Rolex AD Sidney Thomas Newark, DE CLOSING

[samson66]

Found out when I picked up my Datejust 41 a few weeks ago that my longtime favorite AD Sidney Thomas is closing their doors at the end of the year. This is the shop located in Christiana Mall in Newark, DE for any DC/Balt/Philly area folks on the forum.

They've always been good to me. They are a family run company and have been gradually closing all their stores over the last few years. This is the final one I believe.

I talked to the SA for a bit about it and he says it's simply that the family is ready to retire. They aren't getting pushed out by Rolex or anything. He says he believes another jeweler will be taking over the Rolex contract but not sure who or if it will be in the mall or another location.

Bummer for sure. As we all know it takes years to build up that AD "relationship" and when they close it's sort of like starting over from scratch. Hopefully all the sales associates can hook up with the new place or another outfit.

They are running some good (non-Rolex) sales right now in preparation for closing.

Thank you to our valued customers for your years of loyalty and support.
