promotersf Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 wow, i'm stoked...ken's been prompt at emailing me since i made contact last week and he just shot me an email announcing his arrival to RWG. kick ass eddie's my guy, but i've always wanted a couple that ken can now supply. ken also advised that here will be a swiss 7753 model coming out for the 187, just don't know when.

Chronus Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 The reason your dealers can't get the 187 and other 'exclusive' models.......is that the Japanese market has been swallowing up product from the factories......the 187 for instance is now becoming available to our dealers.....( well me for a start.....unfortunately most of my stock will go to private buyers in the UK.. ).......why?....saturation in the Japanese market......! I'm a private buyer in the UK who's interested in a reasonably priced PAM187 with ETA 7753 movement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dadog13 Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 bestswiss also manages to sell their submariners for 1000US$, that doesnt mean nothin! why i meant to say it is that in their market...japan...they manage to sell reps even with that high prices... when they will offer watches to us it is defintely sure that they cannot offer them at that prices...cause nobody will buy them as we have a lot of excellent dealers with great prices... let's wait and see their offers...

Chronus Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 My guess is their prices stay the same, but early adopters can get things first as this is where it'll pop up. I hope they prove me wrong and we get cheap prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they prove me wrong and we get cheap prices. well from all the possible models they have only the 187 that our dealer don't have right now (but soon will have)....and paying so much money for a rep...it ain't worth! after all.....RWG is a big market...and if they lower they profit margin they still will have some + money....so i can expect some better prices than those for the japanese market!

slay Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 theres always idiots who will think the more they pay, the better they get, so theres actualy a chance they make good money with their over priced CN stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
