Ignore the haters. “If my AD offered me a great watch at half price as a favor for my purchase history, I would stop talking to him…” Are you guys joking?!

They’re just jealous. I’d say flip the Batman so the jewelry is free, but the Batman is such a cool and versatile watch, it’s worth keeping

Congratulations. This has nothing to do with dignity or a lack thereof. I see it as an opportunity afforded the OP for the purchase of an item that was going to be bought anyway. Great watch. Enjoy.

Don’t feel bad, that store and SA make more off the earring sale than any watch they sell. This sounds like a win win for everyone.

Congrats to you and your wife for a pair of beautiful diamond earrings and gorgeous BLNR.

I think you’re doing good for the deal. It’s like you buy BLNR from secondary market and get a pair of diamond earrings as a free gift.

Happy people always think positive.

A result!

Apply logic - why all the dismissive hate when the whole transaction started with the jewelry anyways, its not like the AD tried to fob a $20k necklace on you after asking about the watch. In my mind they were taking care of you and offered you a nice opportunity.

Not surprised, this happens more often than not. I have an idea of which AD this was.

if he was going to buy the jewellery anyways, I don't fault the OP. However, the AD doing this puts a bad taste in my mouth in general for the Rolex market.

I’m not offended by this. A more difficult situation is your AD is the Rolex only boutique and you own most of the hot models. There is nothing you can buy to geese the wheels.
