Anyone own or manage a Rolex AD?

Hi all,

Just as the title says, was hoping to pick the brain of someone who owns or manages a Rolex AD. Nothing too serious, but being in Hawai'i the only ADs we have here is Ben Bridge (not a fan) and Kaimana Kea (also not a fan).

Thanks all - Sammy

Not sure I've seen any regular posters here who admit to eitehr managing or owning and AD. There have been a few here from time to time but they don't stick around. plenty of trusted sellers though, and I'm sure you could hook-up with a mainland AD if you wanted to. LA, Santa Barbara, San Jose/SF?

Jump onto the "ask an insider" thread, you probably can get an answer to your question there.

I seem to recall someone here who worked in an AD. Not sure what position he held but posted often about the job and insider info. That was about 2-3 years ago. For the life of me I cant remember who it was.
