Rolex Boutique at Marina Square Singapore - pics heavy
I spent couple of days in Singapore last month after my business trip in Bangkok. I knew I had to check out the Marina Square Rolex boutique as I've heard they had a small permanent exhibition which is quite unique.
At the entrance, I knew it's going to be something special On the inside, it looks like any other ADs but much bigger. I asked to see exhibition which they happily took me on a guided tour. Fortunately the salesperson allowed me to take some photos along the way which I was told later by other staff members that I couldn't Oh well, too late Once inside and past the watch displays. It's a world on its own. Corporate greens and browns with a wall of LCDs and displays on the side. Round the back is where it truly shines, the Rolex way Just like the book, it showcases all the components How the case is made from a block The parachrom hairspring is being produced in stages The movement is on a rotating display Bracelet breakdown There were more stuff to see but difficult to capture due to the glass display. It was pretty informative to see it in person On the way out, there's a Rolex themes bar. Sadly I wasn't offered any drinks Lastly I picked up a magazine before having a browse around all the Datejusts and PM models Lol. There's non of the popular SS models around unfortunately. That's all folks, hope you enjoyed the pics as I have with the overall experience |

I'll use my 1000th post to say thank you very much for sharing!! Nice pictures! That's the most impressive Rolex store and displays I've ever seen. Better than any Baselworld I'm aware of. Thanks again! Cheers!
PS That Deep Sea Special is fantastic and no doubt worth a fortune. PPS Now we also know the secrets of the famous cerachrom Pepsi bezel too! |
