You're on a waitlist anyway.

Didn't ask but I am pretty sure that they are not for sale.

Must be! [nt]

New Rolex policy...

I heard that given feedback from frustrated potential customers, I understand Rolex is supplying a set of official fully working pieces not for sale but for demonstration. Who knows if they are sellable longer term but I think it's a smart idea! Peter

i don't know what to say.

That's uptown, as you move towards the sea the lanscape changes dramatically. Sad and even scary!

The mystery

 
 By: Weems@8 : November 10th, 2020-05:42
If they want to sell? Can they lose the good relation with Rolex? If somebody offer much above the displayed price, than it would be a dilemma for them maybe. Selling is a huge risk, so behind the window is a life of hurt. Regret not chosen for more easy ... 

No prices displayed

At least the Rolexes in my local AD have price information.

The grey market dealer

 
 By: Weems@8 : November 10th, 2020-07:10
The grey market trader which i bought my Seamaster, have put price labels at their in stock Rolex watches. When i was 11 month ago at that store, i looked which prices their watches be priced. A Hulk came E 14500 pre owned. My eyes where attacked to Hulks... 

Yep,

 
 By: Mary Anny : November 10th, 2020-07:12
No prices!

I don't think so,

 
 By: Mary Anny : November 10th, 2020-07:07
Each one tells a different time!

Did you try to buy one? [nt]

 
 By: amanico : November 10th, 2020-07:20

Yessss,

 
 By: Mary Anny : November 10th, 2020-07:40
But they did not accept my red coral and pearl jewelry!

LOL! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : November 10th, 2020-08:14

I'm perfectly ok* with the 79030 and 5513 of mine.

*Love that last Submariner 🤫

Indeed! [nt]

I think

Those may be watches which have been put on display for being collected by customers who have been on the waiting list. Another option really is that the watches are non working models. But if the watches really are for sale for anyone who wants to buy on... 

LOL, seen the same in 3 different locations now. Display models to lure potential buyers until you realize that they are not for sale and try to sell you what they do have...

Just more wait lists forming, seems a bit sad really. Guess that is the state of affairs lately with Rolex 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️
