Milgauss GV scarce??

Hello All, Seems like the GV is very difficult to obtain lately. Jared's have not yet seen one, Ben Bridge only four. Small AD's still waiting.
Will Rolex limit this watch?????

Randy, it's my understanding the Diamond Cellar has had a couple. Not very many.

Great hooking up with you BTW (that is one sweet Daytona!) I'm still thinking about an Ohio GTC.

Checked here in Nashville about everywhere, and no AD has even seen one as of yet. I was just in ATL this past weekend, and the folks at mayor's said the same thing. I've been on the list here for months and I'm contemplating just going forward with the white-faced Milly instead of waiting.

I tried on a white milly and really liked it. I think it would look great both with a suit and casual clothes. If I wasn't saving up for a DeepSea I would definitely consider it (also I like having a date function on my watch).

I've talked to a great number of AD's and most have said they had only received one GV, and a lot of them hadn't seen any so far.

My AD indicated that they have had only a handful. They are a very large AD. The smaller AD indicated that they have not yet had a GV. They do indeed seem to be scarce. I have only seen one black dial but, I have seen several white dial.
