Rolex Yacht Master Ref 116622 Blue Dial


There have been a lot of positive comment on this Ref 116622 Yacht master Blue Dial Sunray.


Someone names this to be the most beautiful Rolex in 2012 after Beselworld 2012, it has been on sales in certain countries Starting November, yet to be in HK up to now.

This is a 40mm Stainless steel with PT900 Platinum Bezel, Beautifully laser cut and hand polished!

Rolex had an “entirely rethought” bezel and this is the major improvement (in addition to the bracelet) in that it does 120 clicks in both directions which should be smoother/crisper than before. As for the bracelet, this Yacht-Master has a solid link bracelet with the spring-loaded Oysterlock clasp.

In My opinion, it is much sexist than the Sand-blasted Platinum dial, But this Blue Dial may not be Platinum, might be white gold base!?

I am sure this is one of the hottest Models from Rolex in 2013, Take note and We should keep some money for this. Well, some Chinese does not like Blue Colour Rolex for it interprets “ Difficult ‘ in Cantonese pronounciation of “Blue”!

Well, I do not mind as the colour is un-resistibly Smart!

Outsdie HK is selling at USD$12,875 ( HKD$100,038)

HK List price is Just HKD$89,800 with additional 5% discount. that is much cheaper than you buy elsewhere!

Beautiful watch, but i wonder if this model can hold the value。 since the 16622 grey dial is only worth nearly half of the msrp。 i saw people selling new one for 7000++ usd,and good condition used for 5000usd, while the msrp is above 11k。 any advice about this blue dial i really want to get one but afraid of its drop of price in the future

Thanks HK Snob for the reply,

Do you think it will be available during my visit on first 2 weeks of March.

Is it possible to get more than 5% standard discount.

Could you help me to source one and possible getting a higher discount?

Sorry if i am asking too much, but i really like to get this watch.

i've also consider SubC and GMT master ii but i like this one better and i think its a good start for my, as it will be my first rolex.

Thanks a lot,
Ivan

Hi Ivan
Be patient,
This watch is so demanding by customers and I know that Philippine Rolex had sold one in Dec 2012. Sooner HK will have stock but not now. Let's wait for March.
Yes, this is a very beautiful Watch!! I love it too..
I think I can get discount for you. let's wait for the watch to come first.

Hi hk snob,

Thats a nice deal, i'll contact you thru email for the detail?

I think i could ask more discount in indonesia so that could match the price you get for me, since i wasnt in serious mood to buy and negotiate when in the indonesia AD, the sales person just give me the price above saying its after discount from 118mil to 108mil and i am wearing an old tshirt shortpants and flip flop sandals, they are kinna ignore me in the shop.

Anyway i think i'll get the watch in HongKong to support my homecountry economy lol(i am native HK live and work in jakarta)

I am just suprise that the price of luxury watch in indonesia is not more expensive and close to HK. Since the mark up of luxury brand Stuff are easily over 100% here.

Hi Ivan

That is not the same case I heard from other Indonesian who came to HK to shop for Rolex, According what he said, the price he got in HK is MUCH cheaper than in Indonesia!?

So I wonder why!? any way, you can mail to me as many thing i can not openly talk to you here.

I think you should help HK economy as Indoneaian Economy is too good already comparing with HK in recent year.

So they are so afraid of you as many rich people intentionly dressing lousily to tease the arrogant sales people in HK!! But I am not the one who dare to dress lije you in Rolex HK, may be the one in front door kicks me out the street already!!
You must be some kind of "Dai Lub Lo" in Indonesia!

Hi, HK Snob
Just sent you an email regarding the YM.

I'm also surprised that the YM is pretty close to the HK price. i also ask the price for the 116610LN and comes out about HKD68,000. i then asked how much discount he could give me for each of these two watch, first he said these are hot item so no discount and the YM just came 2 days ago, later on he said that he could "ask the manager" about the YM price which comes to 84,126 from about hk95,000. however he still say no discount for the Submariner.
i am thinking that maybe the YM is a less popular model here in Indonesia thats why they price to sell, furthermore they have 0% interest 12x installment payment option for every watch they sell, which makes the deal pretty, i am thinking to buy a panerai with the installment option after purchase a Rolex from HK.

The T-shirt short pants and sandals are daily outfit of most indonesian (will not look awkward on the street and most place), but they will dress up a bit while go to the shopping mall. i am more often being called 香港仔 than "tai luk lo" here in Indonesia haha.

Hi Ivan

YM should also be a popular model in Indonesia, And also they may have set a rule on the dicsount.
In Philippines Rolex can offer fixed less 10%. in HK it is 5% max.
n Indonesia may be no discount for watches. In Autralia is less 15% so on.
The Submariner 116610Ln is HKD$68,000. where as in HK i Get HKD$57,130. The differnece is HKD$10868.
That is sigificant!!

Hi Hk Snob,

Would you know the price of this watch in Hk now. And whether any discount. Is the best price still HKD80,800 that you mentioned in Feb?

Hourglass Sydney store quote retail price of AUD12,270. I asked how much can discount but they won't say over the phone. So wondering where is cheaper to buy.
Thanks.
