Does Anyone Know When AD's Receive Shipments?

Is it a certain week of each month or is it just random? I assume they get at least one shipment a month?

My AD usually gets theirs on a Tuesday. It used to be monthly, but now they seem to be getting it weekly.

I believe it’s monthly. Normally at the beginning of the month.

It would be a serious security concern for an AD of any brand to divulge any details of their delivery process/schedule. Loose lips sink ships.

What's the point of asking or knowing when they won't sell the watch to you?

My AD was on Friday (according to my salesman). It definitely will just vary depending on the location.

I think it varies on location/AD.

My local AD gets shipments every two weeks.They come in on Wednesday usually.

Pretty sure my dealer gets their’s on Thursdays. Not sure if weekly but definitely more than once a month.

Mine get a shipment about every two weeks. Arrival changes but it's on a Wednesday more often than not.

ADs no longer get shipments. Rolex sends their watches directly to grey dealers. Saves the trouble.

My AD seems to get them weekly. They've had new stuff in the case every time I've been back since the end of 2018.

Sydney rolex boutique told me monthly around the 15th. The hour glass said monthly though wouldnt divulge the date for obvious security reasons.

Three different ADs here said they all get shipments every Thursday. Usually later in the day. And sometimes they don’t go through it until the next day. The calls I get come between Tuesday and Thursday which leads me to believe they have an idea of what’s in the shipment.

You will know when an AD has got a SS Datona incoming, you will see the delivery guy has a couple of armed guards with him
