Batman, Daytona and Hulk's latest Price Update
Watch price is still unreasonable high in HK.
One episode, one Australian guy asked me price of Daytona Ceramic
how much on Whatsapp, I told him that White is $160,000 , and he immediate
replied me saying that What the FXXX, what kind of HK price is! You are a Criminal…
well, I did not reply anymore…no choice I had to Block him on whatsapp!
He should be simply go to on line check “Rolex Daytona
Ceramic Watch price “Then he will not call everyone in HK selling Daytona “Criminal”!
Back to Watch price.
Daytona Ceramic 165500LN SRP $95,000, market price selling
$160,000-165,000 for white
Submariner 116610LV SRP $68,100 , now $92,000 just ran over
the 90,000 marching to 100,000!
GMT Master Blue Black 116710BLNR SRP $67,300 now gray dealer
is selling $83,000
I just delivered three pieces of Batman at $78,000 each last
week in Philippines.
Someone asks, what is next, I cannot tell, may be it will
stay on this price for a while waiting for next Rolex new watch release at
BaselWorld.
Scenario:
- What of Hulk is Discontinued, then I am sure Hulk will be going to $100,000 price!
- What if Hulk is still in production, the people will likely keep waiting for the new Submariner, then Price of Hulk will go down little bit, but never will go down to $84,000 or below.
- What is Submariner 116610LN is discontinued by replacing of 126610LN, on then the Submariner price will go high like Buri Khalifa! So it may be wise to by one now when it is still not going over crazy!
What if Price of Daytona, well I am
sure it will keep go up instead of going down.
So if you don’t want to go into
Hamster Wheel, I sill suggest stay calm and get one when price is considered OK
for you.
As I say, Rolex is Gold, Gold is
not Rolex
Now you cannot get Daytona because
Daytona is not Daytona It is Crazona

Some of the top Watch Smith in Hong Kong:- Eternity Watch Repair Victor Ku
I have learnt on how to repair watches when I was young and
I know you got to have PASSION if you want to be successful in this career.
There is not short cut, likewise, watch repair is not easy. We have to
go through all steps, part removal, cleaning, drying, reassembly in, oiling,
time checking... before passing the watch to hands of your client.
This is one guy who is young and he is an orderly man, he cares
about details and he loves his Watch repair career.
He works at his confined small shop with door to ensure the
work environment is clean.
Of course that could not be Class 10 of Semiconductor
manufacturing standard, might be class 10000.
That is much better than I could expect.
On whatever watches he repair, Victor gives one year
Warranty.
His previous exposure was from Rolex, so he is an expert in
Rolex.
Address :
Cke Shopping Mall, right beside Chung King Mansion, Tsim Sha Tsui.
Eternity is situated on second
floor going straight at Left to C7 area.

Rolex AD in Venetian Hotel, Macao
This is one of the Rolex AD in the centre of Venetian Hotel inside the Casino.
There was no Batman, No Submariner Date, Sub no date, no Stainless steel Daytona, no Hulk, no Green pointer...
They have only the gold watch, such as Gold Daytona, a white gold submariner and some two tone Daytona.
Don't expect to have Single Red 126600 too as there are precious species there!
This shop is under Unique Hong Kong. The sales Supervisor is very knowledgeable on Watches!
It was fun to talk to him next time if you get a big fortune at the casino, come to take a Rolex Home.

Tour to Macao Watch Shops
Macao is likely one of the best place for a weekend staycation for Hong Kong People.
Party it is near, if you take Hydrofoil it takes only 1 hour from Sheung Wan to Macao.
There are many nice hotel with very reasonable price there.
I went there last Friday and Saturday staying there one night at Venetian Hotel (one night HK$2,600, week day will be much cheaper) I won some money at the Casino.
I went out to the prewned shops behind Lisboa Hotel for wach shopping
They have both New and old watches for you to choose
MOP price is as Same as HKD there. You can pay by Hong Kong dollar there.
One thing for sure is very very Expensive, So I did not buy anything at all.
Look at this Batman Ref 116710LNR, they are asking HK$138,000 (USD$17,692)!
Will you!?

Rolex Shopping in Shinjuku and Nakano
Just at main Road of Kabukicho, Shinjuku, nothing except Channel Bag, there is not so many Rolex.
This has a lot of Rolex and PP, you should visit there at Shinjuku
The Mecca of Rolex, Nakano Broadway at the Nakano station
JackRoad has the most of Watches especially Rolex
TWC
I had spent 8 Days in Shinjuku from 30 Dec 2017 to 6 Jan 2018 for both leisure tour and Rolex Shopping!
There my Conclusion is
Price after tax free is still slightly more expensive than Hong Kong on that day 3 Jan 2018.
There is not much Sport Watches that you want to get from Official AD,
Don't expect you can buy these: Submariner Date 116610LN, GMT Batman 116710BLNR, Daytona 116500 white or black!
I have not seen one in three official AD in Shinjuku.
So how about Vintage Rolex
Only one 1665 which has a price of HK$120,000 no paper. Still that is not able to seduce me for Buying because I have a Excellent one with paper.
Well, There is two watch shop you must Go at Nakano (the Mecca of Rolex) : Jackroad and TWC!
However on the day I visited only JackRoad opened, TWC still on new year vacation.
TWC (The Watch Company)
They have all Tudor, Hamilton, Hublot, many Omega and Rolex
Price of Tudor is Likely very good in Japan.
Next time when you visit Tokyo, Don't miss TWC.
Visit their Web Site to find out more before you go
https://www.thewatchcompany.co.jp/en/
Price can be good in Japan depends on USD/Yen Exchange Rate.
Keep good timing to buy and you may get good deal.

Gordon Gekko is wearing a Cartier Santos Galbee Auto 18 KT gold watch
Wall Street 1987.
A young and impatient stockbroker is willing to do anything to get to the top, by insider trading on information taken through a ruthless and greedy corporate raider who takes the youth under his wing. A nice story for people to learn today.
The corporate raider Gordon Gekko wears Cartier Santos Galbee Automatic watch in 18 KT solid gold.
I like Michael Douglas movie including this and Fatal attraction! Of course I like his father Kurt Douglas in The Spartacus 萬夫莫敵!
This SANTOS watch design is the trend starter for many watch makers to follow by adding real Philipps screws on the bezel and bracelet even today name it...
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak who should be the first one to put screw on bezel and I think this Cartier Santos is the same designer as AP Royal Oak.
I was not able to buy the solid gold version but I bought the stainless version
As we dare not ask about price of a solid gold Cartier by that time 1985 when I worked as a young sales engineer at Jebsen’s & Co. With monthly income of HK$5,500. The stainless steel version was sold to me in Geneve Watch Company at HK$4,500.
Now I had a chance to buy back what I could not afford 30 years ago.
Share with you this great Creation from Cartier.
Note this nasty stuff weighs 143 grams.
It comes with Size 29mmx40mm as the largest by that time.
But that is even heavier than a Rolex Day Date Ref 1803 of a bigger size of watch.
Amazingly it is super comfortable to wear and it looks slim on your wrist!
