Wow, Jocke, thanks for the pics!

thomaspp · 30 March 2014, 01:09 AM

Nicceeee! Loved the tour. Don't get the interest in the RMs myself or the price tag!

SWISSAHOLICS · 30 March 2014, 01:48 AM

Awesome pics....I love Dubai.

TAKUYA · 30 March 2014, 03:03 AM

Very nice photos

! your TT YM2 and AP Panda are beautiful as well

iazrollie · 30 March 2014, 03:09 AM

I guess it's safe to wear your Rolex in Dubai.

time2see · 30 March 2014, 04:55 AM

Wow. Thanks for showing.

It looks like you tried on nearly twenty watches ( photographed).

I am sincerely curious as to how that happens?

Is one sales person assigned to you? Do you move case to case and
tell them which watch you want yo try next?
What is the conversation like? Do they describe each watch? Do they
try to sell you a watch?
Do they know from the outset that you are just looking?

I'm from a small community where Rolex is considered "the grail".

Most folks here have never heard of Richard Mille or AP.

Amazing selection of watches, thank you for sharing! I may be in the minority, but out of those I'd get the boring and obvious choice: the Smurf. It looks quite discrete among those outrageous creatures

hdrazor251 · 30 March 2014, 06:34 AM

Nice pics. Dubai is on my bucket list of places to visit.

This was in numerous branded boutiques, virtually every luxury brand has a boutique in Dubai mall (worlds biggest mall I believe)

The watch nerd in me knew most of these models (within reason) before I tried them, and the assistants brought out alternatives for me to look at

I had a bucket list of brands I wanted to view before I went (literally written Down in my phone lol) - it's easy to get side tracked in a mall where you can walk for an hour and not see the same shop twice

G8RDPM · 30 March 2014, 10:57 AM

Amazing selection. It's hard to pick a fave!

datejust24 · 30 March 2014, 11:42 AM

whichever piece that was with what looked like emeralds...clearly a Rolex, possibly a blinged out Pearlmaster or Masterpiece? that thing is just insane...i've never seen a Rolex with so many diamonds etc....beautiful pieces amazing pics.

Porker thanks for the great pics. For Nardin's #2 and #3 I am completely dumbfuckerd about how to determine what time they show. Prolly Darwin's way of telling to me move along.

Wow, great pics!

incontrol · 30 March 2014, 01:54 PM

Awesome tour! Wish I was doing the same. Thanks for sharing with us. My favorites were the Cartiers and the RO models.

salander · 31 March 2014, 04:38 AM

Some serious bling there.

Rockrolex · 31 March 2014, 04:50 AM

Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

The YG YM2 and Skydweller are particularly nice.

I think my favorite of all the watches shown is the Parmigianni. I like multiple complications on my watches and that one really fits the bill.

porschejeff · 31 March 2014, 08:08 AM

Great shopping trip. How did the salesperson feel after playing show n tell and then you leaving without making a purchase?
