Got quoted last week Gandleman at Hyatt Aruba- $8100 USD out the door no duty/tax.

I passed hoping to find a decent deal used.

OK, I may be crazy and often my wife calls me just that but I cannot find a mint condition used BLNR for anywhere near these prices above never mind new. Can somebody please post a link or PM me one that shows prices close to where these gentlemen have paid and witnessed? I only ask for my sanity sake.

aaronr you should have grabbed that and ran. After paying of course. If you see another one with a price like that brand-new and don't want it let me know I will buy it.

TimeRookie you got a killer price as well. Congrats! I somehow feel abused now for what I paid.

I keep hearing stuff about another price increase in Canada; anyone the wiser? Also, anyone know any AD's that are willing to negotiate more than 5% (Canada also)

All three of those examples are used watches. Two of them are at or higher than the brand-new price the other guys showed and the third one was just slightly below it. No offense but those are bad examples and they prove my point that those guys got unbelievably awesome deals

I thought from this quote you were looking for a new or used one. Sorry to mislead you.
The reason mine was cheaper is because Rolex hasn't adjusted the CDN prices to reflect the drop in our dollar compared to yours. It would take only $.75 US to buy one CDN dollar. The list prices are only about 10% different right now. Therefore we're getting an approximate discount of 15%. From what I was told yesterday, the Canadian AD's are expecting that to be equalized in the new year. For once my timing was good I guess.

Yup. Of course, this does not include the very long waiting time. That is why I decided to get the BLNR slightly used. In fact, the price that I got it for was already a steal here in the Philippines. Normally, Slightly used BLNRs here in the Philippines go for 380-385K Pesos.

I asked rolex in rockwell for the blnr, they said wait list is crazy long. The price though was at 390k pesos bnib. This was in december 2015. So i bought mine in Japan instead, bnib a little less than Phil price.

The Rolex store in Rockwell is now in Green Belt 5 and when I inquired about the BLNR last January, the price has increased to 420 -430K. And yes, thec line is crazy long.

Yes, paid $8950 at an AD in the US just last week. No deals from any AD I have seen, other than one months ago offered $8700 for one if I ordered it with a 2-3 month wait.

Also paid full retail about six weeks back, at AD in Atlanta. Did manage to avoid sales tax by shipping out of state, where I happened to be traveling on the upcoming weekend.

By the way, the Rolex watch store now in Rock-Well is owned by the same owners of Lucerne. That 390K is the discounted price but the line is still very long for the BLNR.
