Every time I walk into an AD, the staff is pre-occupied with their free refills from Chick-fil-a or griping about dealing with people who look but do not buy. You can go on TZ right now and buy a Z-serial Sub in the low $4k's, get it serviced and still be well ahead of buying from an AD.

Heck, for new Sub money, go get a 5513 and watch it appreciate.

When I go to an AD to see a hot watch, first of all they do not have it, secondly you can not have a chat about the watch 'cause the sales person has no clue what the hell you are talking about.
When I was in Key West a few weeks ago and wanted to check if a "Pepsi Bezel" GMT 16710 that was in the window of Congress Jewelers, the sales person (pretty young woman with harpoon) called the sales manager who was the Rolex "expert",
I asked...Could you please tell me ....is this a Z serial or an M serial GMT..???
...Sir...was his responce with attitude....These letters and ...numbers (?) mean nothing and Rolex S.A does not use them, some private person came up with this idea with the letters (?)...they mean absolutely nothing.....????????????

Think about it,
...when the Rolex sales people at the AD's store have no clue
and can not really perform their duties as well as totally unable to provide a half way decent customer service (which you deserve) why should you go there..???
Never Hot stock available, No information, No knowledge, No love for the watch, No Manners....No No No No.
But hey... I will fight for your right to have a choice !!
My god...I sound like a bloody politician now.
Have a nice day
