Got two calls!
After talking with several resellers, I was offered a 2016 Sub Date for $14,995. Second call later this morning was from my AD offering me a new 2022 with a insert in my favorite color for $10,600.... Easy choice.....

Congrats! Will get one of those over the next year to add. Love the green and contrast with black.

both happy for you and jealous of you...thats quite the turn around.

Do you mind me asking how long you were waiting for? Did you express interest in the LV or just a sub in general? Do you have a significant spend history with your AD?

Waited two weeks... Two weeks ago met the AD saleslady and expressed interest in ANY Submariner. Yesterday I made a purchase while having my wife's gold datejust cleaned. Today I got the call that my first choice had arrived..... Lucky.. Over the past few months, I called many AD's and very few even wanted me to put me on a list with some telling me to call back next year.... I think the secret to getting one is visiting the AD in person and establishing a relationship. While I was there purchasing the Sub, I made a $1K purchase for my wife to help show my appreciation....

Nice when an AD comes through like that. Just had a similar experience.

Wow that was a pleasant surprise!!! Imagine if you would’ve gone gray and a week later you get offered the watch you just bought!

Enjoy it! Lovely watch
