Just got a call from my local AD. They have been a dealer for over 30 years. They received a letter saying, thanks for playing, your cancelled. Pretty sucky for them, and me. Had a SS Daytona on order with them.

bigwatchman · 10 January 2012, 07:54 AM

Did you have a deposit on it? Hope you get it worked out.

nauticajoe · 10 January 2012, 07:54 AM

Sorry to hear. Why not get in touch with the reputable sellers here?

I see you are in NY; what AD was given the boot? Is it a NYC-Metro or Upstate New York location?

Lion · 10 January 2012, 07:56 AM

Oh well...find another AD and start all over!!!

Art 1 · 10 January 2012, 08:02 AM

That's the deal now. Going to get interesting.

Maybe he doesn't want to pay a premium...?

Thaiguy · 10 January 2012, 08:15 AM

Hopefully it is not Morre Lyons across the river. They are great people. I bought my SS Daytona from them last year.

Yes, Please share......

Wolfgang427 · 10 January 2012, 11:24 AM

Nothing new has been going on for a while now.

Hate to say it but Rolex is screwing up taking out the ADs that have been there for them all these years.

Goes to show you loyality means nothing to them,

very sad indeed.

Yeah Im interested too as I am a fellow new yorker... Thanks...

B. Doggy · 10 January 2012, 12:43 PM

You'll find another. My favorite brands all seem to be moving closer to the boutique model.

liptonnr · 10 January 2012, 12:46 PM

Bad news! I am sure you can get the same one right here from a trusted seller!

Never forget..... as was said in the movie Wall Street..... "it is all about bucks, kid, the rest is just conversation."

VetteBandit · 10 January 2012, 01:12 PM

Bummer. Sorry to hear that. Plenty of good sources to find your Daytona. Good luck with the hunt!

FeelingTheBlues · 10 January 2012, 01:54 PM

That's unfortunate indeed, good luck on trying to find a Daytona elsewhere.

In NYC we only have 3 AD's (Wempe, William Bartham and Tourneau) those choices are really slim so I don't believe it was one of those 3 that got their AD liscense stripped.

It's only business never personal

Sorry to hear. I'm sure you will get another chance at a daytona elsewhere.

Fifth Ave Rolex Man · 12 January 2012, 02:29 PM

We are curious to what NY AD lost Rolex . . .

rolepam312 · 12 January 2012, 02:45 PM

I'm.afraid that will be the fate of most AD's out there...the days of discounts and personal.relationship is history....while a rolex boutique experience will be outstanding, we will all pay the required premium for the privilege....welcome to the new order....it's the rolex way or the highway...

Watch Professor · 12 January 2012, 03:04 PM

who?

azguy · 13 January 2012, 01:12 AM

I guess the OP disappeared

I hate when that happens

MoBe · 13 January 2012, 02:24 AM

Sapper has lost interest in Rolex,maybe.?

I`m still trying to figure out why a prestgious chain of jewelry stores here no longer sell Rolex watches.

COBill · 13 January 2012, 11:25 AM

Read the other thread - Rolex has been cancelling ADs,

We realize this, but there has not been much mention of the NYC Metro or NY locations, which is why we are interested in which dealer the OP dealt with.

Oh well. It must have been an upstate location, in which case, it is not surprising (it would be hard to believe any Long Island Locations would close)
