Its no different with watches. You've got to pay in order to play early.
I remember PT Cruisers were this way when they came out. No idea why.

They will pay, and they will have a chorus of followers telling them, "Do it!", "Life is short!", "It's just money!", and the like.

You're right, there's always someone willing to play ball. And the game continues.



Desperation is a hell of a drug.

I’ll go with Matt. I think Ken (HL65) will be the first if not in the first handful of customers to receive theirs. Those of which will pay retail. For those who buy grey, I don’t know. Lol

There are some big heavy hitters on the forum who have AD relationships spanning decades. They’ll be first, and rightly so! Can’t wait to see the incomings!!!

i think Ken will be the first incoming that happens to someone we "know". There will probably be a few random incomings from people we have never heard of first.

Think it will be really quickly, like today and some random lucky guy in Japan will beat Ken to the punch.

Well I think that having just read the other thread for an incoming.

IIRC didn't we already see a Middle East prince already wearing one on TRF before this thread even started, or does that not count?
