I am often amazed that Swiss Luxury has so many models pictured, even those that the Rolex AD catalogue does not show. Where do they get their supply from? Are they reliable?

They get much of their stock from overseas AD's. Popular models are kept in stock, and less popular models are ordered specifically for each customer, so you could potentially have a 14 day leadtime to recieve your watch. First, it is shipped to the grey dealer in the USA, then shipped to the customer.

Swiss Luxury and Alan Furman have been proven very reliable, according to the TRF members.

Do you think they keep SS Daytonas in stock? I don't think so.

i wouldn't be surprised at anything they have in stock. call them and ask, they are great to do business with. today i received a new ladies platinum ym from them for my wife and it is perfect. it is complete as if i got it from my ad here in tulsa. all original packaging, books, warranty papers stamped from the original ad (from Dubai) all protective stickers in place, everything just like it was from my ad. it is a z serial and instead of paying 7,450.00 plus 10% tax, 8,195.00 it cost me 5,740.00 shipped to the house 24 hour delivery FedEx and he is sending me an appraisal for my insurance at full current us cost. the watch has a 3 year warranty from them. all i can tell you is if i can afford another new one in the future i will do business with them, they are striate up, honest people. they get their watches from overstock dealers all over the world. if i had of bank wired them the money i would have saved another 171.00, i will do that next time. it saved me about 33% including tax i would have paid here. 22% without it. that is allot.

i shot pictures taking it out of the FedEx packaging and everything that came with it then i had to come to work. i will soot some pictures of it after i size it for my wife and post them hopefully this weekend or before. all i can tell you is in the future if they have the best price i will do business with them with out hesitation.

Thanks for that story CMR. I'm going to give them a look. This new price increase has me out of the running for my prized DD unfortunately for the time being. I'd always envisioned myself walking into an AD with cash in tow and walking out with my piece of history... but it won't be happening for 25k i'm afraid.

cmr · 5 March 2008, 09:55 AM

i had heard good things about them before but you know how it is, until you see for your self you want to be careful as you can. the next time i will bank wire the money to them and save a little more.

Chozn1 · 5 March 2008, 10:04 AM

I'll go get my drool rag now.

casadecamporolex · 5 March 2008, 10:28 AM

My AD is now using the Swiss Luxury pricelist as a price guide for his own merchandise. They feel that this in reality is the real market price, +/- a few percentage points.
Any thoughts?

cmr · 5 March 2008, 10:34 AM

that is killer!!!! i couldn't get any body to get close to it.

Congrats on the platinum YM for your wife.

I'm assuming your AD is out of the states as you have DR as you location, casade. If that stands for Dominican Republic, then this isn't really surprising. Unfortunately, here in the States we have to fight for our discounts.

Yes they do...for $12500 you can have it shipped with a day or two.

Not MSRP, of course...but its available right away.

robbonds · 6 March 2008, 03:52 AM

i bet they have virtually no inventory...grey mkt dealer..you wire cash - they buy from over seas and ship to you.....

f16570 · 6 March 2008, 06:55 AM

Correct, no inventory and the prices listed are not any cheaper than can be had in the UK.

Actually, there are no AD's in the entire country of the Dominican Republic.
My AD is in USA.

alan furman just updated their prices this afternoon.

casadecamporolex · 6 March 2008, 09:47 AM

So did Swiss Luxury....only AD's half asleep have yet to do it.
Anyone know one that hasn't changed their prices?
