116500LN Availability

[_danny]

Long time, first time.

What's the availability of the 116500LN these days? Can I realistically get one from my AD in NYC? Will I be waiting for a year?

Thanks!

Most ADs won't even take your money at this point. So there's no telling how long the wait would be.

I don't know--call him as I don't know your AD.

Welcome to the forum. It's probably not going to happen anytime soon.

If you're tenacious and lucky, you might start calling AD's from around the state or neighbouring states. If they have one that they'll sell be prepared pay in full and travel.

Good luck.

Min 1 year (if you're lucky but that depends on the relationship you have with your AD - so that could go up or down)

If you don't have current relationship with an AD, I would guess 2-4 years (?) and that's assuming they will put your name on a "list".

For example, i've heard that one AD in NYC has over 400 people on the list and the AD gets about 4 per month. do the math.

But its really a total guess at this point. No one really knows not even the AD themselves

For a year? In New York? Try 3-5 years.

Are you willing to pay over list? That'll get you one asap.

For most people, one year waiting estimate is too optimistic. However if you are willing to place orders to buy >100k $ other watches, most ADs will probably find you one in a few weeks.

Alternatively if you are desperate to get one pony up the extra 5K for one of the hundreds being sold everywhere except an AD and save yourself over 95K.

Still scarce at retail. No. More than 1 year is probable.

UK 4 Years :-( , 51 on the list at my AD but I'm 5th on the new imaginary sea dweller list :-)

I personally think it depends if you are interested in the black dial or the white dial......I prefer the black dial, and got a great price on a slightly used piece. To me it was worth the small premium.

I don't think I could justify the white premium at this time though.

Did the same thing only with white. The wait could be a long one.

Zero.
No, not anytime soon.
That would be a conservative estimate.

Good luck,
