I almost gave up on Rolex : Third incoming in a month or so : BLRO

For years now, I haven’t even attempted to even try to join the "game" and tried other brands such as Omega and Cartier. My interest suddenly went back and a few months ago and began making rounds....

So I went to the mall to purchase a Ranger from a Tudor AD. Of course, I walked in the Rolex Boutique of which I have no history with. Prior to doing so, I pulled out the business card of the salesperson I met last month as I don’t remember his name. Trying to strategize of what to say if you know what I mean.

So I walked in and said Mr “last name”! “first name” good to see you. Of course, he had no idea who I was. Then casual conversation went on, allocation this, allocation that, what you have purchased before from us, etc…

So went on and mentioned a milestone…. being honest and just myself. He even asked me what pieces I currently have. I’m not going to disclose the Rolex Boutique’s name but the rep had me scan a QR code to register my interest. He game me tips like best to input a BLNR as I have better chances. Wife walked in while is on the phone, I believe the rep even tried to verify the milestone I mentioned.

Rep kept on going in and out of the back room, must have been three or four times while I was registering. Usually like any AD, closure comes in by now with “Please try again next time.” He finally walked out with an empty tray so it seemed. He discretely told me to uncover the flap, and put it back immediately and don’t let the folks behind me see it.

I was so shocked and was literally in tears!!!!!! I honestly think that they actually have stock in the back, saving it for their high roller clients.

Long story short, walked out with this with no purchase history at all…
