Where to buy Rolex in Dubai?
Hello everybody!
I live in Paris and I am going to Dubai in a few weeks. I would like to buy a Rolex there but in the Rolex website I cannot see the list of Rolex boutiques and retailers in Dubai, only those in France. Could somebody provide me with a list of retailers? I'd never been in Dubai so I would like to have several options. Thank you! |

Ahmed Siddiqui and sons is the main rolex authorised down there, they have a number of showrooms in places such as in the Mall of Emirates, Wafi Centre, Dubai Mall and the Burj al Arab.

If I remember correctly--I believe they even had a Rolex dealer at the airport in Dubai.

Visited AS today
The rep advised me that a SS Daytona has a 12 month waiting list. If you are prepared to buy full price in advance you can have it within 3 months. Does this sound right to you? I thought the SS Daytona had a 5+ year waiting list... |
