FWIW rolex had a fairly substantial price increase about a month ago, i looked at some subs wed and was told they had gone up 10% IIRC, the sub i was looking t was SS black and $2900, 99% shape a good deal imho, rolex watches go up not down lol.
honestly they are getting so high i would be hesitant about buying a new one now, my GMT11 has gone up in retail price about $2K in the last 5 yrs, almost double what i paid for it ($3K), if nothing else they are good investments.
also have a pan GMT ithas gone up some also since '98 when i got it, great watch though, my wife wears it now mostly which is strange a women w/a big watch like that lol. i got it before eraser came out and everyone had to have one, when i got it no one knew what pan was, my bud got it while overseas in the army, was gonna lose it in a pawn shop, i got it outta pawn (about $300) and gave him $300, not a bad deal if i say so. and he didnt come ou too bad he thought he only paid about $1K for it so no biggie guess.
my dad wore a omega seamaster for many yrs, still have his an early '70s model, have always liked the things, there is nothing wrong with omega at all imho. his has never been servicd, probbly should though but it still runs fine, and i never wear it anymore. ruggd watch though.
