A bit more than the CAD equivalent, which would explain why we won't see too many over here...

Thanks for your reply :)

I'm guessing since you got yours on launch day you're a very good customer! Seems a bit ridiculous to be withholding papers from such good customers, but nevermind. Seems this is the new Rolex way!

Congrats on the lovely piece, but that is still a ridiculous requirement.

Not to say I wouldn't also agree with the ability to purchase one now

Wow. They truly are following through with trying to curb the grey market.

Congrats on the watch!

Those Pepsi’s are definetly a Choice of a New Generation! Those are sweet! Glad to see our friends in the U.K. getting quantities first!

Are dealers in the U.K. holding the warranty cards for a year?

This made me bust out laughing. My sentiments exactly.
I showed my wife this watch and told her the retail price and she said, oh wow, it's so cheap(price), why don't you get it....I then lol'd again. Hard to believe we can't give money to an AD for a watch in 2018.

Well done. I had the call last night and pick mine up next week when back from hols. Managed to see all of new releases at the Aurum launch on the 9th where they had some dummies to try on that night.

Exactly, LOL. Big congrats to the new owners. Beautiful GMT! My WG says “hi.” I’ll be patient and get the SS example someday, too.

So they keep something that belongs to you? How does that work?
