I think this has been discussed here in the forum. Try search for the relevant thread(s) and see how the response was.

I'm curious too coz I juz bought from local AD a few mths ago. Tried searching forum, but can't find the confirmed answer.
Anyone know if this is really true? --> "rolex in asia is actually made in HK? and only those in europe is made from swiss"

Hi all, sorry if it is a noob question. I am planning to buy my first rolex. The watch that im interested is from watch arena but the warranty card is printed from kee hing hung. The sales person said it is because khh sold the watch overseas and they bought it back and sold as brand new. My question is do i need to send the watch to roc for verification after purchase or can it be trusted as it is a genuine rolex? Thanks

Hi All,

Thought I could post the same subject. So I've been looking for my first Rolex too, right. And I was thinking of Explorer II for the sake of the price. I don't really want to go over 10K for first time Rolex. Few inquiries though:

- I read few posts of pre-owned Rolex with tempting price. What do you guys think of this? I don't have experience in checking the quality of pre-owned, certification, and everything else for that matter. The only good thing I could think of for pre-owned Rolex is the prices. So, should I buy pre-owned (with more effort on checking the piece itself) or buy a brand new one leaving me with no hesitation on checking the piece?
- I read there are few ADs and non-ADs who give promotion and paying with installment with credit card. Is this is a good idea? Suppose I don't have the money right now, should I wait or just buy right away using this CC installment plan?
- Would you guys advise the very recommended AD and non-AD for Rolex watches? I don't really get when I read something like Rolex 'Roc' AD. What's the long version of that anyway? Tried to Google Rolex 'roc' AD and came up with nothing.

Thanks in advance for your answer, guys.

Great choice, chio looking, large case, latest upgraded movement etc.

The rest of your questions i think answered here..
