New Rolex Submariner
« on: March 07, 2012, 06:19:55 PM »
I am happy that Rolex has finally updated the Submariner, but wish it was 42 mm instead of 40 mm. Oh well, 5513?

Since the old Sub is going for 19k now... these new ones are likely to be around 23-24k?
That's like GMTIIc territory.... blur...

I really dont know how the RP goes. Those days when rolex price goes up, the AD tell me that
USD strengthens against RM. Today when USD is low, they tell me that swiss franc is v high against RM. I agree that the new yatchmaster n sub ceramic will be at least Rm25K RP.

26k? That's like the price of the Sub C Date... Submariner 14060m should be around 19k+ no discount.

Why you say so?
It's still 40mm, albeit a bigger case.

Was at rolex gardens this afternoon, 14060M still under 20... I think 26 is the submariner date
It is time to take the plunge???

I bought my black Sub (M series)  at about rm18k in 2008. After 4 years it has increased by rm8k albeit it was the older version. So if I want to buy a Sub now, I have to forked out at least RM20k. Glad I did what I did then.

x2  :Cheers:  sadly that's how Rolex is advancing and hope they won't do anything supersozing to the Daytona. New exp 1. has lost it's charm , same goes to exp.2 .  The bigger aren't necessary better . I m not being biased I m speaking just on my own opinions. I wn big watches too, offshore ,yatchmaster 2,iwc..  But Rolex were true beauty on the previous 16610 and all the explorers before there were lugged being sized or super sized ! And common admit it, we are no celebrities :p

Glad Rolex didn't kill the Submariner (basing upon the rumours and uncertainty swirling around this past couple of years). Even with the new ceramic bezel, this is the closest, relatively, to the original design. I personally love this 114060, and am interested to see it in person. Some say it will only reach our shore in September, which I hope is not true. As to the price, I'm hoping it's gonna retail at RM16K, though some might call that daydreaming! ::)
