I think only two in Perth, Smales and Watches of Switzerland. Both have very limited stock and wait times are in the months or years for a Daytona. Nice problem to have, Jake. So I take it that's where all the Australian Rolex stock is going.

I think a few more would be good, competition is good for the consumer (like in the past).

That way you can walk into a store and buy a SS sports model without a long wait, and even possibly get a discount :) All about supply and demand.

It's what the market will bear. The first Hong Kong Rolex AD, Lane Crawford department store, began selling in the 1930s (the store is still here, but is no longer an AD). You can find several ADs within spitting distance in some areas now, but they are all over HK. Tourists from across the border account for a lot sales, but only over the last 10-15 years or so. The RSC is usually filled with about 20 to 30 people waiting for drop off or collection, people of all stripes and social classes. Rolex culture runs deep here.

Hong Kong IS "Rolex Heaven" after all! Just walk through TST or Causeway Bay and there are Rolex dealers on every corner!
