Rolex HK Prices

I was looking for preloved, but now I'm considering a BNIB. Anyone know the BNIB price for these items in HK at an AD currently?

116613LN
116613LB

What kind of discount should I expect?
Is buying a BNIB not from an AD safe? Will I get better discounts?

Not much discounting in HK... they can pretty much sell at retail all day long to the many mainlanders who visit. Maybe 8% to 10% at best?

About TT model in BNIB, I think the best discount is less than 3% off, call this no. at 852 - 2688 2866 of ChowTaiFook Jeweler for enquiry.

It's now the rate is narrow gradually from 3 ~ 5% off depends on models.

Pak Lee is located in TST on Middle Road and Pak Lee is NOT Ken's Watches.

Can you see the Pak Lee stock list on the web? That is do they have a website?

Steve - no they don't have a stock list or website but they have been around for over 30 years and I would say they are by far the most reputable vintage and grey dealer I know in Hong Kong.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not an idiot and you're just making a feeble joke.

Here are some HK preowned shops:

Ken’s Watches - www.kenwatches.com - 3 locations (see website), pretty good selection, fair pricing.
Pak Lee Watches – 4(?) Middle Rd, TST, Kowloon, Good selection, prices fair.
Noble Watch, Sino Centre, 582 Nathan Rd Mong Kok
(Recommended – this is where I found my 14060M “Y” series for 2,900 USD in near mint condition. This little mall has several stores that looked good with great prices (w/haggling)).
Kings Watches, 366 Portland, Mong Kok, Kowloon
Po Wan Lai Watches, Causeway Bay
Chuen Fat Watch and Jewellery, Jardine Street, Causeway Bay
Union Watch, Kimberley Rd. in the Champagne Court.
Tse’s Collection – 4 Ichang St, TST, Kowloon, Small collection, fair price.
www.kwaiyanwatch.com 688 Nathan rd, Mong Kok, Kowloon

Yes, Ken's is a good seller. I don't think Pak Lee has a website, but this is not an internet-friendly town.

I personally have never made any purchases at Ken's but do have friends that have said great things about them.

Excellent list! I may have to check some of those out when I visit Hong Kong this summer. Thanks!

I am not impressed with KEN WATCH at all. When I rung their central office from UK, the guy on the other end said he will not give out any prices on the phone! He said he will only sell to people who visit the shop!

They do list prices on some Patek watch which cost just as much as UK with 20% VAT.

I just think the way they deal with enquiry leave much to desire!
