While visiting my favorite AD today with my girlfriend he asked we displayed our watches then reached into the drawer and gave us these cool watch stands. We thought that was very nice of him.

z32turbo · 20 May 2012, 07:10 AM

Very cool!!

TSW · 20 May 2012, 07:10 AM

Great gesture!

Nice!

Sean.c · 20 May 2012, 07:15 AM

I wonder how much theyd go for on ebay

Reu · 20 May 2012, 07:16 AM

Well... I suppose after having spent the thousands you did on those watches a couple of pieces of plastic is a small loss to him.

Glad you got something though!

nauticajoe · 20 May 2012, 07:17 AM

Nice

Believe me, I realize the value differential. But it's nice to just walk in and say hi months later and receive a token now and then. Much like getting a bottle of champagne after buying your house. Its the gesture that makes the difference. We have become friends and he is always very generous.

JohnAndrew · 20 May 2012, 07:27 AM

Really cool!

Well after a lot of recent threads on what crap service AD's are providing it's refreshing to see someone being looked after - A fair point you've made.

Much nicer than a key chain and polishing cloths.

Thx. I never realized this either but they are some kind of cement or plaster with brass fittings. Pretty heavy.

Vallhalla68 · 20 May 2012, 07:34 AM

Very nice of him to do that for you. Thanks for sharing

Protime007 · 20 May 2012, 07:40 AM

I tried for the wall clock but he was having none of it!

Rags · 20 May 2012, 07:46 AM

That was very nice of him.. A small token of appreciation to keep you coming back..

gwalker · 20 May 2012, 08:32 AM

Very cool. I'm not sure what I'd use them for other than pics but a very nice gesture.

HongNinja · 20 May 2012, 08:53 AM

That's awesome! Love Rolex schwag!

Joey_V · 20 May 2012, 09:12 AM

Those are about 100$ a piece... Wow on the gifts! I'm jealous.

Andad · 20 May 2012, 01:15 PM

Lucky you.

I asked my AD in Adelaide if I could 'borrow' a couple of Rolex watch stands just to take some pix.

I was told that Rolex would not allow them to do this

I have only bought 7 watches from them so I guess I couldn't be trusted to bring them back.

chicagofan · 20 May 2012, 01:55 PM

Very nice.

bayerische · 20 May 2012, 05:59 PM

I got a box of Rolex golf balls (12) when I bought my last Rolex.

dddrees · 20 May 2012, 08:54 PM

Cool, it's always kind of nice to get something like that every once in awhile.

Director EDTF · 20 May 2012, 11:20 PM

Sam Philip · 20 May 2012, 11:21 PM

azguy · 20 May 2012, 11:26 PM
