First piece you're offered? So not just any piece sitting in the cases....

You will see plenty of ladie's datejusts. You going to buy one?

Or you going to ask the SAs and see what they have in back to offer you?

We need clarity...

epicurus · 18 May 2021, 10:54 PM

Yellow OP 41. 👍🏻

We need clarity...

Cases and window displays typically have a "good" assortment of L-DJ28, DJ31, TT DJ36, TT YM37/40, Cellini, DD36/40, and a few YMII.

The challenge is to walk in, and take whatever I'm offered from the back -- no questions asked. It could be DISASTROUS!

I visited 1 AD last week, going to another this week. Trying to get on the non existant list that exists for a Polar white explorer II lol. Going to be a forever piece. A f-u to the naysayers piece that doubted me through the years.

Really getting anxious for this one; when is the big day again?

VacherObsessive · 19 May 2021, 12:07 AM

Will the OP wear a hidden cam to prove the whole thing happened (when it happens) ?

Love this idea!

You should film this so we can watch it unfold

rossi46 · 19 May 2021, 12:32 AM

In case it hasn't been mentioned yet - I'd take a OP36 in blue or green off your hands :)

Handey0465 · 19 May 2021, 12:45 AM

For the record....

This idea is already being done by MANY people trying to boost their sales history.

They just aren't talking about it. They simply come home and list the watch on TRF for sale.

asiparks · 19 May 2021, 12:50 AM

OP: What is the watch/es you love, that if offered you will not be giving up ? Just so people don't get their hopes up for watches that you know you'll want.

That's very nice of you.

From his initial post, the OP is not looking to make a profit. He’s not gouging if he sells new at MSRP. I think that is OPs point.

GolfJunkie · 19 May 2021, 02:42 AM

This is a good idea and a very nice gesture from the OP.

Let me know if you come across a 40mm YM slate dial

KBM · 19 May 2021, 03:06 AM

So you'll buy the watch that is made available to you by the AD you visit, regardless of model?

mimariani · 19 May 2021, 03:16 AM

WG DD would be amazing :)

GONZO2LR · 19 May 2021, 03:20 AM

you guys are killing me...i am falling out of my chair laffing.....Polar...heheheee..

capital · 19 May 2021, 03:21 AM

Nice OP! OP 41 Turquoise for me please

solesman · 19 May 2021, 03:22 AM

OP 36 Turquoise dial would be incredible.

You'll probably hate the yellow dial OP 41 you end up with. I'll give it a good home.

ny_yeti · 19 May 2021, 03:58 AM

what a very cool, generous idea/offer, good on you, sir!! Super curious how this plays out!!

If by some act of God you come across the submariner 126610LN, I would be thrilled!!

Dhiren · 19 May 2021, 04:01 AM

Great Idea ! It’s a very very nice thing to do. I did for a SS Daytona and for A root Beer.
The gentleman flew down from England to India for a day to pick up the Daytona.
The Rootbeer was picked up by the lucky lady in SFO from the AD

I'm in for a DJ, blue dial, smooth bezel if that's what you score and you want to pay forward. Great idea.

Jfullm42 · 19 May 2021, 04:14 AM

Haha this is awesome, I really want a yellow, coral or pink OP36! I was lucky enough to get a Turquoise at retail, but I want the pink and yellow or coral too. I have 3 girls and would love to pass down 3 different color OP36's to them
