Cozumel watch shops

Just came back from Cozumel and could not believe the amount of shops that stocked Rolex, Omega, IWC, Breitling, Tag, Cartier plus more high end watches that I can't remember at the moment.... Each shop had 6 to 8 high end brands.. Was awesome and even tried on a brand new sub no date. Talk about mouth watering.... Wow! Asked about the new black and blue GMT in one of the shops and they said there was a waiting list...

Was awestruck for sure.. Anyone else shopped there?

A 16600 SD I recently sold was Originally Purchased in Cozumel. I went into a Shop carrying Rolex last year while we were in Cozumel. The saleslady told me they sell 2-3 Rolex Watches each time the Cruise Ships come to the port! I thought that was pretty amazing.

that IS pretty amazing..... Was talking with the cab driver and he said in peak season they see 35 cruise ships per week.. Imagine all the other brands that are flying off the shelf.
The salesmen in any about every shop were VERY good.. They spotted my newer black SMP right off, commented on it then proceeded to work on me to buy something... I had an ace in the hole though that beats a good salesman every time......... I don't have any money.

x2! Would love to be an AD owner in a place like that! People spending money while on vacation is the best.. Well when I'm on vacation I could care less about budget or price.. So they'd have me! I'm not a cruise guy though! But what a souvenir that would be!!!!!
