Rolex Market in Dubai and Abu Dhabi

This year we wanted a warm New Years party, 
so up to Dubai to meet up with some old friends.



I also meet up with a very nice collector from Jakarta.




Honestly, there's no vintage Rolex in Dubai / Aby Dhabi,
at least I haven't found it. I did the gold souks but hardly
anyone could show a vintage Rolex between the enormous
outlet of modern new Rolex, heavily discounted. Cash is king.













Only 2 pieces that came up after I asked everywhere for vintage...











Up to Burj Khalifa & Dubai Mall....























No steel new Explorer 1 or 2, green sub, milgauss, daytona, gmt but gold & bling orientated stock ;-(









Up to Abu Dhabi Ferrai World, on new years eve we went to see Coldplay at the island
what is also used for the Volvo Ocean race that just arrived in the harbor...

















Off course my son had to drive, and off course he was faster then me ;-)


0 to 240 kmh in 5 less then 5 seconds...


Check Alonso's face here on youtube to get a idea how fast it is

Time to relax in Dubai Marina, with famous Barasti bar ;-) Not easy to get used to 
the fact there's no alcohol, besides when you go to these Hotel Clubs, it can become





lol, i had to make a picture of these wal-rus  ;-)))


The Party Boot ;-)




Preparing for the night...




Coldplay...Paradise, Paradise...;-)




Heading back home after another great trip!


Hope you enjoyed! 

Happy New Year to you all!!
