Newbie & looking for deals in SoCal
Hello to all the fine forumers here!
My wife & I are looking into buying our first Rolex (what's the plural? ). I currently have 3 Tag Heuers whle she has 2. She is eyeing a new SS Oyster Perpetual with silver face, pink dials & engine-turned bezel while I am interested in a new Explorer. We live in Temecula, California and we do have a Ben Bridge at the local mall. However, I was told by the store manager himself that they don't discount their Rolex Can anybody suggest an AD within the Los Angeles, Orange or San Diego Counties that would: a). Give discounts be it small like 5% or free tax or similar b). Offer NO INTEREST Financing too (maybe 1 yr) Is this doable? Thanks in advance for any leads. |

Why not buy out of state and have shipped? That's what I did and saved over 400 bucks on tax.
I'm sure someone on here could steer you to a respectable AD outside of CA |

Welcome to the forum! Is there a Jared's there in your area? I know they often offer 12mo no interest financing. Good luck!

Get a cheap ticket and come up to Portland. I can get you 10% off on both of those Rolex and no sales tax in Oregon! Would be definitely worth the trip.
Just say no to Ben Bridge! |

Thanks for the warm welcome Lol-x, veilstylez, 904L addict, kcmo & KansaiVet.
@veilstylez - I called your AD and contact person is off today. I will try tomorrow. PM'ed you back. @904L - Out-of-state is definitely interesting, but I don't know about the "no interest" financing though. I hate taking a big chunk out of the savings - it's already there, why take it out @kcmo - They do have a few Jared's here but they told me that all California branches DO NOT carry Rolex. @KansaiVet - Hmmmm...I will look into it. Thanks! Keep em coming. I am still waiting for a few more leads |

Or... The other option is Tourneau. Very reputable AD. I hate to send them business because some of the sales people there are stuck up, but they are offering 24 months no interest financing right now until the end of this month. I am sure you can get a discount off MSRP and not pay tax if you negotiate. The models you are looking for are readily available so discounts should not be a problem. |

I called Tourneau last night and they do offer 24-month no interest financing which will end on the 31st of October. Tourneau has a few branches in SoCal but the South Coast Plaza and the Century City branches are the ONLY ones that carry the Rolex brand (FYI for you newbs like me). Ofcourse I got the usual "we don't give discounts on Rolex" BS Tourneau Also found out about Hing Wa Lee. I am not sure if they are an AD, but they do negotiate Hing Wa Lee |
