I'm annoyed with my AD

Happened to walk into my local AD the other day just to see what they had and also to keep the rapport alive. I've already bought 2 rolex watches from them in the past so they know me well. We talked about current affairs, availability of watches etc. Then out of the blue I was told they had a CHNR out the back. I said that I'd never seen one in real life and I would appreciate having a look.
The watch was brought from the safe. It was still in its coffin. I tried it on and under the lights in the store the colours just popped. I immediately fell in love. I was told I could buy it if I bought some jewellery aswell or a 36mm datejust.
I immediately found myself going from feeling very positive to a feeling of resentment and distrust. Earlier we had been talking about flippers and how bad they were for the industry and if anyone ever flipped a watch they had sold they would blacklist them and yet not 15 minutes later the AD is doing something I consider to be just as underhand.
I left the store shortly afterwards calling out so the manager could hear, "I'd have bought that watch today if you'd let me".
I wonder what Rolex would think if they knew. It really puts you off the brand.
