down to the Black dial with Black Ceramic Bezel Rolex Daytona!
-
I prefer this Air King. Looks like a winner alright...

Totally agree..seriously awesome stuffs!! Now the challenge is to find a piece when they hit stores..
-
Shall start putting RM1K/mth away so can get one ceramic Daytona in a few yrs :P
-
Won't be surprised if those greedy retailers play their - no stock wait list games and trying to sell those Daytona above retail as usual.
-
I'm sure they will... just have to wait them out as usual or buy from scrupulous sellers only

Agreed. I like the green seconds hand either, not forgetting the yellow crown. It appears very "Rolex".

-
Explorer and the daytonas are amazing , wonder what size is the explorer it looks as if it's smalleR,Or did they just fix the proportion of the hands
-
Daytona sure long q list

New Explorer looks amazing, love the slightly fatter hour hand and longer minutes hand. Has it always used the Superlative +2/-2 Chronometer rating?
The new Daytona looks to be a favourite too. I can't believe Rolex has listened to the feedback of fans on both pieces, they've done a great job.
-
Regarding the new Daytona ceramic.
Spoke to some dealers and they say I can get the first one that arrive and they taking deposits now however they don't know what the retail price is. Too early to tell if they r lying or the supply will be enough.
This is also dangerous because the retail price could be anything. At the moment I'm basing the price on the official 11,800 CHF. So should be around 50k ringgit.
My guess is unlike before when the Daytona had the zenith movement they had to rely on zenith for movement now they product their own I don't think they will have issues with production. Also the decline in the watch industry would basically force them to supply the market or miss out.

My choice is either the new Explorer or Air King...its time to save up some funds and wait till the real deal arrive in our shores.... :thumbsup:

Just ordered the black dial ceramic SS Daytona from an AD in Australia.
Price is 15,700 AUD, after tax is 14,272 AUD. Works out to be around 44k ringgit. Am first in line and can't wait! Happy with price too. Although I expect the price to fall in the secondary market by approx. 10-15% in the long term.
Mind you I had to deal with a lot of bad dealers who asking me questions like:
"how much premium you want to pay"
"oh long wait list"
"retail premium this one"
"we don't know when can get stock"
All sorts of excuses. One guy even told sub C got 1 year wait list. Such bs. can you believe it. Anyway managed to find a good AD which is doing the right thing.

Wow.. great deal. Mind hooking me up as well? Cheers

No indication of delivery date. But I think October.
You can try Malaysian AD, I think the price is around 43-44k ringgit. But most of them very action. hard to deal with.

You are right, most of them are action I felt. Most probably a premium will be charged eventhough they are accepting pre-order.

Yea here r some proof of the kind of attitude I was dealing with. I would not wish to associate or contact this type dealer ever again. Check this out.

It has always been a mind blowing experience with Rolex watches....
It is sure mind blowing.. :o

new model is good but i am more prefer the old version one.
the old version looks more attractive to me like coke bezel Gmt and old sub.

I am so much impressed... :Praying:

Old version good also, I suspect that the stainless steel version before the ceramic one should start to go down in price because a lot of people I know are upgrading to the ceramic. I will still keep my stainless steel version though. Maybe the price will stabilise in the long term but for now the price should be going down.
-
Unfortunately not when I checked with AD Rolex at BSC, the old SS Daytona still selling at premium and on long wait list ..... :Confused:

Imo there should not be a waiting list for this.
I am confused also but old Daytona can be had at grey dealers for cheaper than retail. Brand new.
Also second hand prices is lower than retail.

Almost any sport watch that rolex stop making will go up in price

IMHO, these AD are always "creating" the fake demand and waiting list in order to justify the premium charged on the sought after models. They will tell the walk-in customer that the model is on waiting list, but if you show the keen interest, they may sell you with a premium charged. I have experienced once. Anyway, just my 2cent....no offend.

yea agree the wait list is fake. We all know the person who well known with the AD will get the hot pieces first.
but it is against rolex policy for AD to charge above retail.
I was speaking to the AD I ordered my DaytonaC from, they advised that if you have proof from a receipt issued by them they can help lodge a report with rolex. However if AD is big AD like hourglass which is known to always charge "retail premium" over hot models like the Daytona. I don't think rolex will do anything about it.
If small AD rolex may step in and take away their licence.

Thank you, bro, for your advise and comment. My previous experience was with Swxxx Gxxxxxx. Don't think it is useful to lodge a report with Rolex as it is a big AD, therefore, best thing to do was just walked out of the boutique and bought at other boutiques or oversea. I found a boutique in Singapore Airport is charging reasonable price on Rolex models they sell and they have some of the sought after models, few months ago.

This is very unreasonable price for a steel Daytona. Wonder how could they quoted so much or they thought the potential buyers do not know the market price? Unless it is a vantage watch, maybe...
-
this is about supply and demand... rolex strictly limits the number of watches (esp. popular models) to the ADs to create the impression that their watches are always "sold out". This creates the perception that rolex is always in demand thus driving up prices even above MSRP.
My visits to rolex ADs here in PJ/KL is similar, vv bad attitude, basically "... up to you, take it or leave it... i don't care..."
-
Oh,my bad..not the steel one,they quote me the price for the upcoming daytona,but still i think a bit overpriced
-

RRP CHF11,800 according to internet source, based on current exchange rate, should be approximately RM49,000. Anyway, this is not official Malaysia RRP.

Good job again Rolex!!!
-
Rm80k sounds a bit of a stretch and illogical for the new steel Daytona.... Dont think any AD is crazy enough to quote 1.6times of market price... It's counter-intuitive.... For 30k extra u could spend for a family vacation in Switzerland and other EU countries and buy the watch while you are in Switzerland.....

Trust the ceramic Daytona will be selling at premiums easily 10-15% higher than list price.

Hey man, IMO shit AD you got quoted there. If you were dealing with them before this, i think you should put a stop. There are soo much reliable ADs you could trust and depend on for example The Hour Glass. They quote one of the best price and even better than Grey Dealers sometimes! Im still waiting for them for the new SS Ceramic Daytona quotation. Will update you guys once i receive news from them :) :thumbsup:

Hourglass always selling steel Daytona above list. One of the staff from hourglass tried to sell it to me for 17k sgd. very hard to get discount there and they have a lot of VIP to deal with before they look at small customer like us. If your not big buyer I don't think you will have any luck with hour glass.

On a separate note, I checked with another AD in Australia, they will not indicate a price as they have not received the pricelist. And they will not put me on the waitlist because there is no pricing yet. Possible to PM your AD?

hey Man, it's definitely easier to deal with Swiss AD and rest assured they will not sell above retail price but it is not very common for Swiss AD to offer discount especially for Rolex, PP, etc. But, you'll not deal with bunch of arrogant ADs as what members have shared here..... And, it may be easier to get the model you want compared to the ridiculous waiting list Msia!
As you know, as tourist, you can claim the tax refund, which is not going to be as much as other European countries as Swiss VAT is only 8%.

Newbie in purchasing from oversea.. how do you purchase when you cant bring a lot cash?? do you guys done deal via credit card?
i think there is a cap amount $$ (not sure how huge amount allow) bring to oversea. The new Rolex daytone is price more than the cap amount if not mistaken.

Yes, indeed there is a limit imposed as part of measures to deal with money laundering issue. In the case of Switzerland, you will be asked questions on the origin/source of the money if you are carrying more than chf10k or in the case of most countries, more than Eur10k....if you have not sourced ur money from illegal business, personally i dont think why u should worry on this, just declare....a hassle i agree! On the other hand, i would never carry that amount of cash travelling abroad due to theft issue. I would normally use my debit or credit card to purchase large sum items...been doing that with no problem....just call the bank and let them know you will be travelling to certain countries.... The only downside is of course FX rate imposed by the bank plus some commission imposed by Master or Visa will add to the cost.....But for convenience and peace of mind, that's an acceptable cost!

Actually i prefer credit card purchase rather than cash.. it is save, convenience and safer during travel... it just my past experience where I encounter credit card block during purchase time when amount exceed a certain limit... this happen in the past when i try to purchase, transaction get rejected due abnormal transaction (safety feature).. need to contact bank to inform the i'm doing purchase.. if at oversea, it might be troublesome to contact bank..
Is multiple credit card usage to purchase allow at oversea?

Hodinkee just did another write up on it. http://www.hodinkee.com/articles/the-new-rolex-daytona-reference-116500ln-details
Btw some ppl been asking me where I got mine ordered from. It from Smales and the list price is $15,700 AUD. After claim gst is $14272.72 AUD.
Its a reasonable list price imo.

super rich just buy and tell the AD to sent him / her the bill

So anyone here ordered any 2016 pieces?

I'm waiting to view the Air King 2016 in the flesh, or rather in real metal. I still think that it is such a surprising move for Rolex to sway from the beaten path in the Air King. The Daytona Ceramic has been anticipated for years, so it's kind of expected to an extent; but that Air King was just simply ooh-la-la... :thumbsup:

If anyone is on the hunt for a ss Daytona and has upcoming plans to visit Korea, I was in Seoul a couple of week ago and saw at a number of ADs the white version on display at list. If I recall correctly they were priced around won14m...

I own the previous version Explorer 1 and after seeing your picture, it makes me want to buy another one !
-
looking at the pics..
Daytona cosmo black face is a dream for me!

It's heavy premium over retail.
Davidsw just sold one over 20k USD. Retail approx 13k USD. Also he sold it very fast.
Now it seems if you have a piece you can earn a lot of money.

Just ordered the black dial ceramic SS Daytona from an AD in Australia.
Price is 15,700 AUD, after tax is 14,272 AUD. Works out to be around 44k ringgit. Am first in line and can't wait! Happy with price too. Although I expect the price to fall in the secondary market by approx. 10-15% in the long term.
Mind you I had to deal with a lot of bad dealers who asking me questions like:
"how much premium you want to pay"
"oh long wait list"
"retail premium this one"
"we don't know when can get stock"
