Local Torneau store has a preowned 04 SS black face Daytona for an unbelieveable $15,500. Also a preowned TT white face Daytona for $11,500. My AD has a new TT white face Daytona for msrp$12,675. Crazy numbers out there!

Yep, I saw a pre-owned black dial with thin hands in the window of a local Tourneau a few weeks ago. It was around $14,000-15,000, Wonder what they paid for it?

Sorry but just cannot see what all the fuss is with the SS Daytona fat hands thin hands and anything in-between.And IMO if anyone pays these now ridiculous grey market prices must be sixpence short of a shilling this is whats keeping the prices so high in the first place.

For fifteen thousand bucks, i'd expect a date .

You can get a TT Daytona for at LEAST 10% off MSRP. I did better than that. ADs don't want their names thrown around as discounters. Go out of state....avoid Florida and New York.

It costs that much to get a date in your neck of the woods, huh? Must be tough for the guys. LOL. Maybe it's time to move or try a different cologne/aftershave in order to get a date for less money.

No kidding... for those prices I'd expect a date and breakfast in the morning...hehehehe

Did he also have a $10 bill for sale at a bargain $15?

In Buenos Aires Argentina they were asking $15,200 (US) for a TT Z series new Daytona. With the MSRP of $12,675 I was more than a bit suprised. You can pick them up on the grey market for under $10,000. Not sure if they were price gouging, or it is a factor of the inflation rate in Argentina.

Get on a list with an AD. But some watches. Get on a list for the Daytona. They reserve them for their best customers. Then do not flip it. Enjoy it and the great relationship you will have with the AD. Pay no more than list MRSP for it. Do not try to get a discount. aws

Totally agree. I say we boycott! Never buy a SS Daytona above MSRP. If somehow all did that then the speculators that rape everybody on the price would die out.

In my world it will happen. I refuse to pay over MSRP. I am on two lists. One or both will come through.

The funny thing about that outrageous price is that someone will actually pay that price if he is desperate enough
