Getting a Specific Rolex Watch
Hi
Does anyone know what's the best way to get any of the below watches? 1. GMT Master II Pepsi or Batman 2. Submariner Date Hulk or Black 3. Daytona - Black of White. Which of the above are the most hardest to find? How is that some folks on this forum are able to get some of these watches especially as first time buyers? |

Depending on where you live in the US you should not have that much trouble obtaining a black Sub or a BLNR from an AD, even without a purchase history. A BLRO or LV will be tougher. A Daytona, forget it.

How are some folks over here able to get the Daytonas considering its rarity? I am curious to know how long some have actually waited or if this entirely about the purchase history. |

I found luck by sticking to a smaller, locally owned AD. The chains are terrible for this. The big stores are only interested in moving volume, not getting Joe Smith the watch he actually wants.
Got my Sub Date that way, now have a shot at getting a GMT. |

In the title you say specific watch.
Yet you name 6 watches, if you go to an AD with the attitude of naming most of the hot watches, you will be shown the door. You just sound like a flipper. |

Having just read the OP’s 6 posts, they have no idea of Rolex or watches in general, so probably is looking to flip.

From one of sm84's posts:
What are the other hot models from Rolex? Sounds quite 'flippery', right?

Hello!
Quote:
Find an established comedian (30+ years) and help him write a few seasons for his hit TV show. He'll gift you a Submariner and engrave something sweet on the back. Just be careful to not do anything lewd to your coworkers, or else you'll be forced to keep staring at your Submariner so people can see where your hand is. I have specific instructions on how to accomplish this, but the CIA prevents me from sharing them. The Boysenberry GMT chronograph. It's an incredibly rare release of the GMT+Daytona, designed by Rolex to appease flippers and save them the trouble of having purchase both. After a short while, though, the Rolex executives decided that they'd rather be caught surfing Gary Glitter's computer collection than give flippers the light of day. Thus, they stopped producing the Boysenberry GMT chronograph. If you can get your hands on one, you can flip it for 420% profit and give Pejman G. something to brag about in his spam emails. Quote:
Good luck!
