I have been on waiting lists for a white dial Daytona and GMT Pepsi for more than a year and no luck yet. However, I was visiting my local dealer and I found a blue Datejust, could not resist. I love this watch! Just sold all my non Rolex watches and my goal to add a Daytona and Pepsi to my small collection. It seems that 4 watch collection would be a perfect balance, that other Datejust belongs to my wife.

So in other words the AD got you to buy a DJ to become a customer.
We call that "bundling".
Enjoy the DJ

I don't know, that seems a bit presumptuous. The blue dial SS DJ is still a highly desirable model, especially fluted jubliee. It's a great looking watch, and I think OP made a good call.

Congrats OP!

Thanks and I agree it was not bundling. I just wanted it and it has been hard to find as of late.
