Need advice on 6007g purchase

[Alexandria_Rolex]

Hi everyone,

I need your collective advice on whether or not to purchase the 6007G. I expressed interest to my AD on both the 5212A and 6007G and it seems that they’re leaning toward allocating me the latter.

Despite the controversy over the dial not being done by hand, I still like the look of the watch, especially the red version. My problem is that I know that the same watch is being sold on Chrono24 for $5000 less than the MSRP. It just doesn’t seem like a very good value so I am hesitant to make the purchase.

Could you please give me your opinion on the watch, whether to buy it new from the AD, and any other related information you might have?

Thanks in advance,

Casey

Not sure if I'd call it "allocating" a watch when it's readily available from many ADs. Love mine. I mean for a 5k premium id rather get from an AD but honestly seen used ones for a lot bigger discount than that

Thanks, I really appreciate the information. I didn’t realize that this reference was so readily available. I guess that explains the price difference between MSRP and the secondary market.

The one advantage of buying from the AD is that it can give you better access to other PP models. Immediately after buying my 6007G, the AD regularly texts me their incoming PP allocation to see if I'm interested in purchasing any of them.

That is a very good point I plan on buying more Patek watches in the future so maybe paying the premium isn’t so bad in the long term…

Thanks!
