HOw long til the 2019 Watches reach the ADs?

How long is it normally until the new watches start hitting the ADs (US) and how long do you expect the supply of older styles will be available.

I have a week old US AD order in for a 116234 (DJ36) and am wondering whether I will be able to get it or have to take a 126234. Newer movement but not available in my preferred White stick dial nor with the hidden crown clasp.

2024 or so. Just kidding of course. No idea but based on previous years it’s all over the place.

Usually the first incomings are around July.

Thank you, that tracks with what I was told by the AD. Likely to be able to fill that order with the desired as ordered 116234. Being a DJ 36 I imagine the pipeline has available watches flowing.

I feel fortunate that my tastes tend towards the Classic line and the 36 mm sizes although I did pick up an Explorer this week.

Good luck and good hunting to all that are chasing after the SS Professional models.

I got my 126711CHNR on the 16th May last year at my ADs Baselworld event.

So basically a month and half after Baselworld 2018.

I want to say May, BUT, from my past experiences with AD’s I really think mid summer, earlier summer if lucky enough.

silliness to say May.. the ones that arrive in May June or anytime this year, are already earmarked to VIPs.. So never is the current correct answer

Of you’re “in” @ the AD...May-June is when we see some incomings.

I didn’t see anything that’d be impossible for the well-connected buyer.

Of course the Pepsi meteorite could be an exception.
