My sons and I have just had a look at a Hulk in the Rolex store at LeMans - price for the Hulk (sadly for my son, it was already sold) was 8,350 euros - works out at about £7,300

A no-date Sub was 6,850 euro - about £5,990

These prices are a nice round 10% above UK rrp- are we about to see a price rise, or is the LeMans AD making some extra margin?

It was my first time ever seeing the green sub in the flesh, and in Rolex’s defence, it was bloomin’ good looking - even if my no date is still a handsome piece...

You were lucky to find a Hulk anywhere, even a just-sold one, or even any s/s sports watch.

I assume they had a larger-than-normal stock to interest people at the LM24 - they had a full suite of subs, a SD50 and deepsea, as well as all the Daytonas and GMTs one could ask for. Otherwise I imagine their stock would be limited to Day Dates and Milgausses

Ah, must be why ADs everywhere else have no stock lol.
