Put the bong down, sir, and step back.
I was in Zurich, Geneva, London, Paris and Amsterdam a few months back. All sports cases were empty. Mind you this was Beyer's in Zurich, Bucherer in Geneva. Good thing I am happy with my 5 digit serials and care nothing for the 6s.

Don’t have a an office job mate... so can’t just jump to reply at your request... also need to sleep.
You can call it bollocks all you like, but the fact is Rolex makes watches in sufficient quantity... it’s flippers ( just a new word for the new age collector) that have long term relationships with dealers and scoop the cream. These watches don’t get any wrist time.. they simply get past on for a profit.
How many watch adds have you read where the seller is trying to create the impression that it’s a personal item he’s moving on? Watch in rotation... unwanted gift... wants to upgrade etc ...
I’m not trying to be difficult, but if that’s your game on any forum, do you really have fellowship and real interest at heart or just fleecing members? I’m not talking about someone selling a watch at a reasonable price, taking in consideration age/damage or just want a fair profit. I’m talking about hardcore flippers here who
as a whole create shortage and then profit from it.
It all comes down to supply and demand. My view is Rolex underprices their SS models for reasons we don't know and that means they wind up being sold at the 'real' market price to end customers. There is no need to get wound up over this, it's the way an efficient capitalist market clears itself. If it upsets you there are plenty of other brands available at prices less than MSRP. Check out Omega!

grey is not flip, grey is buying extra stock forced on dealers and selling at reduced price. Rolex and Omega are working to prevent this
I wonder how that worked when rolex never allowed ADs to discount stock. If an AD discounted extra stock to a grey dealer then rolex would certainly catch on to the offending ADs by the grey market dealer selling new stuff lower than the minimum retail standard they impose.
Timepiece360 in Dubai and Egypt, they have physical stores and subs advertised at $12k US.. also GMT etc.. a bit more pricey... shown as new arrivals,... no, I did not call them....
Just an example... there are watches out there in selected markets, I’ll send screenshots from their website to someone who knows how to post... Just send me an email address
