100% depends on your relationship with your dealer. I waited 0 days for one, they called me one day randomly and asked if I wanted one.

One approach is asking how many they received in the last year.
Then ask approximately how many people are on the list. This can give you a ballpark of what to expect. This approach falls apart if Rolex stops sending as many watches though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I've always wondered how does it work with an AD... As much as you might have a good relationship with this sales person, I'm sure the other sales person in the store will probably want to get his/her hands on that set for his/her own customer. Who gets 'priority' or how does the allocation actually work? Purchase history? How much 'power' the sales staff that you know has?

Do you feel paying 100% up front will move me to the front of the line versus someone who is a big buyer but only put a little down or put nothing down? To be honest, I'm not an AD guy. I like to have stuff now. That being said, I'm not paying $5k ransom to a gray for this watch. I don't feel it's worth that. I have my limits.
I paid about $1k more (than MSRP and tax) for my TT CHNR to a gray (paid like $15,900 versus $14,900 or so that an AD would have charged with tax) but I feel that was justified given the new movement, new style, etc. I still feel real good about that deal. |
