Rolex is readily available these days

For the last couple of months, my AD called offered me DD white gold blue dial, then Submariner then DJ 41. I didn’t need all of those watches but I bought the submariner for my dad. Not sure if Rolex churning out more watches or people just don’t have extra cash for luxury watches anymore.

If I send you my cell phone number, would you call forward those calls? Your AD likes you best.

When u can get a Pepsi, Batman, blue dial sky or a kermit within 1 week of asking for it…. I’ll agree with you. Till then…. Doesn’t seem so easy. I’ve been asking for a kermit for my boss for a few months now with no luck….. and I have big spending history with my Ad.

Where are you located?

I was laughed at when I randomly dropped in a rolex boutique in the OC- I have no purchase history with them and wanted to build a relationship. Why cause multiple ADs are better than one.

Kermit wait - SA pretty much told me to F off and go back to my AD
DJ - 6-12 mnths

Shocked she wouldn’t want a new customer.

I don’t think those results are typical for the average person.

You make a valid point. I’m just curious when you say big spending history, have you cracked the 400k range?

No brainer acquisition. 63% markup and free ship. Problem is I’m realizing 17 might be enough.

It's happening !!
Same sound here, the difference now, imo, is that some AD needs more cash for investing in guideline of Rolex so by magic, watch appears it will speed up !

Yeah, no. Even with previous Rolex purchase history, my SA finally told me a few weeks ago that literally after 2 years of waiting for a 124060 Sub, I am not getting one. Too many people ahead of me waiting. This was supposed to be for my 50th this past April and up until that point I was always told no worries, that's plenty of time and I should be able to get one in time for my birthday. At least he was finally honest and told me to go pound sand. LOL

Some are readily available, depending on who you are and if they want to sell it to you. Same as ever.

This is big news! Spend a quarter mil in a year and a half and AD will offer you a Sub!

OP it's only because I was called first and turned them down. (In fact I'm pestered weekly by ADs because they think I'm on some imaginary "list", good grief. I did host a Tequila tasting once, in hindsight that was probably a mistake )
