If you wanted it you wouldn’t be undecided.

Have to agree perhaps some cannot think for themselves today.

Have you and the AD had a sit down to discuss just what it is that you want? I say this because my AD has a list of the watches I would like to add to my collection...plus each time I go in I discuss the for display only ones and identify one or more that I would like that perhaps isn't on my list. For example, 36 mm is too small for me. 38 and up only. I already have some so I don't want to duplicate. Unless it is a new movement ie from a 3185 to a 3285 in the GMT Master II. Open lines of communication are essential for a good experience, plus over time I have made another good friend. Just what is a discount dial from a AD.

Exactly this. my AD, including the SA and general manager are aware of the watches I would like to own. They are also aware that I can only buy perhaps two a year. I make it clear that I need time to budget for each one. This way, no one is disappointed when I do get the call. If you are open and honest about your goals, your AD is much more likely to accommodate you, on your schedule. Kat Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

The blue motif dial is special. It’s an offer that won’t be repeated given its discontinuance. If you are in a position to buy the watch, I would do.

Though choice, I was offered one as a walk in back in January and took it. Made it a little easier for me that mine was fluted bezel on a jubilee (my personal preference for DJ36) the dial is stunning and has got the most wrist time for me so far this year

OP is not undecided if he/she "wants" it. Only undecided whether to actually get it. Big difference. Generally speaking, everyone want a fancy, luxury car or a huge house, want is not the issue.

I meant discount dial from Rolex, the blue motif dial. And yes, I did mentioned to the AD the 41mm datejust that i purchased from them, it doesn’t sit right on my wrist. And it is a dial that I like but I don’t like the bezel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The only one thing that is missing the fluted bezel. Never have a smooth bezel DJ before. Concerned I won’t be able to get use to it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That’s a great looking dial. Works well with smooth bezel. Would look good in leather strap as well.
