Anybody bought Rolex from Herbert Brown Jewellers ?

[reggie747]

There is a branch near to me and they often have pre-owned Rolex in the window and their website has a fair number in stock too.

Has anybody, country wide, had any dealings with them ?

Cheers

They're owned by the same company as Albermarle & Bond who recently went into administration.

I'd buy a watch from them as long as the price was right.

Oh right, I wasn't aware of that.
I assume they've been bought as a going concern then hence they're still trading ?

I probably wouldn't get too far in there haggling for a discount for cash would I haha

[Sy1441]

Yeah, H&T's main shareholders have bought out a fair bit of the business.

I'd imagine getting a discount shouldn't be an issue.

All these threads about Rolex discount are probably mot doing anyone any favors, Rolex have strict no discount policy, how can putting names all over the internet end well.

Herbert Brown aren't an AD, they sell pre-owned. Different market, different rules.

So this thread, and the others aren't about new Rolex then
