Hi Guys,
For Rolex fans travelling or living in New York
The new Watches of Switzerland is Opening Tomorrow.
Just be grateful if anyone around or near the store please take some photos ?
There’s some nice features like a library, bar etc
But more interested in the big display of Rolex which most will be taken for obviously
Thanks

Wonder where they are in New York. Articles say SoHo but don't see any addresses listed even on their website

Did not realize they are opening. I’ll have to check it out to not see any SS Rolex.

Nikrnic · 23 November 2018, 12:49 PM

Sounds nice and upscale. Bar and library, cool.

It would be lousy grand opening in NYC if no Rolex SS but u suppose they can showcase other brands as well

That said I'm sure they will have token SS models that seem easier to get like the AK and Milgaus

Lol. It must be near all the high end shops.

RX0 · 24 November 2018, 12:05 AM

What time will be the grand opening?

Ballzzz · 24 November 2018, 01:37 AM

Yea I can’t find any info - looking to get some fresh parchment!

gregjd · 24 November 2018, 01:41 AM

On a related note, their podcast called "Calibre" is worth a listen

In NY visiting family in the neighborhood this week.

Looks like they opened at 11:00 - 60 Greene Street... hope to stop in at some point!!

NLYogi · 24 November 2018, 03:04 AM

No sport models or rare Daytona’s, nothing to see here. Just saying.

Did u go?

RX0 · 24 November 2018, 06:20 AM

Not true, there are steel Daytona, skydweller, and the Pepsi in display. Pretty much has all the models except the blue dial skydweller.

Very nice set up. There is a lounge downstairs and it is a great place to hang out.

tiberiustime · 24 November 2018, 07:29 AM

All there. Everything “presold”

tiberiustime · 24 November 2018, 07:32 AM

And it’s on 60 Greene street

Thats just a tease and means they have nothing if you can't buy it

Went there as well as Wempe on 5th....zero sports models to be had...although the diamond district a few blocks always has everything you could want (above msrp of course) haha.

There are patek 5712 steel and 5711 as well.

In terms of pre-sold, I wonder how did they sell it before grand opening. They were saying about taking the info down for consideration.

Rolex Essex · 24 November 2018, 08:31 AM

Looks like the Aurum group is planning to take over N. America.

Nice to hear positive feedback, cheers

broham84 · 24 November 2018, 10:34 AM

I can confirm RX0 is corrected. My friend and I waited in freezing weather for the store to open for hour and half. They had every SS model available, Pepsi, Daytona, hulk, SD43, sub, and a case full of nautilus, 5711 and 5712.

Not everything was pre-sold, I was offered both 114060 and the Hulk. Unfortunately, the Pepsi was pre-sold. The Vice President of the US was kind enough to work with me and promised me that the next Pepsi comes in is going to be mine.

The store itself is fabulous, the bar downstairs is nicely put together. Overall a wonderful experience.

Fat_ninja · 24 November 2018, 11:02 AM

So most are presold? I assume to VIP’s. How much do you think VIP’s are spending at this event?

The sales staff came from other chains and stores, they sold those pieces to their clients before the store was open.
