I've noticed the Ben Bridges in town has stopped carrying Rolex (and Omega). Is this true for all BB across the country? Anyone know why? Seems they were an AD for years and years.

I know of a couple Ben Bridge stores here in the Bay Area that are still ADs.

The Ben Bridge near my house has never carried Omega, but are still an AD for Rolex...at least as of last Friday:)

I just bought a Exp II at Ben Bridge on March 31st. They had many Rolex Models on display.

I noticed they stopped carrying Omega several months ago and one of the salesman confirmed that with me. They still carry Rolex but only in select locations now. I have 2 locations near me and only one of them carries Rolex now.

Seems some ADs are optimizing their inventories into stores that turn Rolex quicker.

There's only one AD in my town now. :( The Jared store stopped carrying Omega as well. Salesperson said Omega is moving their watches to focus on overseas markets and bigger markets in the US. Not sure why the BB dealer stopped carrying Rolex here. Perhaps I'll drop in and ask them.

I went in the BB here yesterday and they didn't have any on display. This store was also robbed a couple of months ago and I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

I was in the Scottsdale, Arizona Ben Bridge yesterday, still have Rolex's and they said they will continue to do so.....They also have a very good Rolex tech at this location if anyone locally needs one....

The Carlsbad, CA Ben Bridge stopped selling Rolex this year...

I don't get it.

Why any WIS would consider picking up a Rolex at a BB is beyond me. Family owned AD or via trusted sellers is the way to go - way better discounts and friendlier service!

azguy · 16 April 2012, 04:10 AM

When I was in the Scottsdale one there was a couple in the mid 60's, guessing, that were seriously looking at his and hers. I say seriously only because the calculator was out. I took a quick glance at the case and gave them some privacy and moved on. It looked like he had a DJ II on and the other half had s small YM on.......
