Here is the line to buy Rolex – HegnarOnline

Larger premises in store on Karl Johans gate contributed nicely to revenue growth for Watchmakers Bjerke last year, Finance writes newspaper.

A total turnover of the four stores for 112 million in 2014, which was strong 30 percent more than the year before. Profit after tax went from 1.4 million to 4.8 million.

At the end of April, the watchmaker Halvor Bjerke five percent ahead of budget, which is based on local sales this winter.

No tax sales
Due to high tax rates are net prices in Norway is relatively good compared to many other countries. Therefore, it is part of foreigners who use the opportunity to buy exclusive watches in Norway. Particularly Chinese have been a large customer group.

– Almost exactly goes 23 percent of sales to foreigners but some Norwegians who shop here can also conceivably take clockwise exports, explains Halvor Bjerke Finansavisen.

Another reason why foreigners acting here is that they often find models that are sold elsewhere. These include expensive watches from Patek Philippe. Expensive, handmade watches are mostly always sought after and popular models sell out quickly. Watches of brand Rolex in price ranges from 50-60,000 is however not so easy to obtain.

Bjerke get into Rolex watches a couple times a month, but most are already pre-ordered and disappear again before they have been placed in the display case.

When Finansavisen visited the store was practically empty for the most popular Rolex models, but Bjerke do not think there is any great loss if customers have to wait a few weeks.

Appreciates customer relationship
Watches price range 100,000 to 500,000 kroner is commonplace, but there is not anybody who is allowed to buy these watches. The most exclusive manufacturers have lists of their customers, and you have to be able to demonstrate a track record of being able to book the most coveted models.
