Rolex preowned in Vegas

Check out all the pre-owned Rolex’s they had at Tourneau last week. I’ve been in multiple times for years and haven’t seen this much of a selection in a very long time! Wonder if SEMA had anything to do with it.

The salesperson also told me they are receiving Subs weekly. Of course they weren’t on display and you have to be a previous customer to get one.

Crazy, I’m sure all the money though. I stopped in there a month or so ago, and I think they had two preowned SS watches at the time.

Rolex preowned in Vegas

Best place for me to try on a watch during the research process before buying it elsewhere

I was in there a couple of weeks ago.

They certainly had a good selection of preowned Rolex, the sales lady let us try on a couple including a platinum DayDate, with ice blue dial, that was absolutely stunning, the Mrs didn’t want to take it off.

Did they receive the tourneau polish ?

I looked into having some touch up done there and after a few minutes of chatting ended up slipping my watch into my pocket and slowly backing away from the counter.

I wouldn’t bother. These guys severely overprice their preowned watches. To justify their prices, they tell you that they are rare and that you would have to wait 3 years for a Submariner.

Looks like "stickers" per authentic watches.

That hulk looks massive next to the Kermit. I always think the SubC looks bigger than my 116710LN when I see someone wearing one. Don’t know why I see it that way.

Don’t get your hopes up too much, unless you want to overpay. Fun to look at, but hurts spending what they are asking.

When I was there a few months ago they had a black dial 116500? Daytona for $22000 I believe. Sorry don’t know my Rolex references beyond the ones I own.

For me, the coke was the stand out... absolutely mint polished. But they want 12 for it.

If you could negotiate for 11.5 that would not be bad in the long run.

Was also at Tourneau last week. Selection wasn't half bad, but $$$ was high as expected. Wife fell in like with a 31mm Datejust, but wasn't quite perfect.

Who’s paying 16k for a hulk or 18 for a Batman? That’s way off the mark.

There is no such thing as preowned. The term is "used" or "second-hand".
