If you think of a Rolex Certified Pre-Owned boutique as a place to get a slightly used Submariner, a well-loved Datejust, or some other “used” Rollie, think again. For many who took a cynical view of what Rolex was up to when it announced its CPO program, it was about the Crown cashing in on the hyped-up prices for 1:1 Rolex replica watches on the secondary market. We will confess to having considered this point of view, and we even conducted some street-level investigations in Manhattan’s various Rolex CPO boutiques that confirmed such dour notions.
However, after visiting the Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons Rolex Certified Pre-Owned boutique in Dubai, we are eating our words—or we would be if our jaws weren’t on the ground.
The collection of UK AAA Rolex fake watches on offer through Seddiqi is among the most incredible gatherings of Rollies in one place of all time, and we’d even include RollieFest in that assessment. The Seddiqi family, which is celebrating 75 years in business, took over a year and a half to compile, service and certify nearly 300 Rolexes, every single one of which is a showstopper. Most are rare, many are bejeweled, some are insanely collectible vintage pieces, and some are just beautifully preserved examples (I tried on a GMT Master Coke, for example, that was crisp, clean, serviced, and ready to roll).
Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons has put the ideal of a Rolex CPO boutique—as a destination for serious watch collectors—on the map in a very real way. Positioned not in their flagship boutique downtown, the CPO boutique is in Dubai’s Wafi Mall, one of the older shopping centers in the city with a pedigree and vibe all its own. The boutique is gorgeously appointed after its recent redecoration in preparation for the CPO launch.
Take a moment to consider what it would take to get all of these vintage and neo-vintage Rolexes prepared for sale: First, they need to be purchased, which is no small feat given what’s on offer here, from very rare bejeweled Daytonas to Day-Dates with onyx and malachite dials to smaller models with exceptional (and exceptionally rare) woven bracelets. All these high quality Rolex copy watches need to be authenticated in conjunction with Rolex, then serviced and brought to their best possible condition, then shipped back to the shop, cataloged, photographed, and ultimately priced and sold. It’s easy to see why this took a year and a half, and no other Rolex CPO program has brought this level of curation.
The watches below are just a smattering of the nearly 300 on offer upon the launch of the boutique. We photographed them in Dubai ahead of the launch, a rare privilege to spend time with what we’d guess is the most impressive batch of pre-owned luxury replica Rolex watches on Earth right now. Clearly, this is going to be the Rolex CPO boutique to visit.
