I get a promotional/marketing email from a very large AD, displaying a selection of hot Rolex models inviting me to explore them.

Why?

maybe I am and just don't know it, like I do feel special sometimes like you know people look at me in the streets, might give them a call and demand a Tiff OP41, they obviously know I am the main man.

No bait and switch here, just straight on “the list”, it’s called hedging your bets.
