The Daylight pool at Mandalay Bay is where you will at least see lots of watches in the wild... plus some other wild sights.

It's been awhile for me but I'm guessing you should be able to see some PMs in Vegas.

Las Vegas is a high traffic area. As a result, don’t expect amazing customer service as many associates are jaded from the multitudes of walk ins asking for popular models.
That being said both references you mentioned should be on display. The Tourneau in caesars palace had the RG YM 40 on oysterflex. Hyde park in the same mall had the WG YM 42 on oysterflex. |

The Wynn was the best in my recent visit. Also, Ceasar's Palace and the Venetian had some PM's. I saw three YG YM2's sitting, a couple of RG and YG Sky-Dwellers and a YG DD40. That's about it for popular pieces. The rest are every variation of a DJ possible.
I sat in my hotel room and called every AD in the area and asked them on inventory. I believe there were seven of them.

I just got back this morning. I checked Wynn and Bellagio and they had nothing and didn’t offer much help or hope. I was told at the Bellagio that they had never seen a skydweller (a little hard to believe). Good luck...hope you find something.

Rolex renamed all their stores to be called the Datejust Store.. True story.

The best boutique recently in Vegas is at Aria/Crystal. Better service and far more stock. I used to frequent the Wynn but CS has gone south after Watches of Switzerland for me.

The boutique at the Shops at Cyrstals in front of Aria. It's a new, large boutique. I have bought three watches from there this year.

I usually go to the wynn. Watches of Switzerland is fun to see other brands. The RM store at Crystal is very nice. They would let you try the very expensive pieces. Good luck in Vegas.
