Which is harder to get BB58 or 114060?

Just wondering which is harder to get - between the BB58 and 114060 - typical wait times?

I was told a year on the SubC, two years on the BB58 at the same AD (lists closed). I sometimes feel like the ADs are trolls and just give out random timelines.

Well U.K. AD's:

- Don't know when the next Rolex delivery will be
- Don't know what watches will be in the next delivery
- May get as few as zero of the hottest SS watches in any given year
- Don't know how many people on the list will actually turn out to be serious buyers
- Don't even know (in the case of Aurum, so 75% of UK AD's) how many people are on the list

So whilst I think most AD's, rather than trolling, are just decent enough people trying not to piss potential customers off too much, it's no wonder that they are not able to give punters any kind of reasonable estimate for watch allocations.

I cannot give much insight to things in the UK, but for my AD they have only gotten one BB58 in from the launch and in the same time frame two Subs.
