Rolex website reviews

The Rolex website is well designed and fun to scroll through. It would be perfect if there was a ‘add to cart’ button, enter your credit card number and then wait for the package,

Haha that’s like 1970s pricing.

That dollar amount and the batgirl don’t belong together.

I wish we had any prices on the Rolex website for the UAE

However the retail prices are slightly lower in Abu Dhabi compared to Dubai, so….that explains why they are missing. Different distributor…..

That would be nice but if they did that and the watches were readily available then you would be able to buy Grey for a discount.

Not as crazy as you think. Omega sells direct. However, I think you can get a discount at a dealer.

Keep it boutique.
Pricing is on par if not slightly high for an all stainless watch.

omega's business model is living proof that hype and scarcity sells. their displays are full and regular people are still only lining up for rolexes despite omegas being great watches. i don't think rolex will be taking any pages out of omega's book tbh

Great idea and there should be a “enter discount code” option at checkout. If there is a BLACKFRIDAY10 discount code, I may consider purchasing a Daytona.

Not a rant but the part that upsets me the most is the inquire with AD to buy tag line. Almost as awesome as the Mayors billboards I’ll see in FL displaying a watch that for at least me is nearly impossible to get at Mayors.
