My Journey to find my new Rolex took me to Wickersham Jewelers. The Experience was amazing! I would recommend shopping here for any Rolex needs or any of your other Jeweler needs as well. I am writing my full review/Story below. It is quite lengthy and I wanted anyone quickly scanning this review to not have to read the whole story.
I have been on the hunt to add a new Rolex to my collection for 3 years now. I have experienced all the horror stories everyone has heard about when I went into multiple other Rolex locations. The Snotty salesman behind the counter letting me know I did not deserve a new Rolex because I have not spent 100's of thousands of dollars at his store. Not offering to let me try on any Rolex's even though I have one on my wrist and doing everything possible to get me to leave and not waste his time.
I was going to buy some watches on the grey market, but I said lets give it one more shot. So I called Wickersham, and spoke with Haylie. She was sweet as can be, and invited me to come into the store. I live two and a half hours away so I wanted to make sure that this was not going to be a wasted trip where I would be treated like I have been for 3+ years now. Haylie assured me that it was worth my while to make the trip so she could give me the full "Rolex" experience. I was a little leary due to the fact that I had not been happy with previous experiences with multiple other authorized dealers.
I made the trip over to see Haylie. I was greeted with a smile, and a bottle of water. I was looking for 3 different watches. 1 for an employee, 1 for a friend and 1 for myself. Haylie had me try on any and all watches that I was interested in, and wrote down each model number. She assured me I did not need to buy other jewelry to get special attention. And she made it clear that I would most likely have a chance to buy all three watches I was interested in. Including two that are in the executive series. I do have to throw in that I would be willing to take a wide range of options. No one in this Rolex market should expect to be able to get what they want when they want unless it is something that is basic. And even that is a stretch.
Haylie then gave me a Rolex Catalog, which in all honesty is a book, and sent me on my merry way. I did ask her about their other location, and she encouraged me to go up to their Fresno location and let them know what models I was interested in.
I did not leave with a new watch, which I had no reason to believe I would going on this journey. But I did, for the first time in 4 years, leave with a sense of hope that I would in the not to near future be getting that Magical call telling me they have the watch that I am looking for. I will update more details when I do...
Read moreWickersham Jewelers was the destination of my search for a Rolex. It was an amazing experience. For all of your Rolex demands as well as any other jewelry requirements, I would suggest purchasing here.
Erica was the one who helped me. She is truly awesome. Upon arrival, I received a nice smile and a warm greeting, as well as a bottle of water. Erica took the time and made me try on any and all watches I was interested in while documenting the model numbers.
I then received an amazing Rolex catalog. I have four different Rolex models in mind as I begin to assemble my collection. I am confident that I will do that over time. Even though I did not leave with a Rolex, Erica left me with strong expectations that she would soon be able to locate my...
Read moreWe give our highest recommendation to Wickersham Jewelers. When we purchased a beautiful Rolex in 2019, they had an amazing selection of fine watches to choose from. We found just what we were looking for, and they sized it perfectly to fit. More recently, although we have moved far away from Bakersfield, Wickersham cheerfully and promptly updated the insurance appraisal for our Rolex. If you are looking for a full service jeweler who will take care of you, even long after the sale, Wickersham is your jewelry specialist! Great folks to do...
