Availability in Bahamas?

Heading down to Atlantis this week. I assume the availability here is as bad as sverywhere else in the world? Any shops I should visit just in case? Thanks!

I doubt you’ll find anything but good luck! You never know until you try.

You would think some little corner of the world recovering from the pandemic might just have a recent restock of some Rolex watches?! You may be in luck!

I stopped in Jai’s in Turks and Caicos on Wednesday and all they had were 4 or 5 pieces, all PM and 36mm or smaller.

They did have the new Tudor BB58 silver in then case though and it was stunning

If you want to see Rolex watches, spend time at the pool, the beach, the restaurants and bars, the golf courses, etc. And look at the wrists of the other tourists.

But regardless of where you are in the world these days, a Rolex boutique or AD is NOT the place to go if you want to see Rolex watches.

I would try „John Bull“ in Nassau.

It’s sad but true

Three years ago I was at Atlantis and was asked several times what I wanted to try on.

John Bull might have something but who knows

I was there 2 weeks ago, the display cases are empty. Same story as the previous 3 years in a row...

it’s all a matter of timing, John Bull is where i walked in for the first time to take a look in Jan 2020, walked out with a sub that was in the safe.

If it’s anything like the Rolex boutique in Terminal 5 Heathrow this morning, prepare yourself for empty display cases and ladies watches in various configurations. There was one yachtmaster ii and a 37mm chocolate YM... I hope you have better luck :)
