Icon7 My first Rolex

Hello everyone,
I am new to trf and am looking for a bit of advice. I have my eye on the datejust ii, black mop with diamond dial. I have talked with my local Jared jewelers and there not budging at all on the price. Is there any suggestions as to how to get the best price on this watch?

Welcome

Maybe call up some other AD's in your area or go in and see them. There should be quite a few AD's in Florida. Try to get 10-15% off at least.

Alternatively, you can maybe contact one or more of the trusted sellers on this site, they may be able to help you.

If all else fails there is always ebay, but exercise appropriate care.

Allen, welcome to TRF! As already stated, check out the for sale section of the forum; I purchased my Rolex there and am very satisfied.

Welcome!

All the AD,s in my area do not negotiate on prices. Tourneau did have a limited finance option a while back, I dont know if they still do this. You can do a down payment and they let you pay the watch off in 12 months without interest. Maybe you can put a WTB thread in the sales section thats what im planing on doing.

Wow feels like World of Warcraft all over again spamming internet acronyms! "/2 WTB 18K TT/SS DD 8-10K PM ME FOR GROUP!"

WELCOME, and great choice.


You should be able to get them to take away the sales tax... and then a little bit. Good luck
