How about this for a change?

Instead of the usual horror stories about Rolex ADs and Grey dealers, and all the PTSD associated with them, how about this for a change: tells us your great experiences, being with ADs or GDs, being in getting your Rolex, or simply while searching for…

New Black Bay 58 GMT

Just a rant here and I know it's probably been said before. I feel the grey market has been the problem with obtaining a Rolex for a long while now.

Vintage Rolex Accuracy

I recently added a Mark V 1675 GMT Master to my collection, partly because I’ve always loved the 1675, but also because I’ve heard such great things about Rolex’s legendary vintage movements – like the 1570/1575.

I actually wasn’t expecting too much i…

Let’s just imagine…

…that you won the grand prize of a charity event organized by Rolex, and the prize is ANY watch you choose from their line-up, in or off catalog, regardless of its value, the only caveat being that you can NEVER sell it, not even your heirs, it will …

Finally got it home and it’s staying 16710

The end of a 6 wk search for the one I wanted but did not pick up back in 2004-06. I ended up with a 16613, 16610, and I got the 16570 over the 16710 as I figured who needs four Rolex watches😂😂😂. Also the expII white dial made more sense, blue, black…
