Wierd, that's hardly any compared to what I normally see at my AD, is that all of the Sport models they have in the case?

Incredible! A Deepsea, LV Sub, GMT II C and a Yacht II all in the same window. Thanks for sharing.

yeah as far as i am aware. Most AD's in glasgow will usually have 2 or 3 at most ss sports models. Usually an explorer and the LV these days. sometimes an SD ,sub or last week I saw my 2nd GMT IIC in Glasgow in 6 months.
But nothing like that pic

Wow! That Deep Sea really looks huge in the middle of the pic!

mfer · 26 September 2008, 07:17 AM

That is messed up. Why doesn't the UK have the sport models????

That would be pathetic if that is all the sport models an AD would have even here in STL, which isn't a big Rolex town.

Good selection - as good as central London. But then Bournemouth has a very wealthy demographic so its not surprising that the AD is well stocked.

Typicaly a UK AD (outside of a big city) will have 2 or 3 professional models and then a lot of DJ's. The DJ is probably the biggest seller in the UK. Central London will often have more professional sports models, a ton of DJ's as well as the ultra bling models with diamonds, etc.

Just noticed a Daytona in that window - amazing !

Hookie · 26 September 2008, 07:43 AM

There's always next time...

Nice picture! My AD has less than this on dsisplay, only a small fraction of this. But, they have a complete line of sports watches in their safe, many of them are being offered to regulars who ask for them and yes, at much higher than MSRP.
