BLNR Wait
I put a down payment on my first Rolex (BLNR) at my AD 2 months ago. Any idea on how long the wait for these can be? Seeing the pics and reading posts on the forum is not making the wait any easier 😎

If in the US shouldn't be too long (maybe a couple of weeks). Good luck and enjoy when you get

Yes my AD says the wait would be about a month. I'm trying to stop myself from putting a down payment, so this isn't helping either enjoy the piece it is awesome

Weird. I got mine within 24 hours and I'm not a high value AD customer.

Three years ago when I got my BLNR I called several AD's until I found one 40 miles away that had just received one, dropped everything I was doing and rode out to get it. I would have preferred to use my local AD 2 miles away but at the time they said the waiting list was 5 deep and likely a 3 month wait.

Went to two in the Northern Virginia area this weekend and neither had any BLNR's in stock. I'm going to be on full search in Italy in two weeks.

Thanks for all the input. I guess I'll give them another call tomorrow. I called about a month ago and the only info they had was that it was on order. This is a gift from my wife. Had she known it was gonna be this long, we probably would've just called around.

I waited 6 months for mine in the UK (I live in Australia but was visiting).
However, when I visited Seattle the local AD had one in stock constantly from Dec to end Jan. |

I'd ask them for a firm date and then walk if they don't deliver. They're readily available now, and it shouldn't be a struggle. Awesome gift from the wife by the way.

With every pick up post being BLNR's lately I thought they were readily available everywhere.

Rolex boutique in Wailea, Maui had one in the case just a few days ago. I'm sure they can overnight it to you.

I've seen 2 at every AD i visited in the past week. It shouldn't be hard to obtain at this point. Just keep calling around. I'm sure an AD within your area will have one.

So I called my dealer this morning. He said that Rolex has been in the process of switching over their US computer system to be more compatible with the Swiss system. He said they let they stock supply dwindle to make it easier. He said they are in the process of getting caught back up and it shouldn't be much longer.

If all your ADs have them in the window is it just not popular where you are or I am guessing your ADs don't have the client base for them? |
