Pretty thorough review. I just don't understand why anyone would buy a used Sea Dweller when a new one is $2K less. :think:

It’s the issue of availability, Gary. Rolex scarcity of all steel sport models, including the SD, causes so many people to be willing to pay above MSRP from re-sellers and non-ADs (who cannot sell above MSRP anyway). Do I agree with you? Hell yes! I will not pay above retail and haven’t purchased a Rolex from my AD, since my rhodium OP. I will not play the dole out above MSRP game. However, this does not mean that I won’t buy at MSRP if and when my AD gets in a piece that I have wanted.

Gotcha. Thanks, Richard! :hat:
 
I'd be happy, just to be able to afford, either one!:dunno:
