Got the Call for a Mint - Turned it Down
Got the call this morning for a 36mm DJ in the configuration I am looking for (smooth, Jubilee, steel) but in the mint dial, which is not the dial I want.
I appreciated the call, but politely declined. Told my SA to go ahead and make someone else's day, so hopefully someone else here on TRF gets an exciting call today! I know the mint dials are fairly sought after, but it's just not for me. I know everyone wants fluted, but just wanted to add another anecdotal data point that hopefully points to things opening up a bit. |

Cool post. I like the mint but black sounds like the better choice in this case.

Same here. I really wanted a two-tone on jubilee, but was offered a mint green on oyster. Turned it down, and within days, got the one I wanted.
The tide is turning - hang in there and wait for the one you want! |

I would only buy what you want. Black or silver dial is a better choice to me.
