Browsing watches on Hawaii
Just got back from Hawaii and had a blast.
Went to a couple of ADs and browsed watches of course. 1. Ben Bridge in Ala Moana Center, Oahu Wonderful service, knowledgeable staff, and huge inventory (especially Daytonas) 2. Rolex Boutique on Kalakaua Ave, Oahu Again excellent service, knowledgeable staff, and decent inventory Not surprising, Oahu Rolex ADs gave me the red carpet treatment. Very service oriented. 3. Barron Leeds in Whalers Village, Maui Nothing exceptional (good or bad) to say. 4. Barron Leeds in Shops at Wailea, Maui Pushy sales...and this made me laugh. "If you buy a WG GMT, then you will be allowed to buy a SS Daytona." 5. Honolulu Time near Ala Moana Center, Oahu Nice selection of used watches. 6. Omega on Kalakaua Ave, Oahu Sales lady was pleasant...but manager seemed rude and condescending. 7. 3rd floor Duty Free Shop, Oahu Hit or miss. Thought this information might be useful. I also took some pics of my watch on Big Island. Will post later. |

With their low sales tax, I should have bought something and saved thousands.
