In Singapore, you can see a couple of them at Lucky Plaza, Orchard Road. But, generally, they're all over the place. Just walk along orchard road and you'll find some watch stores. Of course, you can also ask the concierge at your hotel, maybe they can point you to the less known places (the farther from Orchard, the cheaper, they say).
In Hong Kong, just walk along Nathan road. There are a bunch of dealers there and also check out Ocean Center. Asians in general love Rolex so you'll pretty much find dealers everywhere. |

In Sydney, there are 4 AD's in the CBD:
Swiss Concepts (Pitt Street) The Hour Glass (King Street) J Farren Price (Castlereigh Street) LK Jewellery (Elizabeth Street) Hope this helps. |

Hello, I'll be staying in Singapore for a couple of nights on the way to Europe (for my wedding!) in August. I'm already hugely excited and during my short stay in Singapore i would like to check out the Rolex Ad's you mentioned above. Would you be able to give me a quick address for them, even if just the street name? Also would the ones in Chinatown be any cheaper and how can i make sure they are "genuine" AD's? Thank you, Denny |

Hi All,
Like to add that the following AD is no longer in operation : Dickson Watch & Jewellery 435 Orchard Road #02-38 Wisma Atria Singapore 238877 Tel: 6732 8900 They have since shifted to the following location. I bought my M series white Expy II last month. Great AD! Have been patronising since I got my very first model there in October 2003 Dickson Watch & Jewellery 3 Temasek Boulevard #01-001/003 Suntec City Mall Singapore 038983 Tel: 6336 4871 |

Nathan Rd (Tsim Sha Tsui Area), and Causeway Bay area also has a lot. Many of the major shopping centers will have an AD or two also (Chow Tai Fook or Chow Sang Sang, being the most notable two). HK is Rolex heaven ! Many, many AD's and many folks wearing them !

Yes. In Hong Kong we do have tons of AD, just like convenient store. You can find most of the up-to-date model with good deal, but not for SS Daytona and Milguass GV which are still in shortage.

Perfect! Thanks for the list. I am planning to go to HK specifically to get a Rolex, so this info is exactly what I needed.
PS. Why would you buy one in Sydney, ad pay about 20-30% more than most other places in the world? |

In Singapore you will be falling over Rolex AD's and most are open fairly late at night. I bought one of mine in Raffles and one in China Town and two totally different buying experiences. In Raffeles I was treated like a king and in China Town is was more like a market.
In Sydney all the AD's had locked doors, you had to ring a bell to get in and being a "tourist in shorts I felt I was being viewed with a bit of suspicion. Hong Kong is a bit like Singapore but I would be more carefull and wouldn't buy from anywhere else except an AD. B. |

As others have said, you really can't go wrong in HK or Singapore for Rolex. DO go and see Joseph Ho at the Watch Palace (304 Orchard Rd) for a stunning selection. There are plenty of other AD's along Orchard Rd and in Lucky Plaza. In HK, take a stroll along Nathan Rd....you will find all models and there are several AD's and some good prices. I bough my EXP II at the Swiss Watch Co on Nathan. |
