Vegas / Rolex

I'm in Vegas for vacation and it was recommended to me to stop by the boutique at the Wynn which was great! I then checked out the one at the Bellagio, which was also great..

However the reason for my post is that there seems to be 2 dealers inside Ceasers palace? When I checked the rolex website, they were not listed as AD's? One was tourneau. My mom was looking at a ladies 28mm, it seemed to have severe stretch (at least I thought so). They were selling it as new, as a note. Just curious on others thoughts on this.

Are you sure it wasn't from their estate showcase and the salesrep didn't know and really didn't care enough to make sure? Stretch would be a sign that it is not new. Did you ask for a second opinion?

If it’s not on the website they are not a ad and I would stay clear of that new old stock datejust probably from 1992 tourneau is bottom of the barrel

I know what you're talking about. I was there recently and there are 2 Rolex dealers in the forum shops. One is Torneau and there was another one much smaller in almost an alley setup that says it's a boutique. Interesting indeed.

I think you're referring to Roman Times.

If the watch is indeed new then they should have all the papers, etc. to prove it. Based on what you've said though, sounds like it isn't the case. Stretch on a jubilee bracelet is pretty telling of use.

Just out of curiosity, let us know what inventory is like at Wynn and Bellagio? Last time I was there (a few months ago) the stock was sadly underwhelming.

No this place only sold Rolex......I believe this is it, I found the picture on the internet:



The watches were all new, and it's all Rolex. And they told me they are a boutique. Tried on a platinum dd36 actually here.

The location is actually this....

Both the Tourneau and the Hyde Park Boutique in the Forum Shops are listed as ADs on the Rolex website.

Oh my bad... I didn't understand that you were saying they only sold Rolex. I think they have or had a location in Scottsdale as well.

Tourneau were an official Rolex AD in Caesars when I first went in 2002 - they still are. The other one opened a few years later.

I didn’t buy but Tourneau offered to part ex mine back then, so presumably they sell pre owned.

It was not priced as a pre-owned; thats for sure. I still don't see either shop listed on Rolex's website.

Very Interesting, as a note on the stretch, I'm not an expert but it just seemed like a lot of stretch.
