Happy days
Just collected it 2 hrs ago , excellent experience, greeted by security on the door and offered a drink ,then taken to the Rolex ambassador who already had the watch on the desk ,we chatted for a while whilst I tried it for size ,he sized it removed the stickers ,I'm lucky the chap is a watch expert he collects various brands ,his Reverso is my favourite.

I've always been curious about why Rolex Authorized Dealers (ADs) remove the clear stickers from the watches. I've purchased multiple Rolex pieces from different ADs, and in every case, they've taken off the stickers. When I asked them about it, I was told it's a Rolex policy. However, when I looked into Rolex's official policy, I couldn't find any mention of removing stickers.
So, I decided to reach out to Rolex directly through email to inquire about this matter. They directed me to their website, specifically the "buying a Rolex" section. In this section, they outline three key aspects of the Rolex buying experience:
1. Peerless Quality Standards: This section discusses the meticulous quality standards Rolex maintains, covering aspects like movement quality, case and bracelet craftsmanship, and other quality-related details.
2. Preparing Your Watch: Here, they explain what "official Rolex jewelers" do to prepare your watch for you. This includes adjusting the bracelet or strap to the perfect size for your comfort, setting the time, date, and day, checking the watch's functions, and ensuring the crown is tightened. They also mention providing you with the user manual and filling out the Rolex guarantee card.
3. The Five-Year International Guarantee: This section pertains to the warranty coverage provided by Rolex for a period of five years, which is self-explanatory.

As you can see, there is no mention of de-stickering or removing any stickers from the watch in their official policy.
In my experience, every time I've purchased a Rolex, the AD has adjusted the bracelet, cleaned the watch, set the time and date, and, finally, removed the stickers, all after I've completed the payment process. This raises a valid question: once I've paid for the watch, and the AD has registered it in my name, doesn't it become my property? If so, what rights do they have to modify or touch it without my consent?
I'm curious if anyone else has asked an AD about this practice, or if there are any legal experts who could provide insight into the legal perspective on this matter.

My wife just received her datejust on Saturday and it followed the script above.Checking other forums they say it's so flippers don't sell it as fully stickered, obviously for even more money
