Another Vegas AD Trip report

We were at the Wynn this week and I checked everyday for a ss professional model. As others have reported they had nothing at all. Not even a single Milgauss, EX II, Air King. Plenty of 18k and datejust but not the blue dial dj except in 36mm. They told one customer he could prepay for the watch he wanted (sub) or he could buy the smurf in the case. It’s just crazy to me that a large AD with a lot of traffic didn’t have one piece. Maybe they were in the back but I asked and of course they said nothing was available.

Prepay? Then wait a year?

Vegas would be the last place I’d look for a ss Rolex today.

Bet they wanted the full msrp 36K for the Smurf too, right? And the customer wanted to spend 8-9K on a normal SS Sub

Considering what your screen name is, the Millennium Falcon might be a better place to check!

They had two WG 116509 Daytonas when I was there earlier this month, but nothing in SS that I can remember. The Watches of Switzerland across the hall had a pretty cool VC Overseas Chrono.

I doubt very much you can get any discount on a PM Sports in Vegas.

Did you check Tourneau in the Caesars shops? They used to have a great inventory, although that was a couple years ago.

They had no SS sports models at the GTG in April.
