  • Walked past my local Ramsdens (pawn shop) the other day. They usually have a decent selection of watches in with maybe a Rolex sub being top priced.

    They currently have a PP Nautilus, a Rolex Daytona and a GMT Master II in the window. Make of that what you will.

    We’ve got a very good customer with a platinum Rolex, which is probably worth about £50,000 or £60,000,” said Peter Kenyon, the company’s chief executive. “He’s a builder and when his cash flow is short he gives us the Rolex, borrows between £10,000 and £20,000 . . . pays interest at 2 per cent a month, then pays us back when his cash flow improves.

  • Quite possibly. The Daytona was priced at just short of 50k. It looked like it was available to buy but I've never been in there to ask about anything in the window.
