They had one in stock at horolgio, a really sweet watch store at the venetian in vegas, the last time I was out there. They even let me try it on, which is pretty awesome seeing as they know there was no shot in hell I could even think about buying it!


That is pretty cool. Sometimes I get irritated when people come in my store and finger f**k my merchandise and never buy anything and we are talking about $500-$5000 not $150,000. I always wondered how the ADs handled people wanting to try on some of the extreme high end watches...


Even if they know you wont buy it, they usually let you try it on to get excited and maybe buy something else, maybe in the future. Last week I went to a few boutiques with my cousin and none of them even batted an eye letting us try anything on. I talking 3-4 $150,000 Cartier tourbillons, 100k iced out Hublots, and $!!!,!!! Breguets. It probably helped that my cousin was wearing a Rolex, and I had a Breitling on my wrist and a Panerai in my hand, but I got the idea that they would have let us play with them anyway.

yeah exactly. I was wearing a breitling SOC and my friend has his bentley motors on. We talked watches with one of the guys for a while. I think when sales people who actually know about watches, they are few and far between, meet potential customers who have more than a superficial appreciation for watches they respect that and let them run wild!
