There is a lot in Dubai! I saw a load of them. Most seemed to be the gold ones which is more the fashion there. The AD's seemed to carry really blinged out models.

My local high end used car dealership. Every salesman has one: from Subs to full-on bling Daytonas. And at a cursory glance they all look like the real deal. Other than that South Beach Miami is crawling with them. If you want to stand out in South Beach don't wear a Rolex!

I went to Greece almost a year ago and saw tons of rolexes both in Greece and in the outer islands. I remember seeing more Subs and GMT2c than anything else. Wow there were so many of them!

Italy is always a good Rolex spotting destination certainly in Rome and Milan which I go to quite frequently.

In Latin America, the wealth is really concentrated into a relatively small segment of the population, so wherever they hang out together, it is almost like wearing a uniform. Go to any marina around and it seems like Rolex would purposely give them away at these places...

A good amount in NYC... depending on which borough/neighborhood, of course.

Highest saturation from what I've seen is Hong Kong or any major city in China. That said, haven't been to Dubai or Abu Dhabi :).
