Happy hear this. I’ve come to find even the ones who act as through they are your friend etc never really are. There is always something fishy going on. Really odd practice and scary part is they are all really good at it. I would prefer they were more honest. It’s disappointing when you discover their lies.

Congrats man, but the whole AD behavior was outrageous... especially the extortion attempt to force you bundle. You wait 3 years and suddenly when you demand your down payment back they get your watch next day, what a coincidence. If it was me I would never bought anything else from them in the future.

My theory on these situations is that all the ADs are liars. They are hoarding the watches now. Yes I’m sure deliveries are down, but they are hiding them. Wouldn’t be surprised if each AD has 2-3 Daytona’s and skyD in the back. Not to mentions subs. That would also explain some of the “lucky” incomings or times where you knew someone and got a watch immediately. It’s a lie the manager has to perpetuate and they all do it well. I don’t trust any of them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congratulations on obtaining your Daytona. Love the third picture you posted in your car. As far as your AD, you handled it well. They were willing to take your money in the form of a deposit, yet seemingly unwilling to honor their commitment to you until you pushed back.

Thank you all!! Finally back home and enjoying Easter Sunday (and the hockey game)!
ADs do and are receiving the desired pieces in their shipments (Daytona's and Sky-Ds not so often - although this AD did receive one White dial in January and this one they sold to me in April). I feel very lucky to receive the piece (and my other pieces) from both my ADs. Yes, the AD did play games and gave me false information over the years and even tried to make me bundle the piece. I had to stay firm and not let this happen to non-big spenders/non-VIP clients (as I am not) to their store. Even though the sour taste for this piece, I don't think that this AD would try the game with me personally again - but you never know. I am waiting for other pieces as well from them, so hopefully they will come through for me on those. It was definitely worth the wait and now a few more days until I receive the smartyendlinks to place my OFs on it. Thank you again to all for your kind words. I am just glad to own both dial configurations which was my goal since 2016 - just took a lot of patience.
