paylady Posted July 3, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Does anyone know if there is an official Rolex dealer in St. Thomas? Little Switzerland used to be an official dealer many years ago but I believe they no longer are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecleave Posted July 3, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 3, 2004 A.H. Riise is the official Rolex dealer in St. Thomas now. Hubby says they are the only dealer too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty1 Posted July 4, 2004 #3 Share Posted July 4, 2004 We priced the Rolexes, but decided not to buy one. They were actually cheaper in St Maarten than in St Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paylady Posted July 4, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted July 4, 2004 Thank you both for posting. Typically, there is only one official dealer on these islands. Kitty1: Do you remember who the official dealer is in St. Martin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 4, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 4, 2004 :) Had a friend who wanted a Rolex. He priced them here at home before we went to the islands. Ended up buying one here as it was cheaper than the islands. Also be warned - many US shops won't repair anything that is bought in the islands - due to warrenties. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkeruski Posted July 5, 2004 #6 Share Posted July 5, 2004 I just returned from a cruise Saturday and bought a Stainless Rolex Yachtmaster at AH Riise in St. Thomas. They list for 7250 in the states and I got mine for 6615. I even declared it with customs along with 1500 in jewelry for my wife. Total duty for both was 198.00. I had debated whether to declare it, but the duty was so small I glad I did. They have basically the same watches on St. Maarten and the prices are the same. The dealer there is Goldfinger. You will have no problem servicing your watch if you buy them at an authorized dealer, which these two places are. Have fun and pull the trigger!!

kitty1 Posted July 8, 2004 #7 Share Posted July 8, 2004 The dealer in St Maarten was Goldfinger.... Believe it or not the same store on the French side was about $50 cheaper than the one in Phillipsburg. The Phillipsburg store was shocked when we told them that. We decided not to buy the rolex, but we looked at them and priced them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
