Hey Guys,
I know the new 44mm RG ceramic is a bit scarce now , would you grab one now or wait for better discount when they get restocked at ADs.
Appreciate your input.

s14roller · 14 August 2013, 11:36 AM

Only you can answer that q.

You want it now and pay more or want to be patient and pay less?

kilyung · 14 August 2013, 12:31 PM

I'd be patient and look for a better discount when more available.

texex91 · 14 August 2013, 12:34 PM

They are limited right now, so a bit of a premium. I personally would wait, but then again if it's singing to you sometimes things happen

Hairdude1 · 14 August 2013, 12:35 PM

Patience is key, I say wait it out

singe89 · 14 August 2013, 12:51 PM

I say wait as well. It's not an LE so they should be more easily available in the future.

Hkexpat183 · 14 August 2013, 02:20 PM

Unless you can get 20% or more discount now I would wait. Personally I think once the watch is more available you will definitely be able to get 20-25% discounts in retail. That is if you are willing to wait. If not and the watch is screaming at you as a must buy now...what's a few grand? Buy it! Life is too short!

I'd WAIT to get reasonable discount

TSW · 14 August 2013, 03:46 PM

They have problems with the dial production on the RG, I couldn't wait a day more for it and got myself other pieces instead.

Soly20 · 14 August 2013, 07:54 PM

Just wait. As this is not an LE watch, it will depreciate after some time so you might as well get it with the regular discount than get hit with a massive depreciation after purchasing it with a premium price.

travisb · 14 August 2013, 08:16 PM

Wait it out. Once the dealers are better stocked, you'll save yourself some $$.

Randy · 15 August 2013, 02:47 AM

Thanks Guys!! I'm going to wait it out.

samkumar · 15 August 2013, 03:20 AM

I am one of those guys who just couldn't wait and paid fair market for one, 38K. Are you guys saying once its in supply, you can hope to get 20-25% off $46,200 its MSRP. Wishfull thinking me thinks.

Just a quick edit : Mine was used, a year old and the bezel has a slight nick in it. I got it fixed and serviced, 3rd yr warranty by AP for $700.

I'm waiting for the right opportunity for the same watch. You'll pay a premium for not being patient.

Very smart and un-trf like! I would set a reasonable date that you would wait until and then buy when the date arrives come what may.

Lol! The contributors on this forum are maniacs. I've spent more on watches in the last year since becoming a member of this board, than I have in the previous 10 years.

Be patient. Some of these guys are very heavy hitters and can do it. While some of us will teeter on bankruptcy if we follow their lead.
