Where Rolex has control is over the distributors--not the consumers.
As a consumer, you can buy a watch anywhere and import them to the US subject to the customs rules of the countries involved.
But what Rolex can do is cut off supplies to distributors that it finds are shipping products to consumers or other resellers inside the USA.
That's why businesses outside the US won't ship you a Rolex--they fear you might be working for Rolex and if they do Rolex will cease to do business with them. And many watch sellers would go out of business if Rolex cut them off!
