Bark and Jack has lunch with head of UK Rolex

Interesting insights from this guy's VIP lunch event with Rolex UK. Rolex won't increase production and won't open their own retail shops.

Still doesn't change the fact that there is no shortage as they are just getting sold to grey and flippers.

Such a simple concept so many seem to miss.

Well, the fact grey price > retail would suggest there's a shortage...more demand than supply after all and it doesn't seem like Rolex can or wants do anything to change that.

Rolex is smart. It makes no difference if they sell it to grey or flippers. As a matter of fact everyone who owns one is a flipper. I can’t even get a 6263 model for retail.

Has anyone in here sold their watch for MSRP today?
