Incoming Sea-Dweller 126600 surprise

Just thought I’d share my surprising story with you...
My wife and I will be going to Grand Cayman this week on vacation. Just for the heck of it I sent an email to the local GC AD via the Rolex website a couple weeks ago asking about the SD43. I received a reply that they of course didn’t have any in stock. I then replied to the email asking about a TT Sub. I was then asked for my phone number so the store manager could contact me about which models they had in stock.
The next day I was called and was told they did have a SD43 in stock!
I was told they wouldn’t hold it for me but would honor a credit card via a link and code, which I did.
My 126600 now sits in a safe until Wednesday!!
Honestly I didn’t expect this, what a surprise...
Just an FYI if you’re traveling, it never hurts to ask.
Best to all,
Joe
