Thank you AD … and more bad news….
Picked up my new wrist buddy! Love the blue in the light!
AD told me Rolex is way behind in their shipments even for DJ etc
Then they told me they are shipping no watches at all in January. Who knows what’s up??

There's usually minimal if any shipments in January due to the holiday shutdown.

You guys may be 100% right about no shipping in January bc of the holidays. The way it was framed to me was that it’s something different. Either way it was humbling being offered a watch with the huge display cases empty. And I’m no whale by any means ( except for a few Covid pounds)

Congratulations on your new Bluesy. Also, it is a bad news when you are used to good news. No shipments from Rolex is business as usual.

I'm competing, the ADs here too had the information that said they had reached their DD36 and 40 cotas as well as the DJ's. So no more delivery before 2022, call all customers, repay the assets, ... !
