I agree, in the end you get the same product at a better price. There are many trustworthy GD out there.

I'm sure there are many many great GD's but all this comes down to utter piece of mind with me. I now know that what i have is 100% and should have no issues.

As you do from any reputable grey dealer, for less money, with a 2yr Rolex warranty

No issues in the 70 or 80 I must have owned, bought, sold, traded in the last 25yrs.

I am having the exact same problem, but am steering towards Grey or nearly new and looking at the GMT here but its a little over my budget. I am also talking to a member here regarding sourcing me a Daytona or Milgauss GV when I go on holiday to Florida.

I think everyone is different.

If I am buying a rolex that costs around £2-3k, then yes I would defo consider grey ( I bought a cartier santos from Tempoking for around £2k about 6 years ago), but I am on a lengthy waitlist for a SS daytona, I will only go AD, for the peace of mind. When I am spending upwards of £6500, I value that piece of mind. It just sucks that I have a wait ahead of me.Lol!

Pro's are the same... but the Con's are that you would pay more at an AD!

If you have to ask or Vacillate about A.D or grey market then go to the A.D. because if you don't your next totally unneccesary quandry will be is it real or fake.Personally after many purchases over the years I would never buy again from an A.D. because most of them are hypocrites anyway.Where do you think all the grey market watches come from in the first place ? right out of the A.D's back door they wont give me the consumer a deal but will give their GREY MARKET competition a 30% or better discount crazy but true.Perfect example is the stainless Daytona before it crashed and burned I had to wait 6 months to get one from my A.D. but could buy a genuine one in 3 minutes on e-bay which I did from a company called Highlinetime they now have a loyal customer for life.
