My watch shop visits continue. I was surprised to see a new two tone model gmt from Basel 2018 in Ken watches. Massive price of HKD195,000 or US $25,100.

$25,100? LOL

Might has well just buy the full gold green dial.

Scapegoat · 12 May 2018, 06:59 PM

That was quick... so much for control from Rolex.

Old Geezer · 12 May 2018, 06:59 PM

Will be interesting to see if it’s snatched up or sits. I bet it sits. TT is for those that can’t afford full gold according to some posters LOL. I’m betting I fall in love when I see one in person.

Highjinx · 12 May 2018, 07:39 PM

It looks great and I don't like two tone. Who would have thought they'd make a brown watch though! How much should it cost?

25k? Wow, wouldn't be surprised if the Pepsi hovers around the 20k mark.

ladies and gents, let the madness begin!

Ruud Van Driver · 12 May 2018, 07:59 PM

Pffffft. I’d buy a PM Daytona or Sub rather than pay that sort of premium. Utter madness.

Jacobson · 12 May 2018, 08:17 PM

Full rose gold GMT would be the better buy

AK797 · 12 May 2018, 08:21 PM

That's ambitious, even here they were asking $20K.

yannis · 12 May 2018, 10:36 PM

Jokers.

037 · 12 May 2018, 10:37 PM

Bargain!

ccaballero · 12 May 2018, 10:38 PM

That’s crazy.

Danny83 · 12 May 2018, 10:41 PM

Hes smokin !! That watch will not go for over MSRP I have already had 3 ADs ask me if I want one... They got them on 5/7

AdamG · 12 May 2018, 10:45 PM

Most expensive (overpriced) two-tone in history?

I’ve seen a slew of these posted by various grey dealers here in recent days (one asking HKD175k...195k sounds pretty optimistic)

chauhien93 · 13 May 2018, 05:16 PM

You should have a look at chrono24, they go from 19xxx usd
HK is quite expensive

In no way am I trying to buy anything that is not new for more than the cost of a new one. That’s just not very smart.

moyski · 14 May 2018, 12:48 AM

gone are the days where people buy a Rolex to wear. can’t wait to see how crazy the 126710blro prices will be in the grey market.

OgSnowflake · 14 May 2018, 12:50 AM

If it was 10 off retail I’d still pass.

Rolex.c6 · 14 May 2018, 09:17 AM

Oh wow, that price is ridiculous.

123Blueface · 14 May 2018, 09:29 AM

Good luck.

With social media there are many non-WIS who now want to be first to show off their new prize and make the girls yearn and the guys eat their hearts out.

T01 · 14 May 2018, 10:00 AM

No way, ever....

c41006 · 14 May 2018, 10:23 AM

Hey I guess you can’t fault them for trying. I wouldn’t even be too surprised if someone scooped it up.

Oh, wow.

At some points, this gets stupid. Wouldn‘t a brand want to stop it, at some point. Or are they hoping, the balloon will keep rising further?
