Do Rolex Stores in Vegas ever have hard to get watches?

Have you ever been to a Rolex store in Vegas and found a new SS Daytona, or recent Rolex release like a GMT Batman or the new Skydweller.

What are the chances that they even have the Oysterflex Daytonas in White gold?

Going there in November. Am I dreaming that i will find one of the above ?

I’ve seen the Batman and Hulk models along with a Daytona or two (not ceramic) on multiple visits. But I’ve also rocked up to nothing but DD and OPs. I’d recommend you call around in advance. See what they can arrange for you. The Torneau dealer in the Shops at Caesar’s told me that a two week notice can get just about anything...

I just contacted an AD in Las Vegas looking for a new ss Daytona. I actually purchased a BLNR back in May after only two weeks on the wait list. He said that the new ss Daytona are impossible to get right now. Even for the big boutiques in Vegas. If you want to buy from an AD at MSRP, you are goung to have to wait a while. His guess was at least a year.

I've never been to Rolex store in LV

If they have the Daytona in SS, it will generally not be on display and held for VIP clients or for clients in wait lists

Prob same for skydweller and SD43

They may have Batman on display and for sale and prob will have the Daytona oysterflex there as well

NY has one of the largest selections but even they don't have Daytona or skydweller on display

Check out the Rolex store at the Wynn.

I ran out of time to visit on my trip last month, but I did see a BLNR previously.

I just returned from LV on Friday and went to all 5 Rolex points. The only special piece I saw was at Tesorini at the Bellagio. TT Skydweller. They all had waiting lists for the stainless/white gold Sky Dwellers and Sub Lvc. I didn't pay attention to the Daytona inventory as much, but I assure you there won't be an available ceramic stainless model to be had.

Few months back, while visited Vegas, we dropped by a few Rolex ADs, none had SD43, it seems that they only received a few SD43. They were cool to check out but I didn't buy anything from them.

Was in Vegas a month a go and shops at Caesars had a SD43. I have a feeling that one of the shops there will have what you are looking for. But I would start at the Wynn.

I see BLNRs and Skydwellers regularly and saw a new Daytona in Honolulu last May, as well as several others in Vegas in June. These really aren't rare pieces and can be had for the asking with a little legwork.

I saw Batman at the Wynn boutique this past Friday.

What a fabulous shop with very accommodating and friendly staff - if you stop in make sure to check out the museum in the back!

I stopped by Torneau and the boutique last week (Caesars?) and neither had anything "in demand" just the usual subs, OP, Daytonas. I fell in love with the 116509 blue face, but left without it. I'll buy it used and save $15K.

I was staying at the Wynn a couple of weeks back and met an Australian who had won 140k so decided to buy a gold yacht master 11.

It got me thinking, I'm fairly sure if a high roller was staying there and wanted a Daytona the casino host would get it.

Luxury Swiss the boutique in Miami had everything but the SS Daytonas. This place has several of the models you mention above. It's a serious AD with 2 super professional polite salespersons.
