If you want a SS Rolex as your first piece it’s going to be hard, and requires patience. See if someone can introduce you, but would still need to be understanding with the wait. They also don’t get commission which is nice, they won’t just push pieces you aren’t interested in on you. If you can make can pop in more often and connect more it will go long way.

L&B do have exhibition watches to try on and get a feel for them. Was there over the weekend and not even a ladys Rolex at all in the case. A month before i did see a couple diamonded out dial/bezels. Guess those got scooped up for Christmas present.

L&B in Fairfax Square sells preowned Rolex so maybe go in and see some. Need to find different angles to start a relationship.

A few years ago, walked into a boutique Rolex AD for the first time, ended up with my JC DSSD and the white dial 116500 in the space of a couple of years. Other than going Grey, I’ve had no opportunity to buy any Rolex since. Other than a few incomings here, i don’t see new watches being delivered so I have no idea if todays situation will ever change back?

Been to both of the Tysons locations several times. Good people there but never have seen nor been offered any sport Rolex. They had a few 31 mm Datejusts in the case last time I was there if memory serves.

I actually went there last because they are one of the very few Panerai locations in the Baltimore/Washington region.

One place at Tysons I really enjoyed was the Omega Boutique. Excellent experience. No pressure. Knowledgeable staff.

I've visited all L&Bs and liked the Fairfax square location the best. The staff were really nice. My next purchase will be from Fairfax agian or I'll try TJB.
