Rolex dealership in Munich?

Hi everyone! I’m first time posting on this board though I’m an OG for 16+ years on Tpf. My eldest is graduating in 2026 and we want to gift him a Rolex, thinking about a yachtmaster or submariner… I honestly don’t know much about watches but I’ve heard it’s like playing the Hermes game: need to buy something else before they offer you one. I feel like everywhere I go (or people I talk to), they all treat me like a Chinese tourist, but I actually do live here, although my German is not so good. Would you know anyone who would be willing to work with me and don’t treat me like a reseller? (Nothing wrong with resellers but I’m not good with games anymore…)

Thank you so much in advance! I’m not in a rush (son is graduating in June 2026), but thought to start my research early so I have time to “build a relationship” if that’s what it takes…

Vielen dank!!!

Pretreated vachetta

i have the side trunk pm which has pretreated vachetta. i actually love the look of it and the feeling is great. i personally am still cautious with it because it is vachetta and can still get water stains and stuff. overall, i do like that it already has been evenly treated. plus, it's the perfect color. i don't know about it aging and getting darker, mines still looks like the same as the day i bought it. i prefer the treated vachetta to the untreated and wish they would include it it on more bags.

Baby Niki bag in Black with the antique gold vs the blackish silver chain

I have a black-on-black YSL envelop bag. Got it in 2017 and still going strong.
Just FYI, the black paint will chip over time.
YSL generally has a 2 year warranty for repairs if bought in boutiques.
After that, cost of re-painting/re-plating is approximately $200 USD depending on how much work needs to be done.

While I do not have the Niki I know it is a big favorite, heard it is very durable and versatile.

Mystery Set Pricing?

How beautiful! I've never seen it with sapphires, only with rubies. The ruby version in the US (currently $349,000) is my favorite between the finger ring. It's probably a good thing the ones I've seen are too small, since it really doesn't fit in the budget :shocked:
It was indeed a stunning piece @meemeetoo! The ruby version must have been absolutely breathtaking. At $349,000, it’s definitely a dream-worthy masterpiece!

Aupen

Theres been a lot of controversy surrounding Aupen and I took the chance and ordered one of the new leather bags. From what I can see a lot of the issues come from people being unhappy that they paid 350USD for pleather. The one I received is nice quality, it’s a cute unique design and I’m going to get a ton of wear out of it

Pam’s bag from The Office

Anyone know what bag this is? Looks like a hobo with exterior side pockets and O-rings in the strap. Saw it specifically in the episode of The Office, titled Goodbye Michael Part Two (at the end when Pam meets Michael at the airport). Photos attached. Thanks to anyone who might have info!!
