Im in vegas next week - what AD should I try my luck at ? I've seen some people get lucky in vegas ;)

The joints full of Rolexes.

You just gotta rip them off someone’s wrist.

Easier to get lucky at the tables and use that profit to go grey if you wanted something to come home with!
But you never know…

Try them all, but be cool about it as they get hit up by tourists many, many, many times each day.

It really depends on what you mean by "get lucky". When at the Wynn about a month ago, they had two 36DJ's and a 28mm OP available. Nothing else, of course. If you're good with any watch, then perhaps you'll be happy with what you find available.

Great point, yet he's going to °Vegas° to get his freak on.

OP: Watches of Switzerland @ Wynn has MB&F. It's Vegas, get lucky

Same, but the only thing I'm hoping to score is a Moonswatch for the Mrs. I'd take one for me too if the color is right and they're available.

eBay. Prices are finally reasonable for a brand new Moonswatch. Any color you want is finally within reason.

Be aware that there are also fake Moonswatches out there though.

Would you believe I'm an early adopter of Ebay that hasn't used it in 20 years now?

Does not surprise me. What surprises me is that they fake the Casio F91W!

I was there with some big pieces on and the only boutiques that had something to offer was Richard Mille. Rolex had one piece

Nads786 · 30 July 2023, 12:47 AM

I was in Vegas in May and there were some TT DJs and a TT SD.

Overall the ADs were really pleasant to work with, but nothing available I wanted.

I was there last weekend and all the AD’s in the casinos had lots of display models but I didn’t ask any questions on availability.

HogwldFLTR · 30 July 2023, 07:34 AM

In Vegas you don't need to get lucky, just need a good bank account!!! (Or did I misunderstand something?)

codecow · 30 July 2023, 08:38 AM

Just walked out of AP at Crystal shops. They had exactly 3 display pieces out, that’s it.

cht · 31 July 2023, 09:51 AM

We’re just there a month ago, went to most of the dealers, they all had more sales associates than watches for sale. Good luck.

woof · 31 July 2023, 09:59 AM

I was just in Vegas..... No SS model in any of the AD's. There are PM models at the AD in the Wynn. The sales people there are nice. BTW.... they took out the museum when they remodeled the store. Good luck.

Tqmb79 · 31 July 2023, 11:01 AM

Go see Bucher in Cesar’s forum. It’s a stunning store and you could spend hours. No joke. Got my pelagos 39 there

I agree, my wife had to pull me out of there back in FEB...

codecow · 31 July 2023, 11:57 AM

The Rolex display in Crystal Shops had all the GMTs exhibition in the window. Nothing great at Bellagio.

wgdaytona · 31 July 2023, 11:26 PM

Luck...Vegas... LOL. Have fun anyway.

zi464 · 1 August 2023, 12:09 AM

Was in Vegas couple months ago, didn't bother walk into any ADs even I saw most of them have nice exhibition .

Spartyfan6262 · 1 August 2023, 03:52 AM

If you're really interested in something, go to Boutique and put your name down. I visited once, expressed interest in a Sea Dweller, and got a call about three weeks later to purchase it. At that time, I had just gotten another watch, so I passed.

sasuke · 1 August 2023, 04:42 AM

visited all the rolex boutiques there this past week. lots of display models. Only ones for sale are one or two ladies pieces.
