New ceramic panerai and Rolex Milgaus

[bigsi]

Hi all, considering the above watches, does anyone know what price I should pay for the new Ceramic Black Seal or Black faced Milgaus, and where I might source them from? Presume there may be a wait list for the rolex.....anyone had advice from the dealers as to how long the wait?

many thanks

The retail for the Radiomir Black Seal Ceramic is £3450. When I bought my PAM177, I went to the Wempe store on Bond St. They probably won't have on in stock but they have the international network to source one if you decide it is the piece for you.

Re the Panerai, if they can't source one at one of their other branches then you are looking at a 6-12 week wait from Panerai.

I think a 6-12 week wait this time of year for any Panerai is highly unlikely. Most AD's have had there allocation and there fore no more allocation numbers until April 08. Even when the AD's know what models they will receive they do not know when they will arrive.
Im after a 161 and i cannot even put down a deposit as im being told that they just ain't got a clue as and when.

Don't hold your breath for the 292 ceramic, as i believe the first year run of 1000 are sold out.

When i contacted watches of switzerland in May, looking for a 176 (a titainum base, so not really exotic), i was told that it would be April 08 at the earliest, providing noone else had pre ordered & paid a deposit (which they had).

The 292 does look a stunner.
