Anyone else hear about this? I heard it's the store in Manhattan so not sure if it's everywhere else.

So what did you buy and did I win

kittansett · 5 August 2021, 12:21 PM

It's the new policy. AD has to stock certain numbers of watches for display. They cannot sell new watches until they fill up their inventory that is dictated by Rolex. Hence, display only. It's across the board.

Mifune · 5 August 2021, 12:53 PM

not here in Vegas...

Seddyspaghetti · 5 August 2021, 12:56 PM

Yep. Been around for a few weeks now in nyc

kittansett · 5 August 2021, 02:10 PM

it's going to be the new norm... get used to it per the AD

Not true. My Boutique is allegedly the 3rd highest volume dealer in the US and they are not participating.

It'll be cool to see and try on models people were thinking about. It'd really solidify the wait lists/interest lists. I'm sure there are a few I'd add to my lists if I saw in person.

Benzsiam · 6 August 2021, 12:53 AM

Yes, it has been around for 2 weeks now.

strettyend · 6 August 2021, 12:59 AM

Bryant Park location?

I think it should be everywhere for Rolex, but you still can pick up the pre-order items.

I see, you’re one of these people who actually believe the moon is real.

Has anyone been to the King of Prussia Store? I wonder if they have the exhibition models too?

jerseydan31 · 7 August 2021, 09:39 AM

West Palm Beach store has plenty of display models to try on. Was there last week and tried out 10 different SS models….none for sale.

Torneau NY… sent by a friend today.

Obviously these are fully functional, and in the brief time my friend was in the store, customers were attempting to purchase them without success. As if the sales reps had it bad before with no inventory, now they get to deal with telling people no to a watch right in front of them.

dannyp · 7 August 2021, 10:12 AM

How does Chicago, the nation’s third largest city, have no display models?

This is interesting. So fully functional (for sale) watches on display and AD has to tell customers to their face..

Multiple signs that say “FOR EXHIBITION ONLY” and SAs tell you upfront they are for viewing and trying on only.
