Icon7 New upcoming Rolex Boutique in Boston!!!!

Hello All!

I have been given the ok to finally let the community know about something very exciting coming to Boston!

Summer/Fall of 2020 a new Rolex Boutique will open in Boston, 2 floors, 4000 sq ft!...[edited]

Matt is awesome...he works at Long's in Peabody,MA...Long's will be the official proprietor with Rolex running the show. They, along with Rolex, smartly picked Matt to head this new amazing store. Matt has never steered me wrong.

It is said to be the biggest boutique in the country, and will have Rolex certified service on site as well!

If you don't know Matt, stop into the Peabody store before he is permanently in Boston...he's close to my work so I always enjoy stopping and chatting...with him moving we will have to do more of that by phone/email...I'll have to plan my visits with him since he will be permanently in Boston.

It's a great thing for Boston, Long's, and Matt! They couldn't have picked a better more passionate and knowledgeable guy to head up this new venture.

That sounds great. RSC to boot! I have a large (upscale mall) Rolex boutique near me where I scored a new SubC a couple years ago but ever since they barely acknowledge me. VVIP only which is fine that led me to find my new smaller AD who treats me right. Anyway good luck to your friend and the new venture. I was just in Boston and have opportunities to visit in laws sometime. I'll be sure to check them out.

Sounds exciting! I wonder how many of that 4000 ft is going to be a showroom. That's a lot of watches they will need to try to display.

Shipping up to Boston!!!

I’ve picked up a few pieces from Long’s Boston store. They’ve always been both professional and kind to me. I wish all involved in the new boutique the very best!

I heard this rumor last month. Glad to see it’s actually happening. Just wondering how many tt datejusts it will take to fill 4000 square feet of space.

lol. We had a new Rolex AD open up near me and they had some less desirable sports models on display, still a bigger selection than most.

They didn't display any of the over list models. Although, when I tried on a President the sales associate was very eager to sell me it with a desired sports model I mentioned. Funny how things go from impossible to get to readily available when you show interest in gold. As if there is one in the safe in the back..hmmmmmmmm?

Rolex will almost certainly ship them desirable models before the store even opens. I'd love to see someone here go right at opening and offer to buy a Hulk, GMT, or Daytona right on the spot. I doubt that any of those models will be sold to you despite them having at least one of them in-stock.

Funny but also sad. Why open a huge store just to tell people we don’t have what you want ?

They have the watches lol. The demand exceeds stock so they will hold them back and give them to their first VIPs.

They will probably display an Explorer, Explorer II, Milgauss so I don't think it will be entirely empty. Just not the sell over list models. I'd still try my luck at a new AD. There's always a chance.

Since we have a thread of Bostonians, Tourneau at Copley has a Black dial milguass in the back. Erina is the only one I’d work with there.
