New Vegas boutique is now open.

Spent the last 6 days in Vegas. Didn’t have a chance to get there early in the trip but I got there yesterday. It’s very well appointed with Rolex design. They opened up last Monday apparently. They had full stock on all SS models and it was all sold in a few days. It's at the Crystal Shops in the Aria.
Mr Bruno Mars was in the shop looking for a greed DD.
When I was there they had a decent selection from the other ADs I had visited that morning. By far they were the nicest, engaging compared to the others as well.

Looks like the shop at Bellagio. Been a while though, so not positive on location.

That's really cool if they'd have all SS models at opening. Not necessarily the best business decision on their part since they will most likely go to scalpers, but still.

I was in Vegas the week before it opened and was staying at Aria. I walked by it a couple times. I called last week a couple days after they opened and the salesperson told me they had a line of 10 + people from 8am on opening day and confirmed they had all SS models in the case(minus SS Dayontas) and that they sold out in a day and they already have lists for all the hot SS models. Crazy. Not sure if its true but thats what I was told.

I was there just a few weeks ago and walked by. I wished it was open when I was there. The AP boutique is just a few doors down too. It was nice.

There was none when I was there.
Had some PM Daytonas, WG YMII, DDs, the new roman DJ and other DJs.

Had a nice chat with the guy in there as well.
He was saying that AP is getting rid of all AD and going boutique only.

Also had a long conversation with the lady at JLC in the form shops.

All the locals would have queued up 30 min before opening and rushed in to grab 1 or 2 SS models. Ive been to an opening before of a store and it was a bullrush...The store clerks had told their best clients to show up early and hold back a few of the hot models.

Great, this is the last thing my wife will want to hear lol.

We'll be staying at Aria a few weeks from now. I'm not that much into the whole shopping at Crystals thing, but now I have an incentive.

The store is Luxury Jewelers located at The Shops at Crystals (1st floor).

This is how it looked like the Friday I was there.

This place is great. Stop by there last week too and chatted with Krikor(sales rep). He was nice and very attentive. Hook me up with a Rolex magazine-EXP II issue.

You should bring 10K and double down at a table...that's what I would do...either you go home with a free watch or you lose 10K (which is expected anyway).

You'll get a free complimentary room :)

BTW, by coincidence, Aria has always been very good to me at the blackjack table.

But of course now that I've spoken of it, I've jinxed myself.

Yes, but these are brand-new empty cases! They still smell new too!
