Testimonials
Doug
"I recently purchased my third Rolex from Wes at Bob's. As always, Wes was great to work with. The transaction was easy and seamless. Most importantly, my watch which was listed as "Light signs of wear on bracelet" looks brand new to me. I really could not see any signs of wear. I am thrilled with my new (2013) GMT Master. I can't imagine buying a used Rolex ( you can't buy a new one if you are an average guy) from anyone else but Bob's. I highly recommend them and Wes."

"Really fantastic service. After being 1 full year out of warranty, Larry from service still took in my GMT and inspected/diagnosed/serviced my watch for a small fee, fixed the overclocking movement, repaired my bracelet, all of which was very above and beyond. I’m now a repeat customer!"
