Any ideas of where and indeed "IF" any deals can be had on a new 2010 sub date?

Do you mean a new, new Sub date... i.e one of the new style ones that has just been announced or do you mean a brand new 'old' style one that's just been discontinued....?

[craig7l]

a new new sub date ... i think we may have just answered the question :-(

hehehehe

I doubt you'd get much of a deal on a new, new one as possibly demand will be high (or not) in which case you may get a deal.
But you'll have to wait until they come into dealers for that to happen, and I don't think that'll be for quite a while yet. You can pre-order now at an AD, but you'll be lucky to get a deal on a pre-order.

OOOOHHHHHH, off down there in a few weeks. Do you have a link/address? What other brands do they sell?

[craig7l]

2 options for me then..
Jump on plane air Oman and ask taxi driver where the diamond watch shop is
or
meet tuffers ( seems a trustworthy guy) in a service station with £5k cash and arrange to meet in a week for him to give me my watch
heheh

I don't think neither will get you a 'new' new Sub anyway, as they arn't actually in dealers yet and are only available as a pre-order

[koolchris99]

'diamond watch shop' is in Quram.. There is only one shopping district.

They sell all kinds of special rolex's and one offs. actual price is about 45% of the price shown on the tag, just need to haggle a bit..

good luck on your trip. its about 36 deg today and fking hot.

I brought this there. its 24k solid gold tag with the royal crest on the back..
weighs 465g .

bling blinger. gonna trade it with the old man for his 24k pres.

My friendly AD tells me that they expect the new ceramic model in from September.

[LukeBird]

OP do you want a stainless Sub or one of the gold/WG/TT ones?
The new versions of the latter are already available in ADs. The Stainless versions won't be available until the end of the year (ish) AD dependent. Chances of getting one of those at discount are almost nil unless you're a serious buyer at an AD already.

Anyone know the list price of the new Sub with the ceramic bezel? Has it been announced yet?
James.

[LukeBird]

If you mean the Stainless Steel one, I don't think there are any official price-lists yet.
Most forum rumours reckon around £4250. List for the 16610LV presently is £4070.

Yeah, I was referring to the stainless steel version, thanks.
Cheers, James.

Rumours of Summer delivery, which might make sense seeing as supply of 16610 (current model)has all but dried up. Normally new models make their way onto the UK market around November time. I expect these to trade about 10-15% over list initially. Just my 2 cents....
