Yep...

Fall the soonest guess for the US, also depends on their popularity........ Don't expect many Grey Market offerings..

But, probably just in time for a nice Christmas present........

Not sure. When they introduced the GMT IIC I went into a Houston dealer a matter of a few weeks after Basel and it was there. You never can tell I guess.

I have a feeling that the Deep Sea is going to be a scarce watch

How Long For The Replicas - - - Gasp!!!

How long after a new launch do you begin to see the replicas popping up?
They seem to be getting faster at releasing these junkie trinkets.

I'm first in line at my AD... they don't have the official MSRP yet even though we think $9500 (is that confirmed?). My AD did say that Rolex said that supply will NOT be an issue with this watch... IDK if I believe it yet, but if this is true should be good for all.

Does anyone know the thickness of the DeepSea. I've read 16mm but couldn't confirm it.

Deepsea - update on price

Rang Rolex this morning, they said it will retail from £4750 (for the SS model) and it will be available in the autumn in the UK. Rang my local rolex dealer and they hadn't even heard of it!

Reacon in time for Christmas, and I wonder those that buy them will buy to make a profit like the Milgraus GV or daytona.

How many will actually buy for themselves.

By the way spoke to St James Park RSC today, The current SD is not being discontinued and will run alongside the Deepsea.
