First positive statements from an AD in a long time.

Just went to Tourneau/Bucherer in Arlington, Virginia. This time, when I asked about registering interest, they were very eager to take my details. To be fair, I have bought from Tourneau before, but I didn’t think they really care, being a large chain.

I made a comment about “I know the wait is basically forever but hopefully I eventually get the call”.

The sales lady kind of lowered her voice a little and shook her head and said “certain models are still very hard to get, but this particular model (SD43) isn’t one of them. For a repeat customer we should be able to source one pretty quickly - I think you’ll be surprised.”

Who knows, maybe just sales BS, but no AD has said anything even remotely encouraging to me in the last 2-3 years. So let’s see.

The also were fully stocked with Tudors, including the two-tone GMT on the bracelet. Almost pulled the trigger on that, but I think I’ll keep my powder dry for the Rolex.
