There is hope. Congrats!!! That is an iconic watch. Rolex has created an amazing legacy for the submariner date, across the decades.

Congrats and enjoy!

Meanwhile there are still folks trying hard to sell you the sob stories of how they are forced to give up on Rolex because “AD has nothing to sell.”

Im surprised at that find as well. Its where most of the Nationals & Redskins shop. I've was told they dont have any SS models and have a long wait list.

Congrats Sir!!!

That is very interesting. I wonder if this is a sign of things to come this year. Now that you have it in hand, can you ask the AD why they had one available to sell to you? Better yet, just go ask for a Pepsi.
