Put a deposit for a Hulk submariner
I put a 30% deposit at my local AD yesterday. They’re quoting me a wait time of 6-8 months. Did I make the right decision of putting a deposit?

I wouldn’t have. But if it helps secure the watch for you so be it. Good luck!

No idea.
What else could you have done with the money over that period of time? What guarantee do you have regarding the quoted delivery time, if ever? What is their policy regarding getting your deposit back? Not for me

Well putting 30% down really isn’t going to affect my finances in any way. The only reason I did it is because they’re going for over 12k in the grey market. So I thought it was a good investment

What is your expected rate of return on this "investment"?

As in, you wanted to save $3k over gray prices or you intend to flip it when it arrives and make $3k?
