Dear Rolex: You are a Joke

[mannyv11]

I think it is very hard to blame Rolex for individual AD practices. Sure they could technically produce more daytonas, doing so they would also be scaling back the production of a different watch there are only so many hands in a Rolex factory even though many of the parts are machined.

I also find it somewhat funny when someone goes into an AD they have never gone into before looking for probably one of the hottest watches on the planet right now and get angry when they are told it is a long wait list or they can't put them on the list.

I work with 1 AD who is absolutely incredible, I put my name down the day the watch was announced and just received it a month or two ago. He was honest and upfront that I was on the list and that I would receive the watch just wasn't sure when due to some very heavy hitters being in front of me which I completely understood. I have also spent quite a bit of money there over the years and he put me ahead of some people who are quite famous.

My point is AD's are trying to keep their highest paying customers happy which I completely understand they are the ones that keep that dealers doors open. I would rather the dealer be honest with me that it is going to be a VERY long wait or won't bother putting me down at all because what is the point I will never get one from them because I have never purchased a watch there.
