If someone from Rolex is reading (or is otherwise aware of this, which is most likely the case), they better make sure to turn these ADs into former ADs at the speed of light...
These unethical practices seem more and more common, especially in certain regions, and Rolex has to understand that its (global) reputation is also at stake if don't try to put an end to them ;-) Thanks for sharing.
Rolex Daytona and Sea-Dweller available
walked by an AD in Taipei while vacationing and noticed that those two are available. However, the black dial 116500 can be had if one first purchase an extra Cellini and a lady's SS watch. For the Sea-Dweller, you need only purchase an extra Cellini. Hap...

When I was in KaohsiungTaiwan, last Nov 2019 [nt]
I found all this. but need to pair up with this. Pepsi & Batman=champagne dial Cellini. Submariner=Tudor Daytona=Cellini and Day-Date. Or if you buy Daytona with Rainbow gems=You can get anything on the above list. LOL. .....
