Prestons of Bolton to open Rolex boutique in Leeds

This will be only the third stand-alone store in the UK for the Swiss watch brand.

The store will be designed by Rolex Geneva and will include sales areas on both the ground and first floor as well as a champagne bar and library. There wil also be a mezzanine floor, which will act as a work station for a trained Rolex watchmaker.

“Leeds is a dynamic city and to have the opportunity to retail Rolex from a stand-alone boutique is just wonderful,” said managing director Karl Massey.

The Leeds store has a preliminary opening date of June 1 2012.

Rolex has two other exclusive boutiques in London, located at Bond Street and One Hyde Park.
