5-2019 any idea on current waitlist for sd43 12660?

Hi all:

Hopped on the waitlist at a local AD today (Staten Island, Gerald Peters) than read the older threads on the waitlist in here stating 20% down would get you in a month but this was a year + ago.

So wondering on current waitlist info for these in general?

thanks

I got the call a couple weeks ago, nearly two years after I first talked to them about it. I went gray long before that. But I see secondary prices have jumped so not sure what I would do now - might get on the lists and wait a bit.

Thanks my thoughts, exactly. Will inquire if any changes, if prepay 20% can special order etc. and post back here after I visit.

I paid over only on one watch my FPJ Bleu and glad I did as the waitlists were closed at 5 years on the list and FPJ stopped production on Bleu, froze the waitlists until he starts it again. Watch is way over what I paid above list for it now.

So hope abounds as most still seem to target pepsi-batman, I was hoping this slides through ;-)

Visited the AD (Gerald Peters) he said they were getting 1 a month (but) he didn't reply when I pressed how many before me awaiting the 126600, so I will wait a few months than ask again . Also, have another friend with a great AD down south that might get me one .. all and thank you

I think they come in fairly often and aren’t as desired as a few other SS sports watches. I’ve gotten the call for one three times in past 11 months, pulling the trigger on the third offer.

My impression from people I know that have relationships w ADs say they’ve been offered them regularly. I purchased one on a walk in from an AD a couple months ago. That was just a luck box, but they seem more readily available than the gmts and Daytona’s which I’ve never been offered at retail.

I would agree, but there is a wait see above in the thread some waited long. the secondary market has a 2-3k premium on them, if they were so available that would not exist imo.

I would say less of a demand than the GMT's, then the Daytona's. did see some Daytonas over time in the AD but TT.

The seconds market is inflated at least 20% above dealer pricing... the red letter sd trades at $12k bnib all day. I’d pay little attention to advertised prices.

Really? I'd buy one right now for $12k - can you point me in the right direction? I've been looking and haggling for months - haven't had one offered to me under $13.4k.
