Hulk dated 2021?

How do you think this has come about? Quite interesting


https://www.chrono24.co.uk/rolex/rol...id20355047.htm

Has that watch been made specially or has the card just been dated as 2021?

My understanding is Rolex still ships out some discontinued models until they run out. I wouldn't disqualify this because of the date.

Could have been new old stock. Not sure how it works but given it’s been discontinued for about a year I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility

I am no expert, but I don't think this is surprising. The new 12 series Subs came out in late 2020 (Sept) and since the date is the day the watch is sold, it is not unreasonable to think an AD sold an 11 series Sub in early 2021. I believe 11 series Subs even still got delivered to ADs past Sept 2020 - I think.

It’s also not unreasonable to believe a certain AD had this in the safe until this year for a VIP

this is the most likely case. Or the owner keep it for himself, and now, for whatever reason is selling it.

LOL! I didn't even notice the price.

What in the world. This is why Chrono24 valuations are nearly garbage.

No, the price will do that.

I think my favorite is how the seller is still charging GBP 50 to ship to the US

C'mon, this one comes with its bezel protector. That's gotta be worth like $30,000 extra right there, no?!?!?!

I think the price is way too expensive, I recently saw a hulk with a much lower price.
