Rolexes in Disney World!

So me & the family are in the magic kingdom for the week. The weather's been great so far; still humid & hot but tolerable. Only brought my SubC to the trip.

So far, I've seen a Daytona, GMT Pepsi, Airking, & SubND. I love it!!!!

Welcome. If you were here on Monday and Tuesday you should have loved it. Another month and we're shutting the A/C off. Then 5 or 6 months of delight.

I usually see a Daytona each time I'm there and a few LV's even. Lots of Cartier and Omega's there. Was there Saturday and will be going back this Sat. Let me know if you want to meet up.

Once saw a YG Bvulgari Chrono there on a black strap. One of the nicest watches to see.

The classic watch spotting to pass the time while standing in line.

Lol! I was just in Disney last week and I was on a watch hunting expedition through all 4 theme parks :) saw many gems in the wild even an ROC. I'm glad I'm not the only one because my wife thinks im nuts staring at strangers wrists oh well is it that or the fact I go to Disney 2x a year and have no kids lol

Instead of a Texas Timex, a Rolex should be called a Disney Timex. We are heading to Disneyland Sunday and I always see tons of Rolex watches standing in line.

I'm at Disney about 3-4x a year. I always see Rolex there. If you go to the Food and Wine festival at Epcot (starts this weekend) you will see plenty.
I might go next week just to pig out. If you are staying at one of the Disney resorts you get the extra hours when hardly anyone is there.

Excellent Rolex sightings! Maybe you will see a President in the wild.

I bet if you start looking you will see a bunch of Mickey & Mini Mouse watches too.

HAVE A GREAT TIME!
