Rolex in Athens
Greetings fellow TRF’s.
I’m currently in Athens and despite my desire not to to relate everything to the big R, I wanted to ask if you know where I might find new/used Rolex watches. I’m looking for a SS 36 DJ... is it best to look for it at the AD or a certain boutique? Share your experience. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

In you're near central Athens there are various ADs in the immediate area in Kolonaki (around Syntagma and the National Garden). I haven't walked into a Rolex store in Greece in a few years, so I can't give you a sense of what inventory is like these days. Serkos is nice - I believe there is a Rolex boutique and another AD just down the street from it as well. In short, you could probably check out a few stores without sacrificing too much vacation time.

That's right! I forgot there are two separate Rolex stores right in the area.
Enjoy your stay in Athens. If you walk around Monastiraki (from where you're staying: 5 minute walk in the opposite direction of the stores above) make sure to grab a gyro from Sabbas. It's right next to the more popular Thanasis but much better. My family has an apartment right around there -- use to go to Sabbas every day for a quick bite during my summers there as a teen. Feel free to PM me if you want any local travel tips while you're in Athens. |
