AD is offering me $8200 for a 43mm Bathyscaphe or $11200 for the traditional 5015 FF. No tax.
Thoughts?

I did try a GO on. It would probably get a bit more attention. They offered me a great deal ($9700). I keep waffling, but need to order something tomorrow. Have a meeting Wednesday I want to wear it to. lol

And if youre going to drop 11K on a watch….Just get a sub from a grey? 5015 FF pretty much looks like one anyway. Unless you want the SD chunky beast.

It would have to be a SD43. I think the sub looks a bit small on me.

Side note, similar to this, was watching the Teddy B video with Kevin O'Leary where they go into the NYC place with all the watches and each get 5 to spend. 1) The Hamilton Khaki Field Auto in Bronze….GOOD LORD…im in trouble. and 2) it seems like more and more people are making comments about rolex and the hype machine/not being able to get anything. Just more and more comments thrown about like that and people just getting annoyed and looking elsewhere.

people who buy rolexes are absolutely clueless when it comes to the history of watches and just buy it for the sake of showing off…. unless its belongs to pearlmaster collection

I might inquire about a Skydweller for my dad too. Doesn’t hurt to get on the wait list and see if they call.
I also doubt I’m gonna flip this watch either, I think it’s my favorite. The GMT is just so sporty and classy, I’ve been wearing it everywhere all the time and the jubilee bracelet is very comfortable.

I bought my omega SMP PO new for $3100 in 2017 and I can probably sell it for close to $5k now. If it wasn’t my first nice watch I’d probably trade it up for a Pepsi gmt but I figure I’ll keep it to pass on to my future son.

Place the image address in your post as
Also, depending on the size of your image, add an "l" or an "m" just befor the ".jpeg" so the image doesn't consume the entire screen. i.e large or medium
