AP/Rolex shopping in Grand Cayman/Turks & Caicos
Hey guys, i'll be going to the Caribbean in January for my honeymoon. While we have yet to decide which particular island(s) is going to host us, we are leaning towards the Cayman Islands and Turks & Caicos. I've read on a few other threads here that there are some deals to be had in these locations, in particular, at Kirk Freeport for Rolex and at Magnum Jewellers for AP in the Grand Cayman.Does anyone have any recent updates on these dealers and the sort of the discounts that can be had, and any information about the dealers/deals to be had in Turks & Caicos? Would I be better off buying from a local AD with whom I have a good relationship?I understand that duty is to be paid when bringing it back through customs. Any other information will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Patek theorists, haters, conspiracy buffs...
There are several threads that are ongoing that all fall under the above title. In one case the abhorrent behavior of one specific AD is being blamed on the brand. In another the brand is being described as out of touch with their new youth target market.Before addressing these specific assertions let's consider what PPs primary goals are as a business and what strategies are being implemented to support this long term goal.

So.FL AD Mayors, Kirks or weston?
Hello Rolex Experts,I am in the beginning stages of buying a 31mm Everose with Presidential bracelet with fluted bezel and chocolate dial with the roman numerals and the six in pave diamonds. It retails for $30,900. I just saw it in vegas but no Ad on the strip offered a discount for cash purchase the bellagio offered me a 2 night stay at a suite. Any way I'm So FL and wanted to know which AD has a little wiggle room. Mayors I know from experience is terrible with wiggle rooms, but I never tried Kirks or Weston. Any experience? I'd also like to ship out of state to save on tax. Any experience with the jewelers?
