More AD opening in NYC

I was walking around the NYSE and noticed that William Barthman in downtown had been re-open. Walked into it and it has the Milgauss and YM2 in steel. A PM Daytona and 2 PM YM2. The staff are really friendly there.

I’m guessing that the economy is really good given that all these new AD are opening.

or the AD has really bad timing. I highly doubt an AD agreement with Rolex happens overnight and has been in the works for a long time.

I don't think an AD opening now has any relation to the ecomomy now, the economy a year or two ago when they got the idea to do that, sure.

For new store openings, is there usually a larger availability at opening day ?

You are in NYC and you think the economy is really good?

I wouldn't say terrible. It's nice to have a place downtown I can stop in and browse around. Midtown is such a mess that I never want to go. I've never purchased anything there, but they were cordial. I was offered a BLNR 2 years ago from out of the safe, but I passed. But now that Watches of Switzerland is open in SOHO, that's the spot. For those who haven't been, it's the best watch spot in NYC. There's a bar and couches to hang out downstairs if you just want to chat.

There's also a London Jewelers AD in the Oculus, so three in what I would consider lower Manhattan.
