GMT II Rootbeer II 126711CHNR Price Worth it?
Hi all,
Seems that many of the sports model are not available easily in the local ADs including where I am based in. Wanting to get the GMT II 126711CHNR but only available brand new in grey dealers. Do you think USD$18,888 for a brand new unworn is worth the price? Or should wait it out till price goes lower which i think is unlikely

Just have a little patience, can't see these be unavailable for long.

Its unbelievable the prices of the SS like the Pepsi and Batman on jubilee are almost on par with the TT! I think most of the serious collectors are moaning the lack of watches at AD but not wanting to get from grey dealers shops.

I was able to buy new as a 1st Rolex purchase at an AD. I feel like $17500 is more in line with a true price of this watch.

Was that how much you paid at the AD? Did you need to wait?

Yes. $17500 is on par in the secondary market.

Definitely wait at the AD rather than getting this gray. They are available for not much significant wait. A lot easier to get than their SS Jubilee counterparts.

$15.5 at the AD with taxes. And yes i think the TT is undervalued at that price.
