Hi,

some countries sell Rolex watches cheaper due to the exchange rate. In Germany, France and Italy, I believe you can get them at a better price.

Actually most places are cheaper than sg, which is going for at least 11k.

in japan, europe, prices are generally low 9kish.

I felt singapore is still cheaper, at least I know I am getting the genuine rolex, too many recon pieces which look brand new

I beg to differ on both points.

Sg may be cheaper than China, US or Australia, but much more expensive than Europe and a number of other Asian countries (after tax refund). Just take a look at price lists published in watch forums.

Why is there a lower risk of getting a recon set in sg vs overseas? Many ADs in other countries are more or at least equally as established as local ones. With RSC offering authentication services, risk of losing dealership, i dont think any respectable dealers will risk that. Furthermore, the margin from rolex is already reasonable enough.

My 2 cents.

Milan?

Try italy.

[praha335ci]

Adimarc, Milan definitely a good choice.Its also a nice city situated close to the Italian lakes, Swiss alpine region of St. Mouritz and also the mediterrenean.

How about Venice?

[praha335ci]

Venezia is very touristy and hence the AD's aren't that willing to discount.

[dracula747]

Italy or Spain will be the better choice, Not London!!

[adimarc]

btw just side track abit, any advice on the average normal discount % that the local ADs like THG would give if I do not know any particular salesperson? thanks.....

Depends on which model you are buying. If you are looking for sport model, I don't think there's any discount.
