My AD offers k-cup beverages, water and soda with a plate of cookies. I appreciate the thought. But with discounts evaporating, part of me thinks they should be able to spring for a real expresso machine.

Curious, what do your AD's offer while you consider paying more for a watch than many pay for a car?

arizonapaul · 8 April 2018, 06:25 AM

Doesn't matter to me, if i feel like grazing I'll head over to Costco on the weekends for all the freebie samples.

Yum. Lol

Mine offers a 38% spread.

watchbowl · 8 April 2018, 06:32 AM

Beer, tea, coffee, water. They have a drinks menu but never had a proper look but I’m guess there was a sparkling option on there as well

c41006 · 8 April 2018, 06:34 AM

I've been offered champagne at an Omega AD as soon as I walked in the door but never at a Rolex AD

_speedmaster_ · 8 April 2018, 06:35 AM

Mine has a bar/lounge area in the back with some quality whiskey/bourbon.

JTL31 · 8 April 2018, 06:37 AM

I was offered a beer/champagne or red wine @ 10:30 a.m. yesterday - Lol. I settled for the filtered h2o in glass w/ice & a store labeled h2o bottle to go. Offerings: Lindt & Guiardhelli choc., various fresh cookies & coffee in china cups. Last July I left the AD w/a bottle of red wine that had store pic/logo of sorts.

Nikrnic · 8 April 2018, 06:39 AM

Water, at least not from the tap. I'm no VIP, out of my purchases I've only bought a new 114060 last nov. But I'm not one to complain, I did get 7% off. Thats better than Champagne.

My local shoe shop will give you soft drinks/ beer

wine or a glass of fizz for your good lady. Great service.

Shoes are not crazy expensive either.

Well, YOU have to bring the bubbly to the Rolex AD.

Then you might get your name on a list.

gk032 · 8 April 2018, 09:15 AM

Bottled water, no discount but a $350 auto-winder. I accepted the water, purchased the watch and declined the winder. Love the Rolex!

When I bought my Datejust from Ben Bridge, I was offered a bottle of State Bros water or a paper cup of Maxwell House coffee with powdered non dairy creamer.

Is it a boutique owned by Swatch group?

SLS · 8 April 2018, 10:00 AM

I've been offered beer, wine/champagne and water/soda. I've always passed on the adult beverages...1 leads to 2 and so on, then stupid decisions occur!

The main AD in my town has a spread of...Watches.

No seats - just counters to lean on while making a purchase.

Food and drink are sold in restaurants near by.

FiguredMaple · 8 April 2018, 10:44 AM

What could this guy be singing that would complement or enhance a watch purchase?

I accepted a bottle of sparkling water at my last watch purchase, while I waited in their private lounge area for my purchase to be sized.

Some0ne actually made a similar remark that day! That's Bastian Baker, Omega brand ambassador and a Swiss singer song-writer who gave a special unplugged concert at the flagship Omega boutique at Starhill Gallery Kuala Lumpur. He performs at exclusive concerts and does gigs at Omega boutiques all over the world

Lakesclub · 8 April 2018, 12:24 PM

REALLY nice guitar!

Oh Puuleeezzzz....Gimme a break.My primary job here and elsewhere is to present different ideas and decorate the OP's thread with cheerful colourful photos, sort of like a comic relief moment. Just ignore my posts and continue discussions with the other esteemed members of the forum. I'm cool with that..
