Pretty amusing how the mothership can stock a huge new store, yet there are no SS sports and other high demand models to be had anywhere else around the world.

Funny how the all mighty buck works, ain’t it?

'The second floor of the boutique houses Rolex's most precious watches, and is only accessible via an elevator (and an invitation)'

The climb upmarket is here. Invitation only just to see this section.

Exclusivity among exclusivity.

I lived there for a number of years (and absolutely loved it). I doubt most of the posters on TRF would find the watches on the 2nd floor to be of much interest.

Not sure if this is a positive or a negative but damn, Rolex boutiques, offices and service centers look so dated. Perhaps you could call it “timeless” and while the sort of mid century modern look is certainly charming, it’s just weird for such an innovative company.

Video Review Vlog coming soon! Watch this space...

P.S. Spoke to my contacts at Seddique and also others. Limited SS models so it's beginning to feel like a ROLEX control thing.

I will be looking forward to your video! I remember when I first decided I wanted a Rolex a month ago and saw your review of the OP 39 on YouTube.
