How many lady datejusts do I need to buy to score a GMT?

I've never bundled but I have a mother, a mother in law, two sisters, a wife, and a niece (she's 2). How many ladies datejusts do you think I would need to buy to score a SS GMT at the AD?

Subtract 1 for every precious metal model DJ you buy.

I believe the current equation requires that you reach 100 points. Points per model are below.

50 Day-Date
35 TT DJ (Men's or Ladies')
25 Ladies' SS DJ
20 Men's SS DJ
15 Oyster Perpetual
15 Any Cellini model

Why is Cellini rated so few points - I would have thought an AD would be delighted to get shut of the dusty Cellini from the back of the cabinet

New AD policy is that the customer now brings the champagne to the Sales Associate. That's just to get a seat at the table, the customer must then rouse the SA's interest by completing a rigorous background interview, and then finally lavishing multiple high limit credit cards upon the SA for lady DJs and other shiny trinkets you do not want.

I don’t think you need to buy 4 watches to get a GMT. Plus it also depends which one. The BLRO (Pepsi) is a bit hard, and unless you are a good customer, your chance are low to get one, but the BLNR is easier. The other thing, is being a good customers doesn’t mean you are restricted to Rolex, if your AD like most represent other brands, then you could get an Omega, Cartier etc... Those watches still count as elevating your customer status. But it’s also how and probably most importantly how much the AD likes you personally... be personable. My first new purchase at an authorized ad was for a 50th anniversary SeaDweller, then I got on the list for a BLRO and the Tudor GMT at the same time. ( I collect GMT’s. Got the SD in about 4 month, the Tudor about 4 month after it was announced and the GMT took 12 month from its Basel world announcement. Now I go preferred status, which means that the AD ask me what I would like. And the best part is that I only got watch I really wanted. But I do make an effort to keep the relationship alive, whenever I got to the mall where my AD is located I always stop by, chat for 5-10 minutes or if I find an interesting watch article I will text it... It isn’t actually something I only do with my AD, I do that with everyone I work with, neighbors, etc... I believe in building relationships it takes t8me but pays off.

Rolex Buyer Math

Buy 4 ladies DJ's @ $24k.

Lose $12k depreciation.

Get the "opportunity" to buy a $9k watch.

Done!

---

So...buy 6? IDK.

Yes, I admit it was a joke. You actually need 200 points.
