Rolex SS daytona in HK or SH?

[tkc324]

Hi TRF~
Some of my friends are traveling to HK and SH for vacation tomorrow.
I was wondering if Hong Kong or Shanghai has SS Daytona readily available?

I am asking for a friend, who wanted to get one after seeing mine. In the US, its virtually impossible to get one, at least from the stores that we visited. Does any one know about the availability in HK or SH? He wants a black one preferably... which i know is the more prefered color in Asia.

Any input would be appreciated!!

Unless you have a good contact you'll find it as hard as the US if not harder to get one . Good luck , and take cash !

Hong Kong and China are Rolex capitals of Asia if not the world. There are many many models available and yes, you've guessed it except the SS Daytona. Sure you can buy one at a premium or unless you are one of those highly valued customers of the AD. I had to get the SS Daytona for my brother in the UK because of the premium cost.

But good luck in your quest.

Thanks for your input guys.... how much of a premium should I expect to pay in HK or SH?
What is the MSRP there?
