Are they the biggest cucks in all of fashion?
>>18752505Yes
>>18752505What does "not there yet" mean? If you have the money, there should be nothing stopping you from buying it.
>>18752630A lot of luxury brands are a cult and won't let you buy the car/watch/etc. you really want until you are in good standing (have bought multiple of the cheaper versions first).
Lol. I wouldn’t buy a watch I have to wait for or one where I have to buy something else first. Then either the grey market price works for me or it doesn’t.
What is even the point they don't look that good
>>18752704The guy in OP's pic already sunk tens of thousands of dollars on products. The authorized dealer he's working with is scum.
>>18753313Not saying that the dealer isn't bad just because he's carrying out company policy, but the buyer is the one that has the ability to be aware of company policy and opt out of buying from them. To put it simply, he lost to Rolex. He conceded to Rolex by buying from them and expecting his purchases to allow him to buy what he wants. I would recommend to him and others: don't lose to Rolex. Don't pay Rolex prices for Rolex service.
>>18752505It's just retards getting milked.I bough my Rolex at the market peak in 2023 here in Europe, got it under two weeks having never bough anything from the AD.
>>18753313If you run a business and get a costumer with more money than sense, you would swindle them for every penny they have. These are luxury goods, it's not a necessity, it's not food or housing. That this isn't standard practice for every luxury product is disappointing. Rolex is doing a good thing.
>>18753313If you have to even ask then youre not “there” yet. When you’re there you will know.
>>18752505Rolex ADs are absolutely infuriating. I would go absolutely mad, if I got treated like this!…and then I realize, I can simply not choose to buy a shiny >look at meeee!!! Trinket, or, if I’m really that rich as all those cucks always claim to be, buy one grey and be done with it. Kinda makes me wanna quit my job and become a clerk at the Rolex store to humiliate those cucks. I have a few ideas to see how far I could go.
>you`re not ready to buy this product>oooh, okPathetic consooomer cucks
>Live in Europe>Go to Ace Jewelery in Amsterdam >I want a Rolex>Sure, here's a Rolex>Buy the Rolex>Get the Rolex>Get out of the store
>>18753313The idea of this guy getting scammed into buying trinkets he doesn't even want to be *allowed* to buy the trinket he wants by some vinny the scumbag is so funny.
>>18753642The other thing is that watches don't even do anything, they're literally obsolete. You could blow money on cars or musical instruments or tools or guns and at least it would have more utility than a $10 casio. For the amount this guy spent on shiny jewelry he could have built a full machine shop on his property
>>18752505People still haven't realized that you're supposed to tip the dealer? 10-20% tip and he'll sell you any watch in the store, and possibly some that aren't there.
>>18752505this is sad and makes me sad. good for him for having money but honestly I'd love to rip his face off and feed it to starving aboriginal orphans
>>18752748>waiting to purchase a rolexIt's not even a good brand anymore
>>18752505I don't understand why anyone would ever go along with this shit and spend tens of thousands on shit they don't want instead of just forking over an extra 2-5k on the grey market
>>18754327>tens of thousandsChatGPT says...>Based on estimated Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Prices (MSRP) at official Authorized Dealers (AD), this user has spent approximately $131,500 to $141,500 so far.Because official retail prices vary slightly by exact year and region, here is a breakdown of the typical retail costs for the items listed:>Watch Model. Estimated Retail Price (USD)>Rolex Datejust 36 Wimbledon (Smooth/Jubilee)~$8,050>Rolex Datejust 36 (Fluted/Oyster)~$8,950>Rolex Submariner Two-Tone "Bluesy" (126613LB)~$15,600>Rolex Day-Date 40 Olive Green Dial (Rose Gold)~$41,500>Cartier Santos Large (Steel)~$8,050Cartier Santos Medium (Steel)~$7,350>Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 46~$9,600>Rolex Datejust 31mm (Classic Midsize Steel)~$7,300>Rolex Datejust 36 Mint Green (Fluted/Oyster)~$8,950>Rolex Datejust 41 Blue Dial (Fluted/Jubilee)~$10,600>Tudor Black Bay Chrono "Pink" (Highly allocated limited edition)~$5,650>ESTIMATED TOTAL SPEND $131,600 – $141,600The "Panda Daytona" DilemmaDespite dropping nearly $140,000 on inventory, the user is finding out that a multi-brand Authorized Dealer still considers this purchase history "too low". The steel Rolex Cosmograph Daytona "Panda" trades at a massive premium on the secondary market. ADs routinely reserve them for VIP clients who have spent several hundred thousand dollars, or for clients purchasing low-margin jewelry.
Poolex poorlex.
>>18754189The guy in OP has bought seven Rolexes, what’s your point?You can’t walk into a store and just demand any watch.I’ve had jewellers as clients and each customer has an account with total spend, and if you’re not in the right tier you lose access to certain watches.This is in the UK for reference.
>>18754338Im glad the panda pet I bought in world of Warcraft was only $600. It's amusing to me, the parallel with this watch.
>>18754338>30k max on chrono24 for the exact watch he wantspeople can't be this retarded
>>18754355Don't underestimate sunk cost psychology
>>18754338For $140k, he could've gotten himself a Porsche 911 or some other sports car and gotten more enjoyment and more attention from it
>>18754348The UK is not Europe, it's an island of trash floatting near it.
>>18752505>>18754338There's literally 6 PAGES of Daytona pandas on chrono24, starting at 25K for the good ones.
>>18755235one would assume, if it is indeed true, that the gentlemen is wealthy so the amount isn't an issue. I too would make different spending choices but I am not rich so who am I to judge?
>>18755239Considering how good the super clones and frankens are, how certain could you be that a second hand Daytona was 100% genuine and authentic with no parts swapped out etc? Even totally disassembling it and having an expert examine each component might not be enough.The only way to be SURE it's the real thing is to buy from the AD.
>>18755316Many listings on Chrono24 are from legit ADs.
>>18755328But the name on the watch's papers isn't yours. Can you be certain of the chain of custody?
>>18753313Hilarious humiliation ritual.I think I'll stick with Seiko's better looking pieces.
