What does it cost to have a shop unit in that terminal? No keys for the stock, no stock to sell. What an indictment of a screwed up capital market. Unreal.
Im sure they will have found the keys if you offered to buy that diamond encrusted model for 98,000, arrogant attitude of the company. Buy an alternative
“We can’t sell you a watch because we don’t have keys to the cases!” That’s possibly the lamest 💩 excuse ever for not showing, handling or selling watches. Especially at an international airport AD location. Everyone capable of entering the store is going somewhere. They must have boarding passes and have passed security. That’s REALLY hard to establish a preferred/exclusive customer base when every possible customer is coming or going. You don’t live in Dubai and decide I’m going to go buy an airplane ticket so I can go to the Rolex store and buy a watch. Ridiculous.
around a week ago i was there. Nobody cares on any customer, even i was searching to get eye contact. Finally a Filipino lady from around 10m distance looked at me. She slowly started to move my direction. From around 7-8m distance i have started to as her about available Rolex. She stopped to walk toward me me and just said nothing available, and stand still, not a single step further. Just stopped walking. Her face was showing no respect to someone who actually willing to spend USD 20k for a watch. Im not sure, is it my me who has a problem? Or the brand has a problem? From my experience , visited many Rolex boutiques: from out of 10 different shop visits, i can say that maybe 2 boutiques was welcoming and entertaining my questions. The rest not even border to talk, or to chat.
A classic Niko watch shopping vid!!! Been a minute since we had one! I bet if you’d taken that gaudy DD off their hands, they’d have found the keys pretty quick. Hope all is well with you. Safe travels!!
FFS! Rolex are just wankers! I have experienced this - nothing for sale and can't try anything on, so just walk out - - - with my dignity!!! Screw them!
I would recommend wearing a high-end rolex watch, and pairing with a nice outfit if you would like a chance at being selected to purchase any of those rolex watches!
The AD which you purchased the high-end Rolex would have already contacted and offered you another Rolex watch. You don't need to wear your premium Rolex with a nice outfit to be offered to buy one elsewhere.
Nice video! I'm in Switzerland now flying home through Dubai in 5 days. Was hoping to try my luck through the airport but my flight lands In Dubai at around midnight!! Hopefully you have some good luck in Europe!
Hello dubaiexpat, I’m going to Dubai next week and I’m planning to buy Omega Seamaster in blue or Speedmaster hesalite. Should I buy it at the airport duty free or the Dubai Mall? Thank you and I really like your videos❤
Nothing. just walked in with my family and when we met an SA. My teenaged son told him that I was looking for a sport model of Rolex. And, then he looked on me a few seconds and told me that he has a 43 mm of SD. When I said OK, I wanted that one. He asked me to wait for a moment as he went to somewhere and got back to me with that angel. Can’t believe that it was very easy. FYI, we just got back from Switzerland where we visited several ADs there and was not successful to get a Rolex there. or, even in my Bangkok where we lived, the local ADs just put me on a request list and I have never gotten a call.
@@TheDubaiExpat Do they have a decent selection there? I live in Vegas, I get calls weekly about watches, but i think they will be a tad cheaper in Dubai. Thanks for the info bro
Rolex , Omega e Grand Seiko , são as marcas mais confiáveis do mundo , trazendo qualidade e elegância em todos os modelos , um sofisticado acabamentos com linhas extremamente sincronizadas ❤
I gave up trying to buy Rolex pieces in Dubai a while ago as it’s impossible. My local AD in Europe has so many pieces for sale in the window and I myself picked up a GMT Master II Zombie from the window last month whilst walking past. I’ve seen other ADs in other countries with over 110 pieces for sale in the window including platinum pieces, GMT etc. So that’s why I don’t bother trying to buy in Dubai now.
I love the style of Rolex but the fact you can't even buy one at this AD is quite funny. I can walk into any Seiko try on any watch i want buy it and walk straight out. Its kinda like rolex just have stores and give you the middle finger if you dont look rich .
Yo tengo un rolex submariner no Date y es mejor mi omega no entiendo todo este drama de rolex lo que pasara es, que la gente se cansara y no les comprara más su producto. Mi gran seiko es mejor que mi rolex En acabado y belleza. El marketing de rolex por el momento puede ser que les funcione pero nada dura para siempre si quiero algo mejor me compro un patek o un ulices nardin freak. Mi familia siempre a tenido rolex y créanme no son la gran cosa.
they do this in all stores it makes no sence. they literaly have stores just to tell you your not good enougth to own 1 lmao . im gonna buy a clone for £200 fuck them lmao
Allocation of production is by square footage and weighted by prominence. All the airport locations are owned by larger groups and as such the extra product goes to the AD “preferred flipper” and all the two tone and iced out junk that nobody wants goes to the airport store. Airport has good security, so you staff it with a couple of minimum wage flunkies and you’re set.
Put the camera away and you'll be treated better lol. I walked into to the Rolex in Amsterdam airport and talked to the lady, showed her my Omega as the first and only watch I own, and I was considering a Rolex, and she was ready to sell me a Sky Dweller. I'm not a flipper and I have no idea what those are worth so I passed, but she liked me.

AD WASTE OF TIME. In my se Asia country, absolutely every single rolex goes out the side door to a dealer with a fat envelope in return. So prices remain high. I've turned to fun activity of hunting for rare vintage rolex. So this AD stuff is fine. Shocked me at first.. But I don't want a flood of rolex anyways. Keeps them special. No problem.

Wait a minute, no keys to the drawer ? At 3min mark into the video- What a lame excuse
They probably judge base off the watch he’s wearing
I was offered some watch maybe cause o was wearing my panda
@@dinhtran-ld4hzor the fact he’s video taping everything 😂
@@AndyNick211 yeah probably. Just put 100 dollar on the counter
so what did they offer you?
The way you stop this business tactics is to stop purchasing Rolex and move to other brands.
Or a superclone.. Since most experts need to open them to confirm, it means clones are up to par.
Eventually most will. Trends move around.
The Omegas are much nicer anyway. 😊
No Way!!!!

Rolex are being ridiculous at this point 🤣🤣 keep ur watches .. ill spend my money at omega every day 😜
More lies by the Rolex AD! More excuses not to sell you a watch, they have a safe full of Rolex watches, but only for VIP Buyers!
I agree, they lie about everything! Shame on them!
The are best marketers in the world. You want what you cant uave.
@@BobbyDazzler888 Yes, excellent marketing for all the dummies!😂
What's the point having a Rolex outlet at an Airport can't buy any,stupid this is why people are moving away from the brand
Sold all mine, won't ever buy another.

It’s fascinating to see how R is able to create a sense of scarcity, given that 80% of the model variants are not desirable at all.
I would recommend wearing a high-end rolex watch, and pairing with a nice outfit if you would like a chance at being selected to purchase any of those rolex watches!
The AD which you purchased the high-end Rolex would have already contacted and offered you another Rolex watch. You don't need to wear your premium Rolex with a nice outfit to be offered to buy one elsewhere.
I got offered a rose gold skydweller on rubber strap in Zurich airport 2 weeks ago.
Watches r cheaper at dxb airport right compared to buying from the mall
Nice video! I'm in Switzerland now flying home through Dubai in 5 days. Was hoping to try my luck through the airport but my flight lands In Dubai at around midnight!!
Hopefully you have some good luck in Europe!
Wouldn’t it be easier to get Rolex in its Swiss hometown?
@@Colonel.B.Sanders Tried 2 AD's to no prevail
How is it not just embarrassing to stand as an employee in that Rolex store. People enquire and you just tell them no all day…. Fun job 🤦🏼♂️
Submariner at Dutyfree shop is my favourite vlog always. Have a safe and pleasant journey.
Thank you Niko.
Love your vids. There's always a nice, light optimistic to them that I appreciate.
I absolutely love your videos and commentary...look forward to all of your works!!!!
Those Seamasters at the 9.03 mark are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
great video niko, we need to catch up when you back in dubai its been too long buddy :)
I prefer choose your panerai than a rolex🤣😍
Hello dubaiexpat, I’m going to Dubai next week and I’m planning to buy Omega Seamaster in blue or Speedmaster hesalite. Should I buy it at the airport duty free or the Dubai Mall? Thank you and I really like your videos❤
airport duty free + ask for discount
@@TheDubaiExpat thank you. You’re the best!
Btw have you seen the new omega speedmaster in white there? I’m also considering that one.
I am lucky to get a Sea Dweller from Dubai airport shop.
how did you manage?

How much does Omega watch cost in Dubai 234.30.41.21.01.001?
I’m going to dubai for 2 weeks soon for work, where is the head place to go watch shopping? I only buy direct from ADs
Dubai Mall

Always love to see at Dubai Dutyfree shopping. Love and respect from Dubai❤
i would like to.value a watch that values its potential customers... unavailable displayed rolexes is another way of saying "you are unworthy"
Right on point! 👍
Buy something else. People just want what they cant have
Always enjoy. When will you and Mr. Cauliflower do another auction. Take care.
A380 then 777 wing? interesting 🤣
Great video! Which cities will you be visiting?
love these shopping series
Happy Watch Shopping in Zürich :)

I might try next time wearing a more classy outfit.
Stylish Vlogs. Really enjoying
Love your Panerai!!!!
No love lost, all datejust r sinking faster than the Titan
Msrp is reality when buying new for all watches eventually
Yet another Rolex museum! 😆
You must really have a small wrist, always liking 36mm
This is why we are all turning to super clones or Grand Seikos. F#&k Rolex.
They use Tudor to fund the crown, refuse to buy Tudor, rather do a purchase at Omega❤
Can you bargain to buy th Tudor o omega ??
I think you can ask for discount, yes
Would have been nice to see other brand watches that were actually for sale.why do you show us the ones that are not for sale.
So he doesn't have to buy them.. He doesn't have money.
ROLEX BEST OF THE BEST WATCH ❤
Screw them . Can see cannot buy . What is so great about Rolex . A shop not selling Rolex but only to see . Close shop then.
Great video (y) Very interesting (y)
I’m curious. What question does Rolex have to pass the test?
they cant find the key...riiiiight....sure sure
xD

No stock, they should close store

What is the test? LOL
Pass the test? 🤣

The only worthy part of Rolex is the crown
Rolex are a disgrace
Give me one ur old watch..!
Tomorrow
About "pass the test" - this shit has to stop - it's a watch not the formula to eternal youth!
They don’t have the keys to the drawer BULSHIITTTT

@@stuartclubb4302wow. Makes total sense. So who buys those two tone fuglies?
