FYI, if the crown is too small for, I presume, your enormous hands, they make a winding tool to solve for the issue.

Sounds pretty decent if it's from a dealer? I saw a 2024 for 65

Gulp. The 16202 is overpriced at $35k, how can $67k be close to a good price?

Nothing is overpriced if you love it alot and everything is overpriced if you don't love it enough. This term is very subjective.

Yes, subjectively, sure. Objectively, the 15202, just a few years ago was $10,000~ less expensive. Updating the movement probably saves AP money. I leave it to MSRP to give the buyer an idea of what the objective value is of something to the company. Sometimes the margins are high (likely in 16202 AP’s case), sometimes they are very low (the Reverso for instance). I can’t in good conscience buy something so far above the perceived value assigned by the company that makes said product. We’re not even talking OOP here.

I mean the market sets the price, whether it's a good price or not is relative to that. Everything else is just opinions about value.

Was today in Prague Boutique. First time in years have seen so many models in store including Jbo steel and also new titanium/special metal in red. Nothing for sale of course as I just walked in but interesting whoever is passing by.

AP seem to be making an effort to at least get pieces into the boutiques for people to look at and try on. They aren't for sale but overall at least people have something to look at and try on . . . vs the totally emptiness of 2 yrs ago.

I guess credit is due to Rolex for this model.

Prices have creeped up a bit, seeing mid 60s on the 16202st and mid 40s to low 50s for 15202 depending on the year on dealer networks.
