Question on being in the "waiting list"

[itim]

My wife got the call for a 77350SR after putting her name 2 years ago and not really bothering to follow up on it.

So being a good husband that I am, I decided to tag along to the AP house. She purchased her watch and then registered interest for a 15551OR.

When the bracelet was getting resized for my wife, the sales lady asks am I interested in anything. I said yeah of course the Jumbo blue dial - unsurprisingly shot down. Then she says may be she can put my name down for 15510 black dial. I say of course, that is also really nice, thank you and typed my details into the iPad.

My question is:
1) Is that it and I am now on the waiting list? I just have to wait however many years to be allocated a 15510? It would be super to have a 15510 at retail price but I am not desperate enough to buy a Code 11.59 to ensure it happens.

2) Is there non-monetary hoop that I can and should jump through to make the allocation comes faster (I am assuming that I am now in the list or this is the wrong thinking)?

Much appreciated in advance for your comments.
