I was there last weekend. It’s adjacent to a 3 story Hermès store, and a 3 story Cartier store in a new part of the mall called Fashion Avenue. I asked about the other Rolex store in the mall and he said “yeah but it’s so small”. I said “but will it remain open?” And he replied “yes both stores will remain open in the same mall”. The smaller Rolex store sells Tudor while this one does not. On the third floor they have many SS models but they’re not for sale only to try on. Went to the first floor and saw a few Air Kings, Milgauss, and even a SD for sale. I didn’t get the impression that anything was invitation only...if you ask to see something they’ll show it to you. First floor has a filled case with rose gold Yachtmasters and DJs but of course the GMTs and submariners were only for display

i would say its more the expectation of being over the top. Its pretty much like that with everything in Dubai. Like skiing inside, in the middle of the desert

No thing interested at all.
Only YM, Expl. and Air king. Otherwise all WG, YG, PM, DJ and a couple of TT, though no sub or GMT TT. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Not sure it was a coincidence that Roger Federer showed up...

Went there today. As expected just a handful of SS sports models amongst a sea of DateJusts and two tone models. On the other hand, the Cartier boutique next door was fantastic as was the Vacheron Constantin boutique in the mall.

Had a chance to visit this yesterday, amazing store! SS stock is very limited, what's new. otherwise the whole store experience is one of a kind. if you get a chance to visit, try to ask for a tour of the 3rd floor ("The Rolex Experience"). don't miss the film viewing in their mini-theater. :)

Looks like Rolex are more interested in interior design than making and selling watches......
All part of the increasing 'fakery' of the modern world.
