Which would you choose?

dr3ws · 12 September 2017, 09:26 PM

Is that for display only or are they actually for sale?

Sarosh · 12 September 2017, 09:28 PM

What we in the UK would do to see a display like that!!'!!!

Quicksilver · 12 September 2017, 09:35 PM

And I was in Perth last month

Old Expat Beast · 12 September 2017, 09:38 PM

A properly, desirably stocked Rolex AD window looks almost surreal.

Amex4711 · 12 September 2017, 09:40 PM

I'm on the way to Perth to catch the two Daytona

dardeca · 12 September 2017, 10:20 PM

That is a solid display window!!

BiH115 · 12 September 2017, 10:22 PM

Both variations of the SS Daytona, a Hulk, BLNR, and a SubC? What is this!?

ap1 · 12 September 2017, 10:33 PM

So Rolex does actually produce watches

Zhi · 12 September 2017, 10:38 PM

Hi All..

I was lucky enough to pickup the BLNR in the pic after stalking the opening and getting in touch with the manager prior to opening..
Managed to skip a 2.5yr wait for the BLNR in Perth..!

Very nice snipe, post pics when you get it.

watchwatcher · 12 September 2017, 11:17 PM

Nice...I'll take that LV-C.

Steve36Efc · 12 September 2017, 11:46 PM

No Dblue? Shocking!!!!
I wonder who managed to bag the Daytonas?

Danny83 · 13 September 2017, 12:01 AM

Amazing selection and congrats

Old Geezer · 13 September 2017, 12:33 AM

I bet they had a line as a far as the eye could see at opening. If that selection was displayed in the USA, there would be rioting

Over here, people would time inside to get their hands on them lol

YellowSubb · 13 September 2017, 01:06 AM

Inside they had the deep sea blue and black, no date sub, new seadweller and AirKing.
Amazing sight it was!

Great to see this....

Boaters · 13 September 2017, 06:00 AM

WOW that is one beautiful sight!

Shamorai · 13 September 2017, 06:14 AM

After those sell there will be nothing but Datejusts in stock for the next year or so.

Zakalwe · 13 September 2017, 07:11 AM

Since in the UK you could wander the AD trail and not see a single one of those watches for a year this thread is vaguely depressing! I'm also a geek.

Those two statements mean that I was inclined to do a bit of maths.

If you could have somehow bagged all five watches for retail you'd spend AUS$65k. If you then decided to take a trip to the Motherland with all 5 BNIB you could flog them here with very little effort for £53000-ish, which converts back to AUS$85000.

So you could make a 20k buck profit, minus travelling expenses, without breaking a sweatl.

ardvarkshorty · 13 September 2017, 07:34 AM

Where is the new Boutique ?
They have a Hulk also!

sampelligrino · 13 September 2017, 08:43 AM

Wow!!!!! I've never seen an SS Daytona on a display like that, let alone two..

HK Islandboy · 13 September 2017, 09:22 AM

...and how empty was the window 20 minutes after opening (or after this post went up)??!

Sarosh · 13 September 2017, 10:08 AM

Never seen any of those watches in a window in the UK. As for the daytonas I am shocked that they're in the window. I genuinely thought I'd never ever ever see that!!! Bet that AD had more customers in one hour than they do in one day!!!

Zhi · 13 September 2017, 10:24 AM

They opened at 5pm...
when i got there at 8:30pm, there was still a GMT LN, SubC Date, Hulk and of course my BLNR.

There was no line and no-one in the store other than 10 staff.

Was told by the manager that the stock was for sale to public on that day only and if not sold prior, would then be offered to those on their waiting list.

Here's a pic with my Cartier Drive when I picked up thr BLNR

Sarosh · 13 September 2017, 10:30 AM

Congrats on being there at the right place and right time. What I'd give to walk past an AD window in London and see such watches! I think we all would in the UK!

The rumours are true! So conveyer belt might not be completely broken.

You would never see that display here in Vancouver either! Not even at the local Rolex Boutique. Congratulations on being at the right place at exactly the right time.
