Aruba, Curacao, Bonaire where do I buy?
Hello,
Going on a cruise in 2 weeks wondering what to expect from these locations? Anyone have experience buying rolexes please chime in. Also, if anyone went recently, did they have a full selection? How are their discounts? Thanks. |

Enjoy your cruise. My 2 cents (travelled extensively throughout all islands for business):
- MOST IMPORTANT: do your homework. Know list prices and both 'ok' and 'great' discounts - There is no particular island or time of day better or worse - If you find a great deal (final number, forget percentages as sometimes they rise the base price so discount looks amazing), go for it. Do not wait for 'the next island' Oh, and do share pics!!!!! |

Thanks Gerardo, good point about finding the deal not just percent off
Anyone else that has bought from there? What kind of discounts or prices have you negotiated? |

I was in Aruba and Curacao two weeks ago. I'd say out of those choices, Aruba would be the place. As previously mentioned, know what you'd consider a "good deal" going in; I wouldn't expect a whole lot more than 10% (if even that).
You can get a much better deal here on TRF. I was shopping for something a little different on my trip. I have been wanting a Bremont, which I found for a good price in Aruba. |

Call for prices in advance so you know your starting points in each location
