The Wynn AD is breathtaking window shopping. I've never heard of anyone paying less than full retail there but, man, unparalleled selection.

If you have never stayed there you are going to love it
I've been there 8 times and it truly is the best resort on the strip
Have breakfast at the terrace point cafe over looking the pools it's great.
Mane Lobster Benedict is really something. Sorry got off topic
They recently revamped the Rolex Boutique and it's amazing Luis is their watchmaker and he's very accessible, friendly and willing to spend time with you

I was there about two months ago...Very impressive inventory, but I did not buy anything. I've gotten so used to buying wholesale, and cant make myself pay full price!!

Same experience as others. Great selection, but somewhat snooty service and full MSRP only.

As someone whose been to Vegas a few times, I used to enjoy popping in the Tourneau in Caesars to peruse the Rolex collection . . . . the The Wynn opened - WOW fantastic store (like everything in the Wynn) !

Alas I've never bought there as no discounts.

A place where people will pay anything to get what they want, never heard of anyone gotten a discount there either.

I was just there last week in search of a Blnr. It was not there. I had to try on a gold Gmt. My dream watch. Unfortunately I had to deal with a snobby associate.

Afraid you won't be allowed to take pics once inside. They have ruled out pics of their cases, etc. But you can shoot pics of the display windows from outside.

Most impressive selection of models and variations you may ever see.

I never had a bad experience there during a couple of visits. Staff was very accommodating to me. On the price issue - yes MSRP is their mantra - and for a readily available model it isn't worth paying that just to say "I got it at the Wynn".

But there are some special models that you could wait a year to more to get elsewhere, so the price may be worth it to make a trip memorable as well as snag something you just can't get back home...

Enjoy the trip - gaming at the Wynn is superb compared to other casino's and I must admit I lost mucho dinero at other places but came out ahead at the Wynn. SO - maybe a soft spot in my heart...maybe...

Yes I agree the window shopping in general at the Wynn is awesome because they have large selections of other brands as well.

There is no feeling like walking through the Wynn / Encore Shopping Esplinade
If you have a Rolex on your wrist you feel like a king. No place id rather be for shopping, dinning, gaming and a private cabana for the day by the pool is outstanding.
Anyone who has never been to Vegas should go and anyone who had gone but hadn't tried the Wynn / Encore need to have that experience. They recently remodeled the Rolex Boutique and the inventory is amazing. More Rolex models under one roof that anywhere else and a must see I'd you love Rolex. There are several other brand specific watch boutiques in the Wynn / Encore as well

The Wynn is the best.

Staff at the Rolex boutique are always willing to let you try anything on.

Certainly a great store for viewing Rolex in one store, other than that, nothing special IMO.
The hotel is fantastic, but Vegas has so many watch stores (all brands) that it's hard for me to say one is better than another.

For me, Vegas is a great place to look, not to buy.....

First trip there I walked to the first roulette wheel I saw and put $100 on 00 and hit.

Yes, I like this resort. Protip though, the best place on the strip is Four Seasons at Mandalay. I have stayed everywhere there, I like Four Seasons because it's a normal high end hotel and you can cut off all the noise and crazy stuff while at the same time having access to primo gambling.

^^THIS^^ Exactly. Stayed at the Wynn. Pretty window shopping. Who would buy there? Beats me. Almost anyone I know has done better elsewhere.

However, if you don't mind paying flu retail or more plus tax...it's awesome.

What models can you see here that you can't see at any AD?

All the AD's I've been to have EVERYTHING in stock everytime.....save for the superblinged out diamond and other precious stone pieces...so is that what Wynn has? The superblingers? if so? so what?
