I Exposed The Truth Behind Rolex
Join me as I uncover the truth behind Rolex, including market trends, history, and the unique Rolex allocation system. Dive into the world of luxury watches with me, Frankie Mardell!
I Exposed The Truth Behind Rolex
Why is it so difficult to buy a Rolex at retail price? In this video, we explore the factors behind Rolex’s allocation system, the challenges buyers face, and the reasons why certain models are nearly impossible to purchase directly from an authorized dealer.
We document real experiences of visiting multiple Rolex dealers to understand how the process works. We also discuss how demand, brand strategy, and market conditions have shaped the current state of Rolex retail sales.
What This Video Covers:
• Why Rolex watches are highly sought after and difficult to buy at Retail
• How authorized dealers allocate watches to customers
• The role of spending history and customer relationships in securing a Rolex
• How supply and demand influence pricing and availability
• The impact of the secondary market on Rolex pricing
This video is based on publicly available information, market research, and first-hand experiences. The goal is to provide insight into the current state of the Rolex buying experience and the factors that affect access to these watches.

    This was great insight. Who pockets the 5K? Is it the AD, as he said he could not speak to you with his manager there? Bizarre really......But I must admit I do love Rolex, although I have to bring my Datejust in as it is running slow... Is this something that happens to these watches?

    The AD'S were selling to grey market muppet boiler room dealers at a mark up and then they would mark it up again. But the Muppet Boiler room secondary grey luxury watch market is dead now.

    Nice video. Thanks for showing the truth behind this industry. Completely changed my mind in getting a Rolex now. I'd rather invest that 10k into the stock and get 30% return than having a piece of item with the purpose of flaunting

  • @simbeane
    @simbeane День тому

    ADs always say they don’t have watches for sale due to high demand. Meanwhile, grey dealers can easily source Rolex watches. So, where did the watches go? Rolex watches are not rare-I see more people wearing a Rolex than a Tudor. When I see someone wearing a Rolex, it tells me that person is desperate for a watch and enjoys showing off their wealth. Why? Because to get a Rolex, they either have to play the AD game or pay a premium on the grey market. If you own a Rolex watch, you’ve been played.

    • @simbeane
      @simbeane 17 годин тому

      @ you said you paid almost double the price, you get played by the grey dealer. Grey dealers love people who are desperate for a Rolex like you so they can keep making themselves rich Don’t you get it?

    • @Professional_Youtube_Commenter
      @Professional_Youtube_Commenter День тому

      there is some serious dodhy business going on there. I do wonder how they put this through the books. Do they add other products onto the bill to increase the bill. Put a BB58 onto the receipt. But keep the bb58 for themselves and then sell that onto the grey market and pocket the change? There is something dodgy going on there.

  • @alexxelor

    Bruce Whoooo?? This horrible Gmt, Wayne as you like to call him, will never have a future in the world of Rolex collecting, because all modern sports Rolex are too inflated at the moment. A watch for the masses, without particularities and rarities, industrially produced… Never in my glorious collection 💚

  • @gavinwhite9743
    @gavinwhite9743 День тому

    So, Rolex didn't launch the first self winding movement, nor the first dive watch, nor be worn for Everest. Rolex has great marketing, but perhaps a little research beyond the usual tropes would be beneficial. I also think this video is 3 years late. The vast majority of the catalogue is now available. Pretty much only the steel GMTs, and Daytonas have waiting lists. Bi-metal GMTs are available, as are Daytonas. You may wait a few weeks, but that's all for most of the catalogue. They also are not scarce. You can find more gmts on the chrome type websites than entire brands. Display only left the windows last year.

    It shouldn't be very difficult for Rolex to identify the AD and then withdraw their license. How many boutiques have got this kind of dividers between the desks?

  • @bl1204

    Don't bother to walk in to any random Rolex Ad shop to ask for Rolex watches. You are just wasting your time to listen to their scarcity BS or worse made to feel small and don't deserve giving them your money. To get Rolex watches at retail, start with some other watches and build a buying record first.

    Enjoyed the video, surprised AD sold watch above retail. I know everyone needs to make money isn't this fraudulent. Did you pay the AD the extra or did the member of staff pocket the money? You now have leverage to get more watches (the good ones), which then deprives me of the opportunity to get one at retail. Luckily I got my pepsi at retail. I watch with interest
