About a month ago, I had no intention of buying a watch. But a couple of life events later, I've decided to carpe the diem, and started to look into Rolex.

I spent some time doing some online research, and settled for the stainless steel daytona with black dials (I don't have facebook or instagram and don't follow the trends I just love the engineering behind the movement).



Fast forward to today, I've been to 5 countries, visited a dozen of store and it's been a huge disappointment, I'm headed back home empty handed. My local AD told me they receive about 5 pieces a month, but in the meantime, they add 50 folks to the waitlist.



So the question here is, what are my options?

- can I enroll on a waitlist with an out of state AD? Do I need to be present?

- how about AD from different countries? Once available, can I buy over the phone and have them ship it?

- I don't have anything else to purchase at the moment (maybe more watches in the future), so I'm not sure how to build a relationship with an AD

- 2nd hand is out of the question


Noobs alright

Go grey then post the pics. Anything else is just you wasting your own time. Sort of like visiting a dozen ADs is 5 countries

And, if prices have actually softened then your timing is impeccable

Go get the watch, you will be glad you did. For the engineering behind the movement! You’ve already waited a whole month
