No pics, but stopped in Sydney Thomas at the mall at Short Hills hills. Over 110 Rolex pieces on display, Probaly the rarest I guess would be the 42 white gold yacht & (3) dd40 meteorites

Lots of watches, very nice staff.

Dropped in omega, wouldn’t budge from msrp

Sorry no pics, but Sunday Thomas was packed with men’s watches for sure, I bet there is some nice stuff in the safe

I wonder why the white YM on OF is hard to find? I am interested in the RG version and they seem easy to find. Thanks for sharing.

Their displays have been fuller recently

Not many of them out there. My AD, who ordered mine, isn't able to order a second this year. They had a customer with cash in hand but they aren't allocated another in 2020.

Yeah I thought they were a hard find, very cool watch, way too big for me, I’m turning into an old man fast!

Oh one other strike on the omega spot was I made an order for a buckle about 4 months ago, figured it looks was just hard to get, didn’t even have my name down or any record of it, can’t say I was impressed, although the sales guy was nice

Visited this store one month ago. They don't show any SS or hot model on the front. At that time, they had black explore II and black SDDS, and TT Sea Dweller. I passed all of them.

I posted a thread stating the same thing a few days ago and simply got flamed and inferred that I was lying.

Some people really want to grasp at straws the the Rolex bubble will never burst.

Glad to see people coming to their senses in this thread at least.

Pretty soon SS and sports watches will be in the cases again. AD's are not different than other companies. They really care about keeping the doors one at the end of the day, not the narrative of one brand.

ahh yes I remember that thread actually, my wife even goes "I am not surprised the cases had watches but the walls were filled too"

she took notice, couldn't believe how many, I always make her come with me on these trips so I don't buy crap I don't need!

I also made mention that I think I wore out my welcome at my normal AD, too much in the middle as far as purchases and I don't see my self really ever getting a highly sought after watch again, SA seemed to agree (of course). I am not a high roller or a new customer, there for the pieces go to other customers regardless of "relationship", new custom=new business, while I am sloppy seconds at the end of every list getting only calls now when air kings come in..........

I guess heres to "starting over" lol

Lol, I follow that guy already, that isn’t who I dealt with but I wouldn’t be surprised if they had multiples of every hot ss piece in the back

That’s day date wasn’t out either

Did they seem interested in selling you a hulk without bundling?

I’ve found this store to be very friendly but definitely looking to bundle (a ladies DJ was specifically mentioned) any stainless piece for new customers.

No I told him I owned a hulk and didn’t like it, so we never got that far, If a store went down that road with me I would just walk out, I’m not into that at all

However we did talk about my wife’s date just she was wearing a little and how they don’t make them anymore. I was also wearing a day date so I would assume if he wanted to bring up bundling a new ladies Dj with a blro (which is what I got on a “list” for) I would have been a good lead. However no bundling was ever mentioned

Went to the Sydney Thomas store in garden state plaza mall and they stopped selling Rolex.

[dimag333]

Oh yeah, also I spent about 20 minutes in there, left for an hour and came back and spoke with him again, that’s when I asked to be called about a blro. I explained to him I wasn’t getting the warm fuzzy feeling anymore from my current ad and that I enjoyed our convo

You were flying in from San Diego! Dayum!

What were you looking to get?

Usually Omega boutiques stick close to msrp but will budge a little if your ready. Buying an Omega at a regular AD is a whole different ballgame. I could have got a great discount at one last week on a PO but it's so heavy on the wrist I regretfully had to pass.

Lol I love how ridiculous they are in Omega boutiques. Even with discounts they give like 5-10%. I can get literally any watch in their show room, new for like 25% off without any effort.

Hi Steve. I'm originally from south Jersey. :) back visiting so thought to stop by to say hello to my SA. She texted earlier basically saying we don't have any SS models and that includes the dj41... clearly there was a hulk in the vault and I didn't make it to the VIP list.

If you follow that insta (in his stories) that SA seems to get a ton of demand SS pieces.
