Watchfinder UK Daytona Prices Down Again
Spotted a 2022 white steel Daytona now about £35k with lower prices for slightly older models. These were £50k then £40k then £38k.

Have to agree although the Daytona has one of the best chronograph movements made today it must be the most hyped Rolex ever.But today hype sells watches as many buy the hype to wear it.

Plus, if you went into the shop today and offered 32k you will be buying it, I would expect Watch Finder paid 28K or less for that watch.

I think the price will land at the same place as last autumn, which is about £28k for the white dial. I think you will see that price around October time so now probably isn’t the time to buy unless you are desperate for one.

Haven’t seen that price yet myself for the white dial. Clearly they are dropping like a stone then.

Yes, if you look at dealer groups (either dealer to dealer transactions, or dealer to end-user), this is clear. The outward facing grey market has no credence when it comes to prices.

No no no! The price is crashing! Everyone says so!* They’ll be below retail soon*, and then you’ll be able to purchase at gray with a discount but it won’t matter because you won’t be able to buy as it’s the end of the world……*






















*not a real scenario, unless you read this forum

Dropping from £11600 retail to £26k?

I think you’ve got this mixed up!



They are priced ridiculously at the moment where they were ludicrous a couple of months ago.
