Celebration dials are out?
https://chrono24.app/rolex/oyster-pe...US&SETCURR=USD


This has to be a one of the biggest markups. Has anyone seen these hit in the USA?

You mean the colorful ones that look like lollipops on the dial? Oh wait, I think you’re referencing the out of this hemisphere price!

To each their own, but this is probably the last thing I would buy in Rolex's catalog.

It would be my second last after the emoji DD. Now that really is jumping the shark.

Oh, I misread the title as "Celebration dials are out (of style)." You know, because they're ridiculous.

Yikes! I hope to get one but that’s an absurd markup.

That’s a nice 915% markup on top of the U.S. MSRP…

The Wonderbread! I'm on the list for one. I have a feeling they are going to be really hard to get.

That would make the dial slightly more interesting if true

Would love to meet the person that pays that kind premium for a very basic watch.

I’d shake their hand, look them square in the eye & calmly say,,,,, “Idiot”

Apologies - I don’t understand what you mean?

What have the depth of my pockets got to do with an idiot paying a stupid premium for a very basic watch?

For the price we pay for watches that tell the time less accurately than a $10 quartz watch we are all idiots

I am waiting on a 36mm one but I am sure it will be quite a long time if at all.

The chrono24 listing is a "wishful thinking" seller
The 28K auction ending in Moda surprised me; i definitely expected this to open around 40K.

I'm guessing it'll settle around 20 or so.
