Buying submariner on TRF

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but do you guys have any advice for using the search feature on here for a BNIB submariner? Everyone talks about how great the sellers are on this forum so I thought I might try looking around to see if they can beat my AD 12% discount....Thanks

beating 12% is not unheardof for TS'

just search the reference number and key words like sub-c or ceramic or submariner etc...

good luck.

12% AD discount? Where lol? I want to buy a DSSD and 12% discount would help me push it to purchase.

If I had an opportunity to purchase a rolex at 12% brand new I wouldn't buy anywhere else IMO.

It's an AD in Minnesota when I used to live there - I've tried to refer others but they won't discount over the phone unless they know you - In 2008 they gave me 17% once on a stainless steel date just ! Not anymore :-(

Add "jizeal" a.k.a. Neil Patel as a stand up seller here with very competitive prices. Bought my BNIB Hulk from him. Very pleased.

I think you can get closer to 15% off from trusted sellers here, and no tax. There are probably 5 BNIB subs on the first two pages of the buy/sell section alone, pretty easy to find.

If the Rolex is sold as new, I would want it to originate with a U.S. based AD and many times the Trusted Sellers have those; if it is used I wouldn't care.

Ditto. For 3%, its just not worth not getting the full ad experience and a worry free transaction.

If you want a watch from a US AD you must emphasize this to the seller. Some will want a higher price than an overseas sourced watch but I paid no extra. I wanted a watch sourced from here in the USA.
