Anyone know what price a yellow gold Yacht Master II is in Dubai duty free, I'll be in transit in about 3 weeks time.

Just to copy in what I put in the Middle East thread for those interested:

Just went and asked at the Rolex Dealer in the mall, with discount it shouldn't work out too much different from duty free...

The discounted price they can offer is 148,000 dhs for the yellow gold.
At today's exchange rate 148k = £26,374.

Slight issue is no yellow gold ones in stock anywhere in Dubai as the last one was purchased yesterday, that said they say they always ensure at least one in stock across their stores, so expect delivery in the next couple of days.

White gold is in stock at 163700 dhs after discount.

To be honest, when you are in there with the money you should be able to get a little more knocked off I think - they did with me when I said I might be look to get mine in duty free.
Just had a call from my other half who is in Dubai duty free as we speak and it would appear that if buying in Dubai it's cheaper to stop over and take a trip to the Mall.
