Daytona SS price check
I've recently noticed a few Daytona SS that haven't sold here in the forum. I am cnsidering a purchase of a BNIB SS wth all the stickers still on including all bxes and papers. MSRP is $ 12,295, how much of a discount should I expect? Daytonas are still very desirable, if only a small discount is available shoud I just purchase from an AD?
Have a wonderful day. |

The amount of discount on the Daytona is up to your bargaining skills and watches like the Daytona are only desirable if you want to own one and wear it.

I think there is still a strong demand for the ss daytona. I have seen every other rolex watch at my local AD's but have never seen a steel daytona in the display case

You can get plenty like new condition ss daytonas for around 10-11k from the trusted dealers in the for sale section. Its tougher to get discounts at the AD, really depend on where you live.

I'd find a barely used example here and save a few bucks. Stainless Daytonas are not rare today despite what others (read: ADs) tell you.

OP didnt ask if they were rare. OP wanted a price check
$12000 plus tax BNIB from an AD is about right discount minimal BNIB from an AD. David SW is selling for $12275.00 BNIB used? $11000 plus easy |

Purchased one from an AD in May 2013. Price was $12,000 out the door, and they discounted the watch so that the price included the 8.25% sales tax.

Perhaps the price on david's website are not the same as his prices on here. Also i assume that on his website he's including the use of credit cards to purchase so expect higher $$$.

i can only comment on what i see. i am also unaware of the fact that one must 'negotiate' with a non AD.

Bob's Watches has about 17 pre-owned 116520 (both Black and White faced) for around $10,200 listed on their website. As others have said, I bet you could get a better deal with Trusted Sellers.

i would check a lot of things before i bought that watch at 10k. there are a lot of factors that determine pricing. no one is giving away anything, and that includes $200.

12K is the AD price for new Daytona SS. Good luck getting a discount, I was only able to get tax included for 12...

Yeah depends on where you are. I know some dealers in Singapore charging over the retail price for the black dial version. Personally I think it should be discounted maybe 10%-15% off retail.
