Recommend Rolex ADs in Italy ?
Hi,
I will be in Italy by the end of August (Venice, Florence, Rome). I am interested in getting either a Sub ND or a BLNR from an AD. Since I am from Germany tax refund does not apply to me. Can you recommend any good ADs in those cities that might give me a good discount on either model? I would be a bit hesitant to buy grey in Italy. Many thanks. |

I visited the Cassetti rolex dealer on Ponte Vecchio just this monday. They had steel subs in stock, wasn't looking to buy anything in steel so unfortunately I can't give an answer on potential discount.

I was quoted 6100 USD after VAT refund on a no date sub in ST Mark's square in Venice at the end of June. Ended up
buying a Panerai that day instead. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

Thanks. But since I am from the EU no tax refund for me If I add 22% Italian VAt to that price ($6100) I could get the SubND cheaper in Germany buying grey from a local. |

Thanks for the info. I won't be in Bologna though. Brandizzi in Rome seems to have pre-owned Rolex (according to Chrono 24). Does he have new stuff as well and does he give a good discount? |

I was in Italy in July looking for a Hulk. I went into Cassetti on Ponte Vecchio and they didn't have the BLNR or Hulk. They commented that it's unusual for them to have them.
They actually seemed surprised I was wearing a BLNR. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This! I've bought 4 Rolexes from Silvio at this location. Super nice guy. There was a BLNR when I was there but I didn't pull the trigger. He ended up shipping one to me.

Hi,
I am currently in Italy. I have found a BLNR from an AD in Germany in the meantime (German list price is better than Italian). However I am still looking for Sub No Date at a good discount (best price in Germany was Euro 6200.00 from reputable grey dealer). I will try Florence and Rome in the next few days. Any good suggestions? |
