In any forum I frequent there's no such thing as a "simple form search." I just did a search on "Bob's Watches" and "Bobs Watches" and the results were mostly worthless.

I'm a big fan of going to google and simply including site:rolexforums.com in the search. Much better for searching phrases in quotes, or words under 5 letters.

Bobs watches is reputable. Better deals are to be found here on the forum though. My recommendation is to search the trusted sellers here and compare prices. You can deal with confidence with both. Good luck.

They are overpriced and arrogantly so. I live in Calif and would never buy from them. High priced plus sales tax. Ugh.

I was looking at a GMT Root Beer last week and it was gone yesterday, so that might partially answer your question. |

Below is the reply I got today. after i emailed the same day I started this post
Hello Phill,
Thank you for inquiring with Bob’s. We do ship to Australia however, our three day satisfaction guarantee period is voided for international purchases. It is against strict Rolex regulations for a watch to come back into the US through customs. Let me know if there is anything else I can further assist you with. Best, Victoria |

Hardly Someone you would want to take a risk on? unless you lived in the same country or in 3 days driving distance. I have returned silver bullion back to America-I wonder why you cannot return a watch?

Because Rolex USA does to allow for importation of Rolex and watch could be subject to confiscation. Plenty of posts on this subject!!
