I'm considering a Sea Dweller. D293XXX - Serial in excellent condition with box and papers.

Is $3700 a fair price?

steveseiko · 15 February 2010, 03:31 AM

Very fair price, I'd scoop that up.

sea-dweller · 15 February 2010, 03:32 AM

Yes, good deal.

Luxe Time · 15 February 2010, 03:37 AM

Thanks guys... just to get a better idea, would you say this price is:

a) Above average
b) Less than average
c) On point

Thanks again, I appreciate the help!

sea-dweller · 15 February 2010, 04:22 AM

I'd say less than average. $3700 for a D series is a pretty good deal. I would expect that an average price for a D, would be in the range of $3900-4400, probably more on the higher side of this range.

gone-rolex-mad · 15 February 2010, 04:25 AM

buy it!

Luxe Time · 15 February 2010, 04:43 AM

Thanks for the input guys. I'll let you know when I get it and post some pics. If anyone else has advice in the meantime please feel free to comment.

Get it FAST! (If everything checks out)

While in Florida in December -09 I was offered a used SD at 4.800 usd.

46and2 · 15 February 2010, 05:18 AM

Crappy deal. PM me the seller's info so I can dispose of it properly.

Luxe Time · 15 February 2010, 06:22 AM

haha i'll PM you if I pass on the deal.

sleddog · 15 February 2010, 06:25 AM

I think it's a good deal....I got my F with everything for $3750 in great condition!!!
As long as the seller is trustworthy,I would say jump on it!!!

rolexsubdate · 15 February 2010, 06:46 AM

Yes ... excellent pricing ....the seller told me you're making him wait too long ... I just PM'ed him ....

nauticajoe · 15 February 2010, 12:29 PM

Think that's a good price for a "D". I noticed the prices are going up, especially on the last produced "V's".

ParisDakarBmw · 15 February 2010, 12:33 PM

Sounds great!

1175 · 15 February 2010, 01:14 PM

Very good price for a D. I have noticed a slight uptick in the used prices in the last few weeks.

HL65 · 15 February 2010, 01:16 PM

Definitely a good price!

Gob Bluth · 15 February 2010, 01:30 PM

Won't do much better than that so jump on it. The Sea Dweller is

Luxe Time · 17 February 2010, 07:32 AM

I picked up the Sea Dweller today- thanks for the help! The seller didn't take my initial offer but I believe it worked out to be a fair price.
I'm planning on selling this one to fund a new (M or V) Stainless Sub. Stay tuned for pics!

Thanks again guys.

sakuraba · 17 February 2010, 08:49 AM

You're flipping it already?

Mike1066 · 17 February 2010, 09:09 AM

That was quick!

CPTL · 17 February 2010, 09:17 AM

I think he bought it to flip, not to wear.

Gob Bluth · 17 February 2010, 09:21 AM

I love the "he didn't accept my initial offer" line from OP, which I'm assuming was $3700. He's really doing a good job of setting up the soon to be issued justification for selling way higher than $3700 (just a hunch). That said, no justification is needed as OP can do whatever he pleases. Good luck w/ the sale.

Ross, haha I love the thinking.
Yes, I did buy this particular watch with the intention to resell. I paid a very fair price and hopefully someone will also buy it for a fair price.
It's already up in the classifieds section! Let me know what you think.

nauticajoe · 17 February 2010, 10:01 AM

I was provided with a price as follows:
Z @ 5900
M @ 6000

Both are new from a grey dealer. Good deal?

Luxe Time · 17 February 2010, 10:02 AM

Sounds good to me.
