Very limited. There is a couple of Rolex ADs in the area but very limited selection even before the limited availability problem

There was an AD in MacArthur Mall. I purchased a Navitimer from them a long time ago, but they also carried Rolex. Not sure nowadays. It's been awhile since I lived in Portsmouth.

While I can’t give you a good jeweler, I can give you a world class BBQ joint nearby. I was stationed in Nofuk for a couple of years, haze gray and underway. This was always a first stop after deployment.

Pierce’s Pit Barbeque in Lightfoot, right off the 64. I wouldn’t visit without stopping. Google it. Virginia style bbq at its finest.

Dang, now my mouth is watering. I need a bbq pork sandwich, STAT! ...add a little coleslaw and Tabasco.

I’m visiting here now. Wasteland here. The ADs are in malls and nothing worth seeing. There are a few pawn shops I was thinking about looking into.

The AD that was in Lynnhaven mall got robbed years ago and have since cleared out their cases. Gold Bar jewelry store in Hill Top shopping center (Virginia Beach) sells Rolex. Along with the other shops in downtown Norfolk (waterside area).

I forgot about Long Jewelers, not an AD but normally has some Rolex in stock. Last time I was there about a month ago he had a couple of BLNRs

Ad's are empty but even they have suggested Long's on the Blvd. having a few new pieces.

I check his site regularly, but don't recall where he's located. Thanks for the heads up.
