Lucky day at the AD today

After calling all the ADs in the LA area, one actually texted me 30 minutes later and said she had a piece to offer me. Was looking for a stainless DJ 41. I know its nothing crazy but months ago this wouldnt really be possible. All the other ADs i spoke to did the usual, contact info and waitlist etc. Just a great feeling getting at retail!! Cheers

Congrats! That smooth bezel is absolutely growing on me. It's looking much better in wristshots than on the stock photos.

Congratulations - is it the camera angle or does the watch look more like a DJII rather than a DJ41?

This is the best! Congrats! Did you have any preexisting relationship at the AD or was it simply a cold call?

Congrats! I went by an AD today and they told me their Rolex rep told them they are expecting a 30% increase in deliveries starting later this year. Might be something to that as I keep seeing that number floated around.

Congratulations on your black DJ41! Looks great with the smooth bezel and oyster bracelet. Your persistence paid off. Some of these AD's will have you on wait lists for years and you may never hear back. Wear it in good health. Cheers!
