Rolex Daytona will continue on the rise?

What is in the hype now?

In 2012-2018 the hype was GMT Master no matter the green pointer 116710LN, the Batman 116710BLNR, the Vintage 1675, Pepsi 126710BLRO and the latest Batgirl 126710BLNR are the hot topics in social media.

In 2018-2020 was SeaDweller 126600 Single Red, we started selling at $98000 up to $114,000.

September 2020, Rolex launched the colour OP (Oyster Perpetual) with 31, 36, 41mm.

Initially there were some stock but no soon later there was no more.

Ref 126000 Tiffany Blue $92,000

Ref 126000 Green $89,000

Ref 126000 Orange $82,000 

Latest price of Rolex at dealers, not Boutique as there is no way for getting a Rolex Model at SRP nowadays without long waiting. 

GMT Master II Pepsi 126710BLRO $150,000

GMT Master II Batgirl 12671lBLNR $142,000

Submariner
126610LN Black $100,000

126610LV Starbucks $148,000

116610LV Hulk (discon.) $142,000

Daytona

However, ever since 2009 up to now, people never stop talking on Daytona. Meaning Daytona s the perpetual talking point. 

Daytona Green gold 116508 was $356000 in 2020 but now $490,000

Daytona ICE blue platinum 116505

$720,000

Ref 116519 Grey was $226,000 in 2019 and now $300,000

Ref 116500 Daytona White dial was $190,000 in 2019

Now new one is $230,000

People asks if one day Daytona steel 116500LN would reach price tag of  $320,000?
I think possible. As whatever price is under Rolex’s hand, if he reduce production 20%, price would be up 30%! Simple. Just if they want to do it or not?

Last but not least, what is best to buy now?

Most of the people had switches focus on Daytona rather than GMT Master or Submariner.

Something that you like and not losing value over time… Daytona 116500LN White or 116508 Daytona Green dial if you like the look which is not my cup of tea.

  1. Nice to see you post again bossman.

    The Daytona Hype certainly must also have something to do with it still being one of the few collections with 116 denoting old(er) movement than 126. Hence an upgrade is due ?

  2. hi
    126500 is yet to be launched, latest and current one is still the in house Rolex movement 4130 after using Zenith El Primero modified after year 2001, so meaning yet no new movement made since then.

  3. Rolex green gold they say it will discontinue (7 april 2021 watches and wonders) Prices are increasing now. (well done John Mayer).

    There are so many Rolex dealers in HK but all popular models are also hard to get over there?

    Keep up the good writing!
