Ooooookay....

He wasn’t selling to them, AD did.
The point is the poor customer experience, which is ruining the brand.
No one wants to be treated like sh** after spending loads of money as a customer. The negative way R is treating AD’s and how rudely AD’s are treating their customers… this is the problem that needs to change IMO.
But maby the world has changed and no one gives a damn how companies are treating us..?

I used to be a long time member here years ago, but good point anyway.

Yes. A boycott of Rolex. Fight the tyranny of a luxury goods producer unable to keep up with demand.

It’s like Gandhi, but for rich people.

Watch out, Hermès! The Birkin boycott will be next!

There’s more to the story.

Yeah. Rolex doesn’t give a sh**.
I know: this boycot is a joke from R pow.

Looks like your part of the ‘problem’ flipping your SkyD

HideMyWalletPlease · 26 September 2021, 06:08 AM

Such a meaningful cause. Forget about feeding the third world. Let’s make Rolex pay for insulting this high roller. How dare this AD not move him to the front of the line every time he requests a watch they’ve already sold him!

How exactly is Rolex “poor customer experience” “affecting the brand”? Have the watches become easier to acquire? Are AD display cases suddenly full because customers are fed up? Have discounts started again? Two guys boycotting Rolex because one got his feels hurt is not a movement.

And the whole ‘I’m boycotting Rolex except for the one I’m not getting rid of’ is a textbook definition of the variable moral compass.

I remain unconvinced by the histrionic kabuki theater.

zengineer · 26 September 2021, 06:12 AM

I find your outrage quite childish and silly so I have decided that I will not be joining your boycott.

Bang on Gary and as for that Omega with its wart…just can’t unsee it.

And the part where he effectively flipped what appears to be half of his Rolex collection.
Was the Skydweller bought through his mate who has now had the brakes put on him?
For that matter was the JC bought through his mate as well?

A boycot by the wealthy and entitled and sundry hangers on.
I can see how that'll work

Hmm, you mean that piece is special? Meaningful and an heirloom piece? or is it just one of a million mass produced like you mentioned earlier

Thanks for sharing your story. I owned a couple of Omega watches in the past but they didn't last.
For me Rolex stays my favourite brand (together with Tudor, Panerai, Breitling or Cartier)

Decisions, decisions??????

I love the Seinfeld GIF. Nice Omega op. Have fun with your boycott.

calebb90 · 26 September 2021, 06:31 AM

Do you boycott women when one turns you down too?

Boo hoo, not getting sympathy from me for telling a story that’s not even yours.
