Found a Rolex Batman and a GMT-II ($18K) and a Starbucks submariner ($16K) at a Certified Private Dealer. A few q.s because these would be my first luxury watches.
1. Are these good prices?
2. Are certified private dealers legit?
3. Which one would you recommend for a first luxury watch? The engineering of the GMT 2 appeals to me, but the Starbucks looks more elegant and classy.

Thank you.

You’re about 2k high on both of these.

Go join MODA on Facebook, look at the highly active sellers that sell 10 watches a day. New Starbucks are up there for 13.5 -14.

Same deal with Batmans. PM me for more help.

Way high. There’s a couple of Batman’s on Moda for under $14k

Walk into a Rolex dealer - ask for the watch you want.

When they inevitably tell you it will be x amount of time ask what they have available to purchase today.

They will look you up and see you are a Partner and probably offer you something like a Datejust. Then you can build the relationship from there. I only by from an AD and this is how I purchased my first Rolex.

Definitely hasn’t been my experience. I guess MD doesn’t carry the same weight as partner 😭

Thank you all. What is MODA? I found several Facebook groups with that name? Is it the one with the largest number of members (~230k members?)

Thanks!

Alright this bowl has convinced me I need to buy a Rolex. Where do I begin? I know my brother got a Batman GMT after about a year at a jeweler he never purchased from a few years ago, but was he just lucky?
