    Have you any better pictures with better light please.
    No. The pictures are good enough.

    What a strange man. And no, the pictures are not good.

    The chap that asked has 100+ positive feedbacks! The kinda person you want to deal with!

    They he posts a wrist no hassle when asked.


    Aside from attitude he has zero chance of selling on adverts at that’s price. Overpriced for a readily available watch and far to small a target market in Ireland.

    Took some pics in Westfield shopping centre recently so no shortage or waiting list, it’s a tiny ad with very little selection.
    Vostok hasn’t a hope of selling that for profit

    Have you seen a single desirable Rolex at list while there?

    Come on spill the beans
    What happened with Vostok on your listing

    Nothing. I assume he saw my thread on here “McManus is back” then started that!

    Strange chap.

    wildly, you would probably pay WF £11k for a stickered new one and that would be top of the market.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,538 ✭✭✭btkm8unsl0w5r4


    God loves a trier by 14k is miles out, knowing adverts mind you somebody will offer 5k and a chipvan and then you finally meet somewhere in the middle at around the right price.


  • Registered Users Posts: 669 ✭✭✭A+-Guru


    you are correct, we all know how adverts works with low ballers, you are around long enough to know this, this is why I put a guide asking price for 14,450 to deter the low-ballers, realistically I would be looking for around the 12 mark which is a average price considering the market for one in my condition.

    Hey man good to come on and defend the price. I understand where you are coming from. 12k is not absurd for a hulk in that condition. I assume you have it on chromo 24 too. Adverts is a limited market, and even though I have 100 transactions on adverts I would balk at that sort of a buy on the platform. Good luck with the sale, thats a nice piece.

    BTW Phase change coolers, PC tech, expensive watches....if your into cars we should marry :)

    have a nice day

    He is banned from this forum. Probably still reads the comments here. Steer clear!


  • Registered Users Posts: 669 ✭✭✭A+-Guru


    I hear a 3rd line assembly line is coming to Rolex :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 669 ✭✭✭A+-Guru


    Tbh I only put it up to test the waters if there is interest in it, I payed very near to 12k for it myself in December so I am not out to try do a flipping for profit over RRP. I do like it and really I am not pushed to sell it either.

    Yes I used to be big into cars, I had a Mitsubishi EVO 5 for nearly 10 years, rebuilt and pushing over 400hp :D

    I've had my day down for a GMT Pepsi, second on the list. The first lad got his this summer and the AD said they were hoping for another in Q1 2019, fingers crossed.

    i dont see the batman appeal, id just buy a regular 116710 and pocket the difference,

    Hulk v a regular sub is more of a departure

    Watchfinder price is not the greatest measure. A better measure is what are watchfinder paying for the watch from the private seller.

    I would assume around 8.5-9k is fair for private sale. A bargain compared to watchfinder price. Just a smidge above retail.
