I managed to get a 2016 Hulk with the AD receipt from 28Watches in Causeway Bay. I paid 147,000 which was including a 2% charge for paying by card. I am quite happy that it is an authentic piece but will have a little stress when I get it checked over in the UK haha

I’m sure it will all check out and I will be back to see them next time!

seems like a bargain, with box and papers?

What's that, like £15,000?

Congrats :)

Roughly around £14,800 which is the going rate over there it would appear.

That seems like a lot of ADs a while back. Perhaps Rolex is just cutting back on the AD number there as they seem to be doing everywhere else.

Damn, and I was getting my hopes up. :(

I was also planning on visiting this year after being gone for a few years.

Is it the same just like the States where if you get talking and you click with the seller they might actually give you something or do the ADs go straight the the gray dealers and VIP only (which are pretty much the gray dealers LOL) like before?

Also does anyone know if you can purchase a jubilee bracelet separate in Hong Kong? I have the Pepsi with the Oyster and was wondering if they would sell me just a the bracelet?

Bundling is the norm with the AD games in Hong Kong. The two big jewellers AD (i.e. the two Chows') and any Rolex + Tudor store will give you the hint to do some kind of bundling when you show interest.
