So i was right.  Nobody likes AP.

Rolex rules!

muayhahahahahaha

It is true. When your 144 year old brand and tradition get pigeonholed into one single look and model, you are gonna have problems. They had written themselves into a corner and they can't get out of it.

The other Trinity independent, Patek Philippe, is trying very hard to avoid that.  The massive demand for the Nautilus and subsequently the Aquanaut isn't helping.

Rolex had successfully steered clear of that by iconoclasting several sport models as individual titans in their own right. They also have the advantage of a massive vintage collector community to keep the heritage and legends alive.

For older watches, you are right.

Bro, you just pichar your own lobang (now the whole MCF know where you got your stock from). Yes, I spotted these on display at Maxicash Causeway Point. When I walked past, I thought how this watch shop manage to have quite a few S/S Rolex on display, then look at the shop name... ...

OK, not that I look down on people staying around Woodlands, but Causeway Point is just like another Jurong Point, with majority of the shoppers from across the causeway or blue collar worker so to speak (I hope I don't get flame for saying this), so their customer base are some what restricted. If these are on sales in town area (by the same pawn shop), maybe can move faster or at a higher price.

No pichar no lobang lah, , i have never bought a Rolex from a pawnshop before and anyone is free to buy one.

I have seen some Rolexes on display at many of the maxicash, moneymax shops but never asked how much becos mostly newer pieces which i dont fancy much
