Never seen so many Rolex's in the wild!

I'm at a nice hotel in Tenerife and I've seen so far sparkling in the sun!

2 x Deep-Sea
1 x solid gold GMT IIc
1 x solid gold day date
1 x ss GMT IIC
1 x TT date just

And of course my sea-dweller.

You should visit Hong Kong. Every block literally has at least 3 Rolex ADs.

Agreed. You wouldn't be able to keep count of Rolexes spotted in the Middle or Far East.

Enjoy the holiday though! We've still got thick snow here in North Wales at the moment!!

Couldn't agree with you more. I live in HK. Combination of AD and Boutiques and other jewelry stores believe there are over 20 official Rolex distributor/shop.

I was in Monaco last fall. Could not even count the Rolexes. There were also a ton of AP's. Seemed like the younger crowd was all wearing them.

my parents went to monaco and all they told me about were $50 burgers, probably would've been more interested if they told me everyone was wearing watches of greatness!

I did not have the $50 burger, but I did have a couple $36 martinis at the Hotel de Paris.

Well they are one of the biggest selling Swiss watches, and today there must be many many many millions of Rolex watches in this world today.
