I'm unwilling to take the risk by buying from anyone other than an AD. Look at what the grey market sellers are asking for them here. That's a good target. If you insist on getting from an AD, you'll likely have to pay more. Though all the new grey market watches come from an AD, they're just being moved through a 3rd party reseller. TT Daytona is a hard to move watch. Even without a previous purchase you should be able to get 15 percent. I wouldn't expect 20 percent but also wouldn't settle for 10 percent.
Every AD is different on how they negotiate. Where I live there's the Rolex Store and another place they own that carries more than just Rolexes, they don't discount unless you've bought there and then not much.
But there is an AD in another part of town, less ritzy, but an AD none the less. When I was in there he pulled out the calculator and was giving me discounts like I'd expect in the Caribbean. Be friendly, talkative, and if you are decently knowledgeable about Rolex, model numbers of the ones you like, movement numbers, seem knowledgeable but not a know it all I think your chances of getting a discount are decent.
It may not be a decent discount, but it will be a discount. Two tone watches, specially like the Daytona are soft. Try to make a tax free transaction too.
They are soft. We talked watches a lot, I let him know I was waiting on a payout from a merger in a couple of months, but I was definitely getting a watch.
When the time came, I was debating between a Speedmaster and a SubC. He jokingly said why not both. I half jokingly gave him a price for both, knowing he probably couldn't do it.
He got closer than I thought, but then I said, well how much for just the SubC. We haggled a bit and I got a very respectable discount off the SubC. They sized it for me, ran my credit card, and I've never looked back. I still want that Speedmaster though. The point is not to offer to buy two watches, but to develop a relationship with the dealer, even on your first buy. I never got any discount from an AD. Not that I buy much from them anyway, but I once offered to fork over a cashier's check of just a couple thousand below the asking price on a and they called the owner of the entire chain and he said no.
I'm glad he said No because I ended up buying the watch for for fifteen thousand less than my offer, just a couple months later from a non AD, BNIB, all paperwork, unworn, with a better dial too, a Jubilee ice blue diamond.

Good luck! If you are dead set on purchasing the watch through an AD determine how much you want to spend based on the info you gather on The Forum then find an AD that'll get you the deal. Take as much emotion out of the transaction as possible. That said you should reconsider a trusted seller here. Good luck,. The Daytona is premium model for ADs.

It's worth giving them a call and stopping by to chat in person. The condition of the case, dial, hands, and so on is typically not up for debate. Most mechanical watches need to go through service every years though modern lubricants and non-metallic materials are extending service intervals. Unfortunately, many watches do not receive regular service. Any service records are going to add assurance, but likely also raise the price.
If there are no service records, then ask the seller for the service history. If a service was done properly, the movement would have been disassembled to some degree, cleaned, rebuilt, and lubricated, and there should be a receipt from the service center detailing the work performed. If all else fails, get images of the movement, and show them to a trusted watchmaker for their evaluation, or get a watch with a satisfaction guarantee period and have it looked over.
Many pre-owned Rolex dealers will offer you a warranty.
