Most Expensive Rolex in Production 18956

[gbcecil]

WOW! This is an amazing Rolex, the 18956 BRIL with inner Bezel Engraving!
Sant Blanc uploaded a short video review today of this watch with a meteorite diamond dial, baguette diamond bracelet and bezel. AMAZING!

Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JloRR88gbM

Let me know what you think of this $177,850.00 Rolex.

I personally wouldn't wear that thing even if they gave it to me!

Good to see though, kudos for bringing it to TRF.

That's $277,850...and I think it's cool. Different from everything in the line up. thanks for sharing.

... 118206 to be honest. I LOVE platinum but for more subdued reasons than this. Yes the metal has a 'liquid like' luster which I LOVE but I like to leave the Ice Ice to my baby

[SohAIS]

Wow. Different. Not my thing. Thanks for sharing.

[Flyjet601]

Wonder how it looks on a NATO

[LA_LEC]

Wow...that price tag is impressive but that is a lot of platinum and diamonds.

[DRKBC]

I think it is more tasteful than a good many I have seen, nice ladies watch I think.

[Chaching]

no thanks not my cup O tea.....but will take for free ...

[Hairdude1]

Not for me but to each their own

[luv2fly]

Different strokes for different folks...good it's out there as an option for someone who would wear it...not my cup of tea...

[MovieGuy]

Actually that watch is available with a pave' dial that makes it even more expensive!

going to have to disagree here, i would gladly wear the heck out of it in the house

wear my SD outside:-)

sell it eventually

[Psmith]

Actually, I think the GMT Ice is more expensive (assuming it's still available - I believe only 10 have been made) at circa $400k

Ref. 116769TBR

I could take any old thing, cover it in diamonds and sell it for $200k. That to me isn't valuable. It isn't even complex or hard to make

[Rolexman28]

GMT ice is the most expensive I tried one on at the mall of millennium in orlando last year ....MSRP was around 500K but both are crazy money for a watch

[CKU]

They have another one for 450k http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6_NzdmBnpc

[james1787]

Not really something I'd want to wear, but to each their own.

[LightOnAHill]

I'd rather do the gmt ice.

I like platinum for its metal, and wouldn't adulterate it with diamonds...

[crowncollection]

gmt ice is the most expensive

[threemonkeys]

I think it's stunning. But I don't have the look or lifestyle to successfully pull that baby off.

That gawdy watch is 8 ounces for $277,850 - that is $1,240.40 per gram of platinum. Now, mind you, platinum is about $30 per gram right now. There are 28 grams per ounce of platinum for a total of 224 grams at $30, equaling $6,720 in platinum value and there are about $3,000 in diamonds (at best) so that means you are paying a whopping $268,130 for the same movement as is in a $30,000 DD. Or, to put it bluntly you are paying over $235,000 for nothing but the opportunity to say you own the most expensive Rolex watch. There has to be a reasonable price point in this market. I'm thankful for free enterprise but this is just plain price gouging or profiteering or whatever the economists call it. It's crazy ! ! !

[36475koz]

...yes but is it safe to wear in the shower???

[singe89]

Not my style but cool to see.

[PatekCollector]

I would put this value with Patek.

[HRV]

they both would look great in my safe

[jamesbondOO7]

Not sure about the all green colour.

[thewatchguy93]

And what an EPIC piece it really is!..

[mmmk604]

If I can afford that, I'd rock it

[MonBK]

So was I.
