    I am an ex emirates employee. Back in 2015 I used to see submariners lined up for sale. During my crib break I used to finish my food quickly just to go around and check watches out. If ever i knew that Rolex market would be so messed up, I would have saved up and bought one. Now I can easily afford a Rolex but I can’t find them in AD. What a tragedy 😩.
    Thanks for your airport videos, always reminds me of the days I used to work there, day in day out 12 hour shifts. Lot of memories.

    @BAF605 9 месяцев назад +30

    Always worth expressing interest in display only watches. I bought two exhibition Datejusts over the last year. Just a tip. Don't ask outright to buy but engage the SA and show him/her how much you like the watch. Dubai airport is probably going to be one of the last places on Earth to feel the recession but it is happening. Thanks for the update.

    Nowadays playing hard to get is marketing 101 at major colleges, that's what they teach to build a brand just try walking into Luis vouton, channel, Hilton hotels etc... but deep inside they are dying for our TLC (i.e. US$). May I suggest to stop asking about Rolex anymore and just focus on the brands that do like us!! let those girls play among themselves... don't get me wrong.

    I don’t think you can find ADs/Boutiques located inside airports selling AP, PP, or VC. Not even in DXB, HKG, SIN, LHR, or JFK. These brands are on another level catering to a niche market.

    Really enjoyed this update please don't stop doing these videos they are very useful. I've switched off on Rolex, not because they want me to beg for a watch, I switched off because they are now way over priced for what you get even if you could buy at retail. My new omega is very nice and I'm happy with the price for what I received.

    If its Rolex and the hands are set to 10:10 then it’s display only. If they are random time the they are a real watch. The only way to stop it at that time would be to pull out the crown to time setting position or if it’s non functional display model.

    @hamzamojo 8 месяцев назад

    Watching this video floods me with nostalgia. It was in this very store that I acquired my inaugural Rolex timepiece, which marked the beginning of a collection that has grown over the years. Specifically, it was the Rolex OP 39 114300 Rhodium Dial, a model that has since been discontinued. Remarkably, it continues to hold a special place in my heart and, coincidentally, I'm currently sporting it as I compose this comment. I've never had the same stroke of luck when visiting this or other Rolex boutiques located in airports since that memorable purchase.

  • @bigdaveo397

    Very nice video. I travel through Dubai on the way to and from Jakarta and my first stopover point tends to be the Irish pub for a nice cold pint of Guinness after 12 hours in the air! 😂 However when I do look at the watches, I usually look for a nice Grand Seiko or a Tudor. Rolex isn't quite my style, however it seems to be just as frustrating getting a Rolex want there as it is anywhere else.

    @oceanocean9880 9 месяцев назад +2

    I think still got many good brands. Its not wise to waste time asking n begging for the watch available. If everyone keep asking that Xxxx brand , the price will keep jumping up . From the video I feel that no customer service at all . For me I won't waste my time n help them promote . I have a seiko watch for over 20 years still working well . I bought it less than US200. I never even do service or check up 20 years . Just every 1.5 year change battery only

      I don't understand the mentality of so many people falling for this marketing scheme - making something very desirable by telling you you can't have it. Considering there is $200 worth of parts in this rather gaudy, mass produced watch, they don't have to sell many to be able to afford their snotty attitude.

    If gray market and paying absurdly huge added price is the only way to buy it, then it is not considered Luxury in any mean!
