AD offering me a several watches?
Hello Fellas,
I have been on the “waiting list” for a Daytona ceramic white dial since 1918 so I decided to check in with my AD. He said things are looking better and I should be getting the call somewhere between 2050 and 2060. I couldn’t hold my excitement so I asked if he had anything else in stock without a waiting list and he said he currently has a Yachtmaster II in steel, a 2 tone steel and 18k sub, a ceragold Daytona with black dial and a white gold MOP diamond dial Daytona. Are these hard to get?. I’ll be glad to pass on the info if anyone is interested. |

Odat, I seem to remember you paying upfront for a SS Daytona from a small market dealer a couple of years ago. How did that work out?

That’s correct. After 2 years of being on that list and paying a 50% deposit, and still getting the “it could be a couple more years” generic answer, I gave up and canceled. I put my self on a different waitlist shortly after I paid that deposit that did not require a deposit and that didn’t go well either. Still waiting!. Honestly, I don’t think I’ll see one anytime soon. I have a Navitimer 01 that I enjoy greatly in the mean time.

My guess is they just don't make enough Daytonas for the number of buyers out there. Yes, I know the asking price on the secondary market seems high, but unless you are a regular client at the AD, the watch remains difficult to get at MSRP.

Lucky man!. I haven’t purchased anything from the dealer I had a deposit with. I would have if he had anything I liked but he doesn’t. I guess it makes all the difference. Enjoy yours!. It’s a beautiful watch!

There is no lack of 'trusted' Grey's, I would be looking there if in the market to buy an unobtainable from AD.
