Incoming!
A few months ago I posted my first incoming AP
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=671058

Decided that watch really was not for me. I sold it (at a slight profit ). Since selling it I contacted my local boutique and was able to get on a waiting list for a 26331ST with blue dial. The boutique is estimating 3-6 months.

Having this long wait ahead of me, I needed something to scratch the itch. Was visiting a client and had a chance to pick up this complete set for an amazing price. Planning to wear it until the 26331ST is ready for purchase.

Congrats I had that exact ROC, lovely piece and very dressy too in that classic white and brown combo. I think a white rubber would look terrific with that, esp in summer.

Lovely! How is the leather strap? Does it fit as well as the Offshore's rubber?

Hi, can I ask which boutique you were able to get on the waiting list? I called the Westime FL boutique and they weren’t taking names.

Thanks

And so here you have a prime example of those VIPs that get priority from ADs, only to flip and sell a watch within a weeks time... well done, you make life miserable for the rest of us who just want to own an AP for life!

What are you going on about?

It sounds like he purchased the first AP from a current owner...how exactly is the OP making life miserable for ‘us’?

I plan on keeping the 26331ST when the AD comes through. Only planning on flipping this one as I can not justify keeping both. I did not buy this current watch from an AD. AD is no longer selling 26320OR.

I missed that part, apologies! Hope you get your desired piece and enjoy this one, it’s hefty!

You’re a prime example of a whiner and an entitled crybaby.
