Dubai

[Saints1]

Hello all, and Happy Saturday. I'm hoping to get some recommendations for a reputable place in Dubai, AD or otherwise, to try to pick up some additions to my collection when I am there. New, NOS and pre-owned (excellent condition) are all ok. Thank you in advance for any advice that you may have.

AD - forget about it, only lady 28mm watches here.

Grey - Check Dubai Gold Souk, some decent dealers there. I've heard good things about SK_Watches (check them on Instagram).

I bought a steel DJ36mm out of the case in Dubai a few weeks ago. They had a few options to choose from.

Thanks for you guys' quick input. I was also told about a place called Luxury Souq Dubai, but its reviews across some of the sites aren't overly encouraging.

In Dubai there’s really just one Rolex AD with 7 stores: Seddiqi&Sons. Some say its the most important AD in all Rolex’s Network.

However, I’ve been there a few months ago and there’s nothing available above 36mm. Same Seiddiqi runs the AP and PP shops so don’t bother. Rather go see Alberto at Panerai (great guy) or see Omega, Breguet or even IWC in Dubai Mall. I was rather disapointed with the JLC shop, only one lady there and completly incapable dealing with more than just one customer at a time.

Good luck.

Seddiqi runs the show there and unless you have a personal connection or history, probably not a real possibility. SK Watch is good, but the prices reflect no savings over worldwide reseller prices.

Wonderful city however. Go there frequently.

They’re legit and I used to buy from them when I lived there. They’ll bring you anything you ask for. For a price.

Good luck!
