Let me say up front, this is not a question about buying a Rolex, new or used. I'm curious if there are any recommendations for someone wishing to simply look at pieces or see a bit of history. I've read about the "Rolex experience" exhibit/museum inside of the Rolex store at Wynn. Is that worth seeing? Anything else to consider?

The Wynn Rolex boutique (WOS) has zero items and they are not the friendliest group of SAs.

They do have a nice display of pre-owned pieces via Analog Shift which was recently acquired by The Watches of Switzerland Group.

Some places you could visit:

WoS - Wynn (I personally like this experience the best for viewing but not necessarily for purchasing)
Tourneau - Forum Shops (Caesars) - Might actually see some used pieces.
Tesorini (Bellagio) - no comment
Rolex Boutique at The Shops at Crystals (Near Aria / Cosmo) - Pretty empty, but cool Patek Boutique next door.

RM & AP also at Crystals with Belluso at the Grand Canal Shops (Venetian) for alternative brands.

In terms of the exhibit/museum, can't comment as I didn't see it during their 'construction' but I'm sure there are a number of locals who can comment.

Good luck!

Tourneau - Forum Shops (Caesars) , sales at this location are liars! I had terrible experience with them, will never shop again!

The museum is interesting but if you linger and read everything it'll take 15 minutes to get through. If you're not staying close by I can't say it's worth a lengthy walk to see it.

Ok, thanks for the input. It sounds like Watches of Switzerland is worth checking out independent of any Rolex content. Will just see what happens from there...

Thanks!

I was in Vegas last month. Checked out Rolex AD in Aria and Wynn. Both stores combined had ZERO watches. I would not waste time visiting them unless you are staying at Aria or Wynn.

The Omega store in Bellagio is pretty cool. Other than that, like others have said, Tourneau at Caesars and Breitling at Venetian can kill some time.

Whatever happened to the dedicated Rolex store at the Forum Shops connected to Caesars Palace?
Last time I was in there there was a guard right at the entrance with what had to be the biggest, ugliest 44 magnum ever made on a holster.

Better off roaming in the casinos. Lot's of beautiful watches on peoples wrist.
