current prices in HK
Hi, im new here, been lurking a while but joined today .... 'cuz ive finally saved enough to buy my first rolex! I'm planning to go to hongkong to buy it this weekend! Saved for it for 5 years!
Thanks to all the opinions and posts ive read here, ive narrowed my choices down to either a milgauss GV (if i can find one in stock) or a ss DJ2. I really cant decide which one, but i think ill be very happy with any one of them so ill just decide when i try them on... my question is, would any of you know how much these two watches should cost right now in HK? i plan to buy this weekend already... if i go to an AD in HK, like, emperor, how much discount from retail should i expect for each of these watches? It matters to me as im really on a tight budget (as i said, took me 5 years to save up hehe) I also read in separate threads about a current price increase - has rolex increased in HK already? if not, should i hurry already before it does? hehe Thanks in advance for all your kind help! |

I understand that a GV would cost around HKD49,000 and you would not be offered any discounts if you go for ADs (e.g. Emperor) since GV is still being considered as a hot item over there.
I suggest you to go to the below link (unfortunately in Chinese but you will know the price that a grey dealer is offering). This grey dealer's main business is sale of handbags with watches being a portion of their business. Very good reputation therefore no harm to visit their shops around Hong Kong for a quote. http://hk.f2.page.auctions.yahoo.com...tion/b10118944 SS DJ II is too new for most grey dealers in HK therefore unlikely that you can locate one from them. Last time, I was told that it costs approx HKD66,000 for the ADs which would only offer you maximum of 7% discount. Good luck with your coming purchase. ![]() |

The Milgauss GV is a different story my friend. They are still sourcing one for me (with a little discount).

I just came back from HK, saw GV in some places however I believe they were not ADs. Though I dont remember the exact price tag but I believe it is around 47-49xxxHKD. Cant imagine they would offer discount on GV but Im sure you will be able to slice 15% off on DJII!!
Good luck and happy hunting!

I would recommend read as much post as possible over here before spending your hard earning money, too many fake/imitation out there.

argh! i went to HK already last weekend, and im only seeing your posts now! haha, really? 15% discount on the DJ2? darn!
Anyway, no use crying over spilt milk - i finally bought my rolex! a ss DJ2, the one with black dial and roman numerals! i got it from a store near harbour city, the name on my receipt is solomon watches, i think. Got it for only 8% discount tho... :( I paid around HKD51,300... but its ok, i love it anyways! hehe.... will post pics when i got time to take them, as i need to catch up on work and clear out my inbox first hehe. |
