Las Vegas Grey Dealer?

I'm headed to Vegas in about 2 weeks, was wondering if you guys could point me in the direction of a few grey market dealers in Las Vegas? I'm looking at purchasing a preowned, hopefully I will (or should I say the wife) will win big and it pays for itself! Thanks in advance!

Woody,
I live in Vegas and I do not know of any "grey dealers".

There are probably more ADs and Rolex watches in hotels on the Strip than many small countries, and almost every jewelery store has used Rolex, but grey dealers selling new.....wish I could help

I'm not looking for new, in fact, I can't quite afford the new price tag so to speak. So, I am left with searching for a used one. I will be on the look out while I am there, but I don't think it will yield a watch due to the wife! But, I can always bug her and make her feel guilty! Ha! Ha! If you guys do have a store in mind let me know!

The Tower of Jewels comes to mind. Several locations close to the Strip..I have not dealt with them for a Rolex, but they have been In Vegas for decades and have not heard anything bad.

I'm in Georgia this week so not near a phone book, but look there for locations when you get into town.

Of course Tourneau is there and sells used, but I don't even set foot in the door - could give you a bench mark of highest prices though.

Good luck

Buying the watch with your winnings? Now that's the power of positive thinking!

I suggest you buy the watch before you start gambling.

That way you'll have something to pawn for bus fare home.
