I have had some dealings with my AD over the last 2 days because of some unfortunate matter ( I may expose this matter here at a later stage depending the outcome )
Anyway , one thing lead to another and I just pledged to take a new 116610LN when they are available . My AD has already taken 2 other orders with each a 5000 euro deposit . No final price as yet ( expected to know by June ) Any more of us has succumbed to this temptation ? I will most likely sell it to some desperate one without patience as I still believe the SDDS is superior to the 116610LN . Well .. you never know I like it enough when I get my pawns on it .

EchoBlueUK · 7 April 2010, 04:01 AM

I have my name down - none of the AD's i spoke to require a deposit - They are happy for the business.

kahoot · 7 April 2010, 05:45 AM

I have ordered both black and green and with my dealer I am the first one on the list

spuds · 7 April 2010, 06:20 AM

In the queue for LN (4th) & LV (1st)....

rollypolly · 7 April 2010, 06:24 AM

man i need to get a better job to keep up with you guys!!

Fiery · 7 April 2010, 06:43 AM

I haven't ordered the new Sub, mostly because first I wanna see them in the flesh, and compare them against the SS GMT IIC. And only after then I'll decide which one should be my first Rolex. But I have a strange feeling that my ideal Sub would be a combination of the two new models: green gold dial + black ceramic bezel. We'll see...

rollypolly · 7 April 2010, 06:47 AM

well thats still better than me, i cant afford another! lol

i like the etching they have inside the watch that saids rolex all around... my sub doesnt have that... =/

Well , the datejust 2 is ok for dress up things but to be honest I must have worn it 5 times since I got it and my bloody AD has now told me twice that he was getting my new 116520 in the next week . Still not there !
No, I will keep all my watches , but I just said yes to that new one . Fat chance that one will be in before september . I may have sold "the contract" before that

My SDDS is still getting the bulk of the wrist time and I doubt that a new SUB will beat that . I really miss my 116520 must admit .

Brit78 · 7 April 2010, 06:57 AM

I should be getting the first one at my AD. Got the first 16610LV that they got, so why not get this one too.

It's not a limited production watch. Unless you're getting it at MSRP I see no reason to do so.

Jason71 · 7 April 2010, 02:18 PM

Not my cup 'o tea. I will not be buying either..........

superb · 7 April 2010, 02:47 PM

Not yet. I need to see the physical thing before i commit.

walds11 · 7 April 2010, 07:28 PM

I agree and you are a total jacka** if you put a deposit down.

Nicko · 7 April 2010, 07:40 PM

I won't be buying one, not only because I just bought my MB ML270 with cash

so no i am officially outta funds for a new watch.

No need to be insulting to anyone here, I don't think you fully understand how some things work here in Europe...Most ADs here in Spain require a deposit for something new like that.

Look my AD didn't ask me for a deposit and I will not pay over RRP for that watch, but that doesn't mean that I'm not a jacka** . Still I think if the economy picks up in the US and the USD gets even stronger against the Euro , I stand a good chance to lay that watch off with a little profit to some US based buyer that cannot wait to get one . Who will be the jacka** then ?

WatchForLife · 7 April 2010, 08:12 PM

I've got my name on the list at local AD. No deposit, no commitment to buy.

I think it is utterly clear who the jackass is.

Just in case there's any uncertainty, it's Walds**.

walds11 · 7 April 2010, 08:46 PM

I am not insulting anyone, just making a comment. If you have the funds to tie up for an unknown period of time, go for it and you'll be locked into the new model.

I am with you. It's a free market.

Cru Jones · 7 April 2010, 08:48 PM

About deposit, no deposit....

Does a deposit of that size mean you won't be paying over MSRP? And that you will be offered the watch in the order of receipt by the AD?

I could see how being on an AD list with no deposit/no committment to buy would just guarantee you, if you were the 3rd person on the list, to be the 3rd person offered to buy the new sub at MSRP + $1K, or something like that....
