Here some pics from the AD on Flagler in Miami (January 2006), bought my wifes TT YM with about 10% discount, we purchased & literally walk a couple of hundred yards around the corner & stumbled onto a grey dealer (B*chwalds). My eyes nearly popped right out of my head at the selection of high end watches, he was offering a "while you shop" dial change.

Didn't like to ask how much the YM would have been from him!!


The AD on Flagler

(You can see the space in theYM's where my wife's watch was sitting)

























The Grey Dealer























..and here's my wife's YM back at the hotel

Great pics Chris!!!
Congrats on the Lady's YM...and you did the right thing by not asking the second dealer's price...good man!!!! LOL
The 20% off sign is something I've NEVER seen at either of the AD's here in Hawaii.
I hope that when the new SS GMT II's hit in force...that they'll offer any kind of discount. I've fallen for that watch big time!!!

I have never seen a % off sign on ANY Rollie as any discount has been a quiet agreement with the dealer and the seller. In fact, I would not be surprised if that is a violation of the agreement between Rolex and its AD.

thank you very much for the pics. 20% off is too much . The pics are great. Is it prohibited to take pictures ?

I shouldn't think so, the AD said it was fine to take souvenir pics (although we hadn't paid at the time as they were removing a couple of links), I didn't ask the Grey guy, he just looked at me as if he was busy to be bothered as I fired away, lol

Thanks for a great set of pics, Chris!! Excellent stuff. Now how about some nice close-ups of the wifey's gorgeous YM?

Thanks once again - JJ
