Saw one last night at the Rolex Boutique store (display window) South Coast Plaza (Orange County, CA). I know that some AD's claim limited availability but there is one to be had assuming it is still there and you are willing to put up with the bubble-gum snapping teeny boppers who work behind the counter.

"it is still there and you are willing to put up with the bubble-gum snapping teeny boppers who work behind the counter."

and their no discount policy on SS sport models like this one.... It is still sitting there because they wont discount it like some other local dealers in the area.

Great place to look, but not so great place to purchase.

Correct - no discount whatsoever. On top of that they quote complete rip-off prices for trade-ins. Personally, I would never buy a watch from that place. I agree that it is an excellent "test drive" facility due to the wide selection of models that they have available at any given time. Ditto the similar stores in Vegas who typically have no interest or desire in negotiating price.

It is hit / miss with that one ... When I got mine from my AD, they had 2 ... then they haven't had any for a while ...

ArcticMoose · 29 October 2011, 07:14 AM

Limited availability?

Seems to me there is one sitting in every shop window.

In the Netherlands (and the rest of North Europe) you can get them at almost every AD...

Best picture of that LV I have seen yet...

When I was looking for mine I called every listed AD in Scotland and only one had in stock! Discount here is also not common as many stated to me as its an ss model.

Art 1 · 29 October 2011, 09:22 AM

Wouldn't Rolex have an issue with IP/copyright with this calendar? -- making profits from their trademarks..

I see them...
I think the market for these is going to be limited...

nch209 · 29 October 2011, 12:02 PM

They are in the case of the local AD in nova. Cool watch- but not limited IMO. Is there any current Rolex that's limited???????? ;-)

There are no limited edition models but I would imagine the very expensive, diamond-encrusted watches would not be made in large numbers and so can be described as being in limited production.

joleel7 · 29 October 2011, 01:09 PM

It is available in my AD here in Toronto but no discount for sure..

Hodog16 · 29 October 2011, 01:44 PM

Have yet to see one in person and that's probably a good thing for my wallet. Can't buy something the AD's don't have

.

tattooedfagin · 29 October 2011, 05:52 PM

no problem here in the UK

travisb · 29 October 2011, 07:08 PM

Just hard to find a good discount these days. Glad I got mine when I did.

Available right here, with a discount, you could have it by tomorrow.
