Rolex

in my recent travels, I was informed even certain Datejust models are equally in demand!

This is becoming crazy and untenable. Eventually the ADs will close if they cannot sell watches. Might as well buy from the gray market directly which I am sure is Rolex CH's ultimate aim!

Went to a Rolex dealer in Mississippi today...

but all they could give me was a book. No steel sport models except for a Milgauss GV and an Explorer I. Eerie. ...

Two of the best models in the Rolex stable! Some things I cannot understand. [nt]

Thanks. I’m wearing my “least loved Rolex” now. Maybe I’ll break out my 1016 tomorrow to complete the double.

What's not to love? [nt]

I don’t know but apparently we’re in the minority. [nt]

Don't worry. We know, we love. That's the most important. [nt]

Very true! [nt]

Enjoy at the fullest. As I do with these modern and so unconventional Rolex they are. [nt]

Thanks! [nt]

Did they at least autograph it for you? [nt]

Wouldn’t be the aim direct online? [nt]

Which are great watches! [nt]

Surprised there was an explorer 1

By: jml_watches : July 16th, 2019-23:42

A few weeks back an AD near me had both an Airking & an Explorer 1 , both were gone in a few days. Cheers JML

I hope the book was a gift...;-) [nt]

surprised they had an Explorer I left in stock

the next hot beanie baby Rolex is the steel datejust 2 ... If only cellinis could get just 10% of this bubble

I'm an anti Rolex snob but the Milgauss is one watch I'd love to own. [nt]
