Is a Rolex Expensive? That is subjective and depending who you are… For Mr. Lee, nothing seems to be expensive. As for me, everything seems a lot to me!

In US, most of the Porsche Lovers are not real rich and they save money hard for their beloved cars, that is the Passion for Porsche.

We could see a Silk/gold thread tie is selling HKD$49,995 in HK and an Earphone for your Galaxy Note II is selling HKD$23,800 without any discount!

The Earphone is still good as you can use it everyday when you are not at work, or in the CX cabin! But I don’t think you can wear such a gold tie to work everyday? At least you will not receive any salary adjustment anymore as you boss wears a Temple Street fake Silk tie!

How about I use the amount of Money to buy a Rolex Date just men watch

Ref 116234 today with HKD$58,800*?


That may bring you a life time accuracy, it is a multi purpose all time men accessory,,

At least that is not too shiny and untouchable, a lot of executive is using this watch.

This Date Just is you partner at work, travelling or overseas trip or even swimming.

And it will still receive many thousand of dollars when you place at the nearby Pawn Shop, why, because it is a Rolex. Note that the Fluted bezel is made of solid 18KT Solid White Gold.

Remarks * List price... Nornally we can get less 5% minimum as discount.

Comment
There are big price difference between pre-owned watch and which selling as new at Rolex AD especially Daytona, mainly because there is long queue for New Rolex Daytona at an AD. All it takes it supply and demand, but I would wait for new Daytona at Rolex AD as no one knows the history of that watch.

There are many people do not know that there are many watches selling as USED with price even higher than the new watch at Rolex AD. Please check carefully before you give them your credit card!!

It is a good shopping at Prince Edward Road as after the shopping, you can go to the next two shop of Win Fat for the HK Famous dessert at Shun Yee dairy, and street on next block which sells pets, fishes, and or Fa Hui (Flower market) for all kinds of flowers. What a nice Place for Watch Window Shopping in Saturday Afternoon!

Times have Changed over the years, One thing has not changed!

Rolex Day Date White Gold, my work horse, and a Stack of
facial Paper with Motif of US Dollar
Taken By HTC Handphone

When I was in Middle School, we used to say’ good Morning! Sir!” first to teacher when I was young and I know that now the teacher will say “Good morning students!” first when the class begins.

in 70's ,when we enter a taxi, the driver will say “Morning Sir!”

Now I am the one only say “ Morning!” when I entre the taxi in HK!”

In the 90, there is a lot of people would give seat to the senior or the pregnant woman, now I see the seniors will give seat to the young kids, and worse thing is. They do not know how to say” Thank you!

When I was a bit younger, when I see a pretty woman, and he noticed you were watching her, she smiled at me… Now, when I do the same to the woman. She will give me a dirty eyes and immediate want to call “999” for help!!

We used to open talking to someone for a proposal to the love Hotel in a very conservative way using various kind of sweet talks… now the woman asked me Straight which hotel is nearest?

I was the one on top as missionary position, now I am always the one under her…


We used to deliver Milk Power, condensed milk to Relative in China back in 80s’

Now Chines to buy all the Milk Powder in HK…What’s wrong with the milk farming industry in China?


We used to hear that the policemen said words of profanity to the driver, hawkers, and suspects! Now we can always say “bad words” to the policemen, they response with words of “ Thank you!”

We used to be having legislative meeting in a profound, organized sensible ways, now the Senate can throw anything to our respectful chairmen of the legislative council : Coffin, banana, Water bottle, shoes, may be later knife and Axes!?

We used to promote people for good performance such as good sales revenue, big order received when I was with Siemens back in 1985. Now, we used to promote people who does not necessarily make sales but must be a “Yes Man”! and be a good boy who can paint a “Picture of Rose Garden ” at the Operation Meeting.

We used to have a man who is taller when we seek girl friends for marriage, now the man is always shorter, and the woman is taller and much more attractive than the man….and Richer… What happened, a social re-bounce of the Ugly Short man like I?

It used to be you’d dinner at home and go out for entertainment!”

Now you do entertainment at home and go out for dinner!’
Joseph Sharpe, President of the International Flipper Pinball Association (IPFA) said, “Times have changed!” 
 

One Thing for sure has not changed, that is Rolex,  it was my first love and likely that is my best Love. Rolex Quality Does not change… It was started with best quality already since early 20's.

Rolex Submariner White Gold Ref 116619LB...One of my two Rolex Dream Watches.



This is a Big poster on the same Watch taken by my Note II LTE in 2012
in one of the Rolex AD in Ocean Termnal Tsim Sha Tsui

This is a set of picture sent from the one who bought this Rolex dream watch (One of My dream Rolex Watches, the other is Ice blue Day Date) in one of the HK Rolex AD two weeks ago…

This is the Submariner Ref 116619LB 18KT white gold with Blue Ceramic Bezel and Dial. The colour makes this watch looks like a “Toy” on top of the WHITE gold…But the price isn’t Toy Price. As it is priced at HKD$263,600.

The polishing of the cases and strap are one of the best man could make… with finest final touch up of the Oyster Case after Robot does the Automatic case prime polishing for the exact Oyster Profile.
I had tried to wear on my wrist once in Rolex AD, and I almost unwilling to return… it is so comfortable and has the “MASS” on my hand… I am sure I do not like too much Watch made by Titanium… it lacks of the “STUFF” inside… White Gold and Platinum is my preferred Precious metals for watch. Titanium is best for make passenger aircraft and the stealth bomber jets! not so much for Watch cases.

I believe this watch was polished by the most experienced technician…and was well taken care by Rolex watch smith for the final inspection. With the AR coating on the sapphire, I am sure the Shark in the Pacific Ocean will salute to you… when it sees the dial!

The Owner of this watch is a Celebrity of course, a Super car lover, a Hollywood Movie Star… and an Idol of many sexy Women… I am one of his FANS now!! Because he gets my dream Submariner…

Well, he has the same charisma as Leon Lai Ming of HK who has the same watch…
Next buyer may be HK Snob, but I do not know when I can get this watch into my Collections…

Well, as the Watch Collector Adrian Said, The fun of WAITING is more than the fun of

OWNING it… hmm!

Who are the major Customers who buy Rolex in Hong Kong and Macao?

Who People buying Rolex in HK and Macao!?

Talking about brand name in vast scale publicity, I believe no one does not know about Rolex! And Rolex seems the most common name for Swiss luxury watch.

So what do you think WHO buy Rolex in HK!?


1. Rolex is mostly welcome by pawn shop of HK.

You can see how many watch is Rolex in those 100 pawn shops near Lisboa Hotel Macao? That is Rolex. So when people win a fortune in The Casino, the first thing is to buy a Rolex for himself and a DateJust Lady for his one-night Girl friend there.

2. People buy Rolex as testament for marriage. Many couple bought Rolex man for

he and one for her in 80s and 90s before the marriage. Every anniversary, they wear it and take the dinner under the candles.

3. People buys Rolex because that is a “Me too” watch!

4. Rolex Collectors buy Rolex.

5. Speculators buy Rolex, at least I was the one who bought 4 Rolex Explorer I with HKD$14,000 in Singapore in 1995. They sold it next day when I retuned HK.

6. People buys Rolex as a standard tool for work, salesman, tour guide, banker, pilot, carpenter, Pilots, flight attendants, construction worker that used Daytona SS Black Dial…etc

Salesman like I used to wear A Day Date White Gold for work.

7. Professionals that wear Rolex for diving, hiking, working in Lab, hospital, clinic…etc

8. Business lady that wear Rolex Explorer II black for work as they do not have to leave I on the table when she goes to take a bath.
9. Movie Star, Celebrity and their Fans, Leon Lai Ming wears Submariner White Gold Ref 116619LB, and fans have to catch up with him wearing the same or similar model.

10. Lucky Girl that buys a Rolex on Saint Valentine’s Day using her boy Friend Credit card.


11. Chinese Tycoon buys 10 Rolex each time coming to HK as give-away item to their clients in China.


12. Since Rolex is so boring as it never fail or stop after using for 20 , 30 years, only post 90’s people would be the new potential customer in HK, so the market for HK people is diminishing everyday, the major buyer is from Mainland China, Indonesian, Thai and Australian. I think 70% of the watches were going to the mainland China Visitors nowadays, 20 percents to the other foreign visitor and 10% to people of HK.


13 Someone had an affair with the one (2nd Wife) he loves in China, they used to buy a 26mm Lady Date Just Stainless or two tone for her…

14. Who else?

Likely this is the best value purchase for a NOS discontinued Rolex Date in Hong Kong.

Ref 16223 Discontinued Date Just Lapis Blue Dial
Note that the dials are all different in Colour

Ref 116233 Current Production Date Just Onyx Dial

Many people including me have concern on when the next Rolex price adjustment!

Rumour was to increase before the Chinese New Year but it wasn't... and now it seems that it will happen after the Chinese New year? Who know?

What if there is a watch which is still selling the price of 2006 in Shop of Rolex Authorized Dealer, and that is a brand new Rolex of very special dial?

Is that possible? Yes, there are, and these are good stuff if you are not those few people who are so sensitive to Chinese superstitions on colour "Blue"! “難撈”

I find out there are three rare gems in one of the Rolex AD shop in Hong Kong today...

They discontinued since 2006 and has been lying in the shops are years, just because it was blue dial?

But do you know the materials for the dial is Lapis Blue, a kind of beautiful stone, the process of making such kind of dial is tedious and I believe Rolex does not produce many of this kind.... At least I can not see it on many models of Rolex.

The process of turning a piece of raw stone into a piece of Rolex gem dial including inspection of the stone for the best part with even colour and pattern of uniqueness.

Then cut it to the thickness of not more than 0.5 mm and lap to the right precise thickness under a lapping machine. And drill then hole for mounting the diamond at 6, and 9 hour index. Make another square hole for the date at 3 position and at last drill a hole for the Rolex crown.

The yield of making this beautiful dial is very low as 30% and I think it takes a least 10 man hour to produce one of this dial.
Now what if you can buy this great beauty Ref 16233 at 2006 price of HKD$72,950.
This new price of 116233 standard without and. Diamond and Lapis Blue dial has been in the range of HKD$72,500.

And this is a two tone watch with 18KT solid jubilee strap and bezel.

I can say this is the best deal in town for a new Rolex, is you do not mind " blue" colour. After standard 5% discount will be HKD$69,302. If you are lucky enough to get a VIP discount with additional discount? Of course, so long when the stock lasts... Do not miss this chance after these treasure was uncovered.

If you want a newer model of current production on Onyx dial, the price is HKD$94,700 of course the difference is a current production model has a new design strap with hidden clasp deployment. And a Better Feeling of New Production Watch that is it... But I am sure that the Lapis blue is a kind of specialty.

Remember a solid yellow gold Lapis Blue submariner Ref 116110LN had reached a hammer price of HKD$730,000 in 2012 auction. And the dream fountain pen so produced between 1929 to 1939 is Waterman Patrician in "Turquoise". "Lapis Blue" and "Turquoise"; the kind of magic charms of a fascinating colour!

Trade in his Explorer II Ref 16570 to Ref 216570

                                          2000 Rolex Ref 16570 Explorer II 40mm


                                                              Ref 16570 Explorer II


                                                       Rolex Ref 216570 Explorer II 42mm

Ref 216570 Explorer II 42mm Orange pointer

It has a drive for someone who has been used the Explorer II for 12 years, sold it in some shops and add up So if his wrist is large enough to handle the 42mm. The drive is the greater legibility, the improved 3187 movement, the AR coating (Anti-Reflection Coating) for the Cyclops, the new blue lume, and the upgraded bracelet/Easylink clasp are all pluses for me. Being into "retro", I also like the orange hand and "EXPLORER". And I like his "little brother". it will dress up or down.
Caliber 3187 is super accurate!  Another friend of mine nought it three weeks ago, he has been wearing it in Australia and find the Rfe 216570 gains 4 seconds so far!! that is an record for automatic watch to have this kind of accuracy!

He bought this Brand new Ref 216570 List price at HKD$60,500. with some Discount!

How to get more discount buying Rolex in Hong Kong?

There is a Policy Rolex AD is strictly not allowing more than standard 5% discount to every buyer In Hong Kong.


And being a High profile Blogger, I have been referring some of my known friends to get extra discount… and many insiders told me Rolex is keeping an eye on me.


Well, to Rolex, I think I am being treated both Hate and Love… as you can see I am Rolex Collector, and Every article I am telling my true Passion on Rolex…


But on the other hand… I am considered doing something jeopardizing their selling policy.



I am doing my best to help many of the Rolex lovers to get some extra discount buying Watches Rolex, Omega, IWC, Cartier. and many others only. And Worst thing is , I earn nothing… I am working in another industry to earn my rice and congees.



As far as Rolex internal Price strategy, there will ne a very harsh punishment to the Watch Shop Roles Authorized dealer to sell watch more 5% to buyers..



So in order not to hurt anyone I know in the Rolex AD chain…

I have better keep away from this…


However, friend, visitor of my blogs advised me to give an advice to you on how to get extra discount yourself… this is some of the Advice,.,. And I can not say this is my Advice!



Try to ask as many discounts as possible as if they know you are not the undercover of Rolex and they will grant you more discount like less 8% to less 14%!



I have seen some walk-in can get a Milgauss green Glass with less 13% may be he is a smart negotiation,,, well worth a trial…


Buy Rolex at a low season, that is they need more revenue to pay the rent…

Xmas, CNY, New year, Feb 5-13 Oct 1-10, May 1-10 is peak shopping season, buying other than this period may have Higher chance to get more discount…


Show you are the Foreigner with passport, Driving license, and name card… that tell the Shop manager you are not really the undercover.



That is it… try your luck and tell me if that works…

Watch Slogan

There are so many taglines, advertisement and Slogan for watch.


A successful Watch Slogan will help in promotion of the brand.

Which one is that you had familiarized!? Which one is that you like most!?

Which one is a successful slogan that keeps you memorized!?

I think Patek Philippe successfully has been selling its image of Classic and Traditional by using Slogan “Begins your own traditions”

How about Rolex, It seems there is no such standard Slogan as Rolex is still searching way to fix a standard. In the 70s they have a Slogan, “You’re not ready”, that is an ironical way to tell people the Day Date of Rolex is not for you.

And this helped to tell everyone that is the Flag ship the next watch you should go for….


But I would like to ask Rolex, After Day Date, what else is not yet ready for me?

When Where you can see a lot of Rolex in HK?


This is the Chinese New year day whereby most of the people are on vacation except poor HK Snob had to work as to help the family.

In these few days started on Sunday 10 Feb as the first day to the New year, and Monday (2nd) and Wednesday (4th) that is the three days you can see many Rolex in the street? Why?
As a traditions, 3rd day is not good to meet friends.

As many Chinese buys Rolex for investment and they might just keep it in the cold dark Safe Deposit box in the bank of the Safe box at home, except these three days, they will take it out and Polished it with a puff of air from his mouth using a piece of cloth to polish away the passivation layer after sleeping in the safe for 300 days. And in the 80s 90s many new married couples used to buy a Pair of Rolex one for he and one for She…. Now they can take it out to show off a bit…

You can count in just one carriage of MTR, you can easily find 12 Rolex Watches in these days!!

Well, Enjoy your Rolex! And you might feel better as it has gain 70% in dollar value over the past ten years! At least it appears a piece of investment and luxury items for many people. Afterward, don't put it back in the safe for another year to come.

An Australian Friend bought a Rolex Ref. 116619LB yesterday

This is one of my favourite Watches, you can not find this in the pre-owned market! Why, first of all this is not a preferred model for the Supertitious Chinese Hong Kongers, second, this is an expensive Watch that no normal worker like I can afford to buy!
Only limited Rich people or Watch Lovers would like to consider. 
This is not a common article you can find in the pre-owned Watch Market in HK. So far I have not seen one and my friend Andy saw once only.
Peter, friend of mine came to HK to buy this beautiful Rolex Dream Watch.... He paid in Cash, I belived the sales man had to count 15 minutes for that huge amount, it is about 4 times the price of Ref 116610LN!
and I hope Peter could find this watch a piece of gem and I believe the sharks underseas will salute to you and dare not bite you, because they dare not under-estimate you! The Rich Power!
