Thanks everyone. Weird couple of days for sure.

They said this is the first regular Submariner that they have gotten since before Christmas.

Congrats!! Glad it worked out and it’s a beautiful piece!! Side note can anyone help me and the OP with why when you resize pics from an iPhone they get turned sideways? I know some say use Tapatalk but I actually prefer reading TRF in the desktop version on my phone instead of through Tapatalk and would love not have to switch back and forth. Sorry if it’s a newb question but since it’s his thread and he asked first I figured I’d second the request for some insight.

I’m glad it worked out for you. Still baffled at all the naysayers on the other thread. Sounds like it was already in the dealer’s hands when they called you and you passed whatever the “test” was. Enjoy your new watch.

Thank you.

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more it seemed like vetting. The fact I told him no on the wire and that I would wait I think actually worked in my favor.

He made several comments about how people come in and try to offer cash, side money, bribes, my mom is dying, my son in a wheelchair was mugged, etc...He said its crazy.

I also refused a Sub Date a few months back. I also think that was a test since he knew I didn't want it.

Congrats! I paid cash for my sub last summer; figured I would do them a favor by saving them from the CC fees. I thought the wire request seemed reasonable considering what you are receiving in return.
