Got a new Sky Dweller

Not the one I wanted, but didn’t want to pass on a steel Sky Dweller.

AD insisted on taking the stickers off the head piece of the watch but left them on the band. He showed me the email from Rolex.

1) sale must be for end customer
2) warranty card must reflect name and date
3) all stickers must be removed. If stickers aren’t removed do not give out warranty card. Warranty card will be named and dated when stickers are removed.

The last bullet point he told me that they can leave all the stickers on if it’s a gift, but no warranty card will be given until the recipient comes back to have the stickers removed and the watch resized.

Guy wasn’t budging at all on the policy.

Feels great. Just wish it was blue. Not sure if I wanna keep it, but here it is...

Congratulations. Great watch.

RGV? What is your location - country?

Least AD could have done is set the watch for you.

Congrats and love it! I passed on blue and went with black. Although this could be one watch I would be happy owning in all 3 colors from black to blue to white in that order.

congrats.

The black is growing on me more and more. Id probably pick that one now. The blue is more stunning and kind of steals the show but the black is the one with the saying power long term

Beautiful and congrats on your new purchase. Is that a rule for all AD'S or just your local AD. Didn't seem to have that issue when I picked mine up. My AD told me to take the stickers off whenever I wanted to.

One thing I’m getting pretty curious about (and have had several conversations with my AD)....but with all these new ‘policies’ we’re hearing...when I get bored with a watch is Rolex going to buy it back!?! 🤣

The black is the sleekest and makes the red indicator pop the best. Enjoy.

Thanks

Based on the email he showed me it’s a rule for everyone. My go to AD leaves all the stickers on for me. I guess it’s like discounting. Some do, some don’t.
