Thread all abt ROLEX - Part 2

[Plikhz]

haha, I just found that I got a bit tired of the “games” and secondly, it cost an arm and a leg just to get an allocation of Nautilus. so I ask myself, “do I really wish to take the plunge”?

But a Comp for an aquanaut then a grand comp (if entry level) for a nautilus seems fine. Unless u mean maybe after 5167a, possible to get another aquanaut without additional purchase, then sounds better

 

[Plikhz]

Yup and nope didnt pry haha

it’s just interesting that they announce this and don’t wanna give any context. But let’s see

 

[Plikhz]

THG is the longest. Have history with Cortina too

How’s your experience with them comparatively?

Thg ask you buy crap. Then wait.

Cortina is ask you what you wanna buy then see can get the piece you want. If you agree. You get it 1 shot, all the pieces together. The bundle criteria might be higher but it's a guaranteed. That's when I still buy from them in 2021. Now not sure if they still practice that.

Actually true, sometimes ppl use the word grail loosely, but if there’s an ultimate grail, also good to stay as aspirational piece otherwise once attained also dunno where to go next

Ya from a business standpoint, even if got more Rolex sports watches to sell, doesn’t make sense to lelong the sports watches at the expense of bundling which they have been doing all along. Not heard about this when I visited my AD recently so quite curious

I have a threshold or ceiling on how much I will spend on a watch.
So far haven't break it and I don't intend to. Lol.

Ya exactly. If can use it to sell other stuff. Why not. Maybe criteria easier but no way they're going to just let go like that.
The ad have a chokehold of the watch market. Can squeeze every last bit, why not.

Wow one shot, that’s good, at least don’t need to wait or get hoodwinked

Waiting for the day Rolex also move to boutique only. AD honggan.

That's my experience. Not sure now got chance. They pissed me off so I told them to fk off.

Don't think rolex will. Too much work. Throw to ad handle better. All the furniture, all the display case etc have to follow rolex standards and only can use their supplier (another round of revenue). All the Rolex freebies, are purchased by the ad to gift. Ad don't get them free (another stream of revenue).

The only rolex owned boutique is at Geneva. 1 and only. And also nothing to sell to tourist.

Lol. Not enough for Grey Patek now.
