    Preferably with a black face. Where would be the best place to shop it, and is it a good time yet to buy?

    Join the Rolexforums.com (very similar to FChat)...there are several grey-market dealers selling Daytonas.

    And, yes, prices has eased off a bit in the past two weeks but you’ll still need to spend close to twenty grand for a stainless Daytona with ceramic bezel and black face...the white-faced ones are even more.

    good luck,

    My jeweler offered me one at retail based on being a loyal customer. (My wife is very tolerant of my car addiction and has been handsomely rewarded over the years. LOL!) I was having some of her jewelry cleaned and he offered to trade in my GMT for $3,000 more than I paid and give me the Daytona (white face) at retail. I'm a financial advisor and there are few investments that double immediately after purchase. Again, it sometimes pays to be a loyal customer and it always pays to be nice to everyone you meet.

    Thanks for the advice guys! I took the recommendations of several to use a dealer that advertises on Chrono24, got a great deal and should have the watch tomorrow.

    DavidSW. I emailed him 8:00a yesterday and got a great price. I wired at 10:00a and got it FedEx today at 10:00a. 24hrs no hassle. Watch is literally brand new. It has a warranty card date of 11/19

    Congrats on securing the Daytona.

    David is a solid and trusted seller. Very well known in watch circles.

    However, I would offer a big heap of caution when doing business with many of the ‘dealers’ on Chrono24.

    What issues have you had on chrono24?

    I have had nothing but good experiences so far, knock on wood. One private purchase and one dealer purchase, and I was very happy with both transactions. I did the private purchase thru their escrow and the dealer purchase in person since they were relatively close to me.

    I've purchased a couple of watches from him. I suspect you still paid over 20k though. Prices are so inflated now.

    It's from a Porsche 911 (996) but I don't know what year. I should look and see if there is a serialized part on it and look it up.
