Another AD waitlist thread, but with some added extra thoughts and questions...
One of the previous posts the last couple days was regarding a forum member who got a SS Skydweller, then was asking about the wait time for a SS Daytona. In one way you would think getting the SS Skydweller would be a good sign they had a nice relationship with their AD, but based on some of the comments this also got me thinking. A lot of people seemed to mention or think by accepting the SS Skydweller, they used up their opportunity for the SS Daytona. Now here is where my thoughts are going. Is it better to give your AD a list, that includes all the hot pieces (assuming you really would like any or all of these). For example, SS Daytona in both colors, SS Skydweller, BLRO, BLNR, Metoerite GMT, Yellow/Green Daytona, etc. Or do you think it's better to just pick 1-2 of these and give your AD less options of what you might want, even though they are the tougher and more desirable pieces? Does it help improve your chances to get them? Your giving your AD less options, but will that help you in the long run achieve your ultimate goals if you really want a John Mayer Daytona, or a Meteorite GMT, white dial Daytona, etc. This is all assuming you already have a multi year relationship with your AD, maybe 2-5 years, and have already spent say 30-100k or so with them.
