I'm a bit shocked to see the white gold DD with the Blue Roman dial in the window. Day-Dates have been so hot recently.

Not impressed, but better than nothing.. Remember seeing a similar photo from Monaco 5-6 years ago, several SS models availble. Tough times…

To those unaware of the shenanigans in the luxury watch market, it must look like Rolex is just selling ladies watches now.

I was just about to point that out, there is good news and bad news with that picture.

Good News: There are a lot more watches in that display then most ADs world-wide right now.

Bad News: They are all ladies Datejusts.

Easiest way to see where the hands are set. If it’s to 10:10 and 37 seconds then it’s a demo model.

Thank you for sharing! The south of France sounds lovely right now! That’s the most Rolex I’ve seen in a display window in many years

Are those Day dates in the window available for purchase? Wondering if they still offer any discount for cash these days ..

All the watches were for sale. I tried a few and will return this week to maybe pick one up. They wouldn’t let me take photos in the store, which is very unlike the US ADs who don’t seem to care.

Thanks! Any chance if you could ask if they offer any cash discount for that 40mm YG if you ever get back there?

France VAT is 20% I believe and is included in the price .. Someone living outside the EU will get instant discount based on VAT refund alone ..

Yes, I will happily go back and ask. I’m here for another 12 days. Could you outline the one you mean and send me a photo so that I know the piece you’re referring to?

Awesome! Thanks.

It's the Yellow gold Day Date 40 with roman dial that you photographed among other Day dates. I have marked it in the image. Hopefully it's visible.

Would be interesting to know if they provide any cash discount since it's sitting in the window. Also, does it have French VAT included in the price that can be deducted.
