One just slipped away: SS Daytona White

@10:30 AM AD call - M series SS Daytona white dial arrived

@12:03 PM call AD back - Watch sold

Not sure why they call my work number instead of cellular. Anyway the manager reiterate the 1 hr rule, I wasn't mad, still at top at the list.



Someone in Dallas, TX is very happy at this moment....

It's not that bad...my SS Daytona blk dial was purchased last Nov. so it is only 6 mths wait.

The white dial SS Daytona would completed the collection. Seriously, no more watch afther this one (said same thing after buying the SS Subdate)

Good luck. I always say the next is the last. Got the itch again, but going to flip the SS Daytona in order to buy so the number of watches stay the same.

I would have to flipped 2 watches out of current collection to make room for the Daytona.

Oh well...guess I need a better paying job.

I had a similar experience at another J in town. I would take my business elsewhere. . .

So did you reiterate the "call my freaking cell phone" rule to the manager?

Too bad. At least you're being a good sport about it. I would have a hard time.

And for some reason, they keep calling my home number when I have given my cell.

I don't get it.

What is the expediency of getting it sold!? You can't give the #1 person on your precious list a few days to get back to you!?

Lame. Weak.

Hey, What is the 1 hour rule? Do you have 1 hour to call them back or 1 hour to pick up the watch?

You have 1 hour to call them back and to give them a credit card number to purchase it.
