Rolex @ 1 Hyde Park London
Had a visit to Londons new Rolex Boutique...very nice indeed. Had in stock literally every model. Also had a quick chat with the sale person. New Exp II expected in Sept and no news of any looming price rise.

If you are in the area well worth having a look.

Well, I'm not going to list all of the watches but they had tons of DJ's, Milgauss GV and Black dial, DSSD, GMTIIC's, ND Sub, Exloperer II white and black (old style), 39mm Explorer I and loads of gold models (YM's, daytonas, DJ's, subs, GMTIIC's, etc). Pretty sure they had new black ceramic sub too. Only thing missing were SS daytonas.

They also said when the new models come out later in the year they will be getting more than any other AD on the first initial allocation...they don't operate lists so all on a first come first served basis.

Do they need an enthusiastic (and soon to be fully graduated) salesman?

That's good to know. Has there been a confirmed UK retail price for the new EXPII?

To be honest mate I didn't really ask as I think I've heard it's going to be £5,180 (ish) from this or other forums.
