Let's just look at the UK and US and how coincidental the timing of supply issues are.
Interesting comment. Either way, this photo, if recent, perhaps foreshadows some better supply conditions globally. Hopefully it’s not a dry Christmas.

Picture taken no more than one week ago, in Legnano.
But don't book any flight yet, they were sold way before they were put on display. When asked to be put on the list for the Daytona they almost laughed at my face, and told me they get like 10 calls a day, and closed the lists long ago.

I am not sure how I would feel if my watch was tried by someone else while waiting for me to pick it up, but still...
Grey dealers don't really care...

LOL and that was the answer I was really looking for! Thanks for reading my mind.

While frustrating they put them out, it's pretty awesome to see them all in one display. I'd pay $10 to have seen that.

Hmm a Rolex museum - pay to see the current models..

Ciao! Off to google 'how to start a museum'
