If I want to buy 100 of the same watch if available I’m sure I could do that. Now I know that’s impossible, but the point is resources from such a company would not be exhausted. MAYBE the AD would decide to not deal with you if they somehow found out but I doubt it would be a call from the Rolex “FLIP PREVENTION” department.

Not mad at all that you bought 3. Congrats. A pic would be nice.

Now that I'm told is that Rolex may do an audit of ADs and ask them to present their invoices. If they told 10 of the same reference to the same individual, that might raise a red flag. But otherwise, it's totally permissible to buy more than one of a single reference. I helped out someone who was giving their entire corporate team Air Kings, and after showing some corporate documentation, and the AD having sent in some details about what the request was for, the order was fulfilled. Now for the OP - your thread might rub some here the wrong way as it may come off as rubbing it in people's faces, but it's totally your right to buy multiples of the same reference. |

Thank you very much for the insight! It definitely was not meant to be taken in that sense. I was more sharing my story for those who have been in my shoes waiting for years and than all of a sudden there is a dim of light at the end of the tunnel - plus a bonus! As I mentioned all 3 watches are in good use by people who appreciate them. I got one, my father got one and a very close friend of mine was able to get one aswell all for retail! This should make people happy!

You are probably right. Problems in buying come from ADs who decide not to sell to someone for whatever reason. Rolex only gets involved when they see their watches show up for sale with all the stickers on as "unworn." Sticker removal is now their policy and they enforce as best they can with the ADs.

I would say, "Why would Rolex care"? They are in the business of selling watches. I buy one for me, one for my dad and one I give to my son or to a friend as a gift. I seriously doubt Rolex black lists anyone or would even take the time to do anything about this. If anything the AD might rethink future purchases.
