Should I wait for a sub or just swing a preowned royal oak within the next year? I want the royal oak eventually so might as well just get that by waiting 1-2 more years. Thoughts?

Always wait for what you want - don’t settle! However in this climate you can’t go wrong with a SS Rolex like a Submariner, you could always sell it and barely lose any money on it. This assumes you aren’t sentimental.

Are you referring to a new sub vs preowned? Even then, a new sub and a preowned AP are really in two completely different price points...

New sub! Pre owned APs will be roughly 1.5-1.7x the new sub price, hence the wait time. I do absolute love the sub but the current waitlist means I can’t expect to get one any time soon

In that case i would wait due to the waitlist timing, as youll likely end up getting either of them at a similar time. I may be biased though, really love the AP

Honestly I like the AP more then SS

APRO

All depends on what you like. Each of these watches is a classic and will be timeless. Personally I prefer the Sub as it is more understated and useful to me. The Oyster bracelet is one of the best and most comfortable that I have worn.

Wait for the Royal Oak.

Checked out an Omega Seamaster PO (215.30.44.21.03.001) today at an AD - would be my first nice watch and purchase through the AD. Should I expect any ability to negotiate price? Any other watches I should consider instead? This group has been amazing with regards to information and the pinned posts invaluable, but wanted to bring it to the experts directly.
