TT Blue Sub 16613 - US AD current price?

Hi -

Does anyone know approximately what TT blue subs (16613 not the new model) are going for new at US ADs these days?

I know list is $9,300 and they seem to be around $7,000 or maybe a bit less new/gray market . . . an AD told me 10% off list the other day, less of a discount than I was thinking for TT but I'm not sure . . . any thoughts?

Thanks.

They are no longer available, so if you want a new one, 10% doesn,t seem bad to me. my .02

Good point submariner1, I may have been too optimistic in terms of price on this model . . .

Really? You mean officially discontinued, like the SD?
If that is true, then

I just sold the new 1 1 6 6 1 3 Sub-Ceramic for 20% off retail
I would suggest for you to wait untill..
the novelty is gone, then they would be selling for 30% off...exactly like
the 116713LN GMT-Master-II-C which in my opinion is more complicated
and costlier wristwatch to make.
Amazing how the market finds the right price for all products..

Yes, they are all gone at Rolex NY, so whatever is left in stores is it! Thats the reason I picked one up, love that deep blue. But, now I want the NEW blue, this Rolex thing is like crack!!

you can still buy an old style 16613 brand new in the U.S. AD's here in MA are right around 20% off with no haggling. now if you push them I bet you can get one at 30% off but it would take some work

Thanks wantonebad, 20% or maybe even 30% is a lot better than 10%, as I think about it the salesperson who said 10% to me did say they may be able to do better but she'd have to ask the manager . . . old sales tactic I know but it did really seem like she only had authority for 10%.
