Rolex in St Thomas
Just back from a few weeks at our winter home in St Thomas VI
A H Rise is a great AD there. They had a great selection of Rolex watches but not the heavy hitters like SS Daytona or Green Millgaus. They are ready to do some heavy discounts.....The economy has really taken a toll in St Thomas. The Island depends very much on tourism.....Hotels and cruise ships are running around 70% in season.....The stores are seeing some traffic but not like the good old days when the jewelers were 3 to 4 deep with customers buying away watches, diamonds, and other jewelery. If you have the cash St Thomas has the deals! Esp on ROLEX and other luxery goods.

Thanks for the heads up!
I just got back from St. Martin. The had a good amount of watches but no GV, SS Daytona, or DSSD in the case. The owner told me he had some SS Daytona's in the back but you had to buy a gold Rolex first. My response was .... "those days are long gone". And then informed him I just bought one under MSRP. |

I agree St. Thomas is a great place to buy a Rolex. Got a good deal on my SS Rolex 16610.. AH Rise had the deals.

I bought my 16610 there last year and saved a great deal of money. Do you think that they ship to the US?
