How much does an AD owner (Medium sized) make a year?

How much do you think an AD owner (medium sized) would make a year? I mean salary wise, after all items are taken care off, rent, inventory, employee salaries, etc.

The one here in Summerlin isn't just an AD for Rolex, do most AD's only sell Rolex ? I think just the Boutique, like Wynn & Company. This one also has high end jewelry, other big watch brands and a horrible Rolex trained watch maker. I don't know how someone could figure the income out.

That's a loaded question.

Most AD's have additional sources of revenue. Precious metals, diamonds, precious and semi precious stones, from both a retail and wholesale perspective. Repairs and upgrades etc.

Location obviously plays a lot into it in terms of rent factor and cost for employee salaries.

Thinking of opening one?

How can anyone answer that? There are so many things that factor into that equation. Impossible to know. Odd question.

Enough to remain in business, or not.

Very wide range. Some are struggling to keep the lights on and some are large multinational chains.

I am guessing mid 6 figures easy.

7 figure possible if you sell a lot of jewellery. Margins can be huge on jewellery.

I imagine they make a good living. They also take the risk and have a lot of cash out in inventory too.
