I live down there so the abundance of high end watches is no big deal. As for the posters who want to take shots at the Latin/Cuban community you are so wrong. Most I have had the pleasure to know are hard working good folks and very family oriented. Miami is also a huge destination for international travel especially from south America from where a lot of money flows. I have never had a problem at any mayors in all of south Florida. Most of the salespeople at bal harbor are snotty tools. Aventura by the way is like the number two highest volume mall in the united states. And yes.... The women are often stunning.

I always stay at the Delano and I agree there are always plenty of Rolexes around!

wingding · 30 September 2013, 11:48 AM

Just left Miami after getting to wear mine for the first time this week while on business. Yes it felt good. :)

South fla loves invicta.

@karmtp obviously there are a lot of people who have a Rolex. My point was, being a well travelled man, there are an above average number of Rolex's, in my experience, in Miami.

Even some of the honeys are rockin them. The one next to me at the pool party had a Gold Daytona. Looked good!

Did you ask her if they were real!

Mr Singh · 30 September 2013, 02:11 PM

@SUBversive hahaha I didn't need to ask! They were defo not real! But I weren't complaining ;)

Hairdude1 · 30 September 2013, 02:33 PM

A lot of people have good taste!

montres1 · 30 September 2013, 09:09 PM

Went to the Panerai AD in Bal Harbour too, watches in the states are dearer than the UK. For example the PAM321 in UK is £6400. In US it's $9800 plus 7% tax = $10,486 converted to pounds at today's rate of 1.56 equates to £6721. They weren't willing to do any deal or offer free straps or anything.

IWC in Bal Harbour were willing to discount by the 7% tax and also were cheaper than the UK

You can get new Panerai watches Miami from reliable sellers with a 15% discount. Regarding the comment in general it is true that there are many luxury watches on the wrist but there are many poor and the unemployment is in Florida the largest of USA I think. This is what happens in the world, so shares rise more Louis Vuitton than Walmart. So I read an article in the Wall Street Journal.

The ones I seen, doubt very much they were fakes as the people wearing them looked quite well to do. If they were fakes must've been some damn good copies.

Last day in Miami today, back to London tmrw so better take in the sites around the pool ;)

If you think you are seeing many Rolex in Miami (and I am sure you are as I did when I traveled there..) try taking in a PGA event - I swear that 80% of the mature gallery are wearing Rolex. It was something to see.

Cheers!!

Latinos and posers eh?... Not sure how that correlates...

rmfnla · 1 October 2013, 03:24 AM

Another thing about Miami is the abundance of water activities; boating, skiing, the beach, and it seems everyone has a pool.

As we all know, Rolex is known for water resistance so you are covered no matter what comes up...

kcmo · 1 October 2013, 11:55 AM

Too funny! We just got back from a trip to South Beach last night and I have to agree.....saw tons of folks wearing Rolex

Thoroughly enjoyed meeting the folks at Mayor's...they couldn't have been nicer

Funny a friend of mine was at a high class steak house and told me that more than 6 people of wealth that were there were all wearing fakes, different brands Rolex ect??? I found that hard to believe!!

Cru Jones · 1 October 2013, 07:09 PM

Worst experience in Florida was at Aventura Mall, Rolex AD and even the Omega boutique shop were total pricks. My guess is that there's so much dirty money floating around Miami, they don't have to be cordial...

I think your initial premise is slightly flawed.

When I say slightly, I mean complete nonsense.

Circa 750,000 watches PA for Rolex total, over 50% DJs. Sub production a good 50,000-60,000 PA or fewer.

Sub production similiar to Patek production. Both mass market of a sort.
