A preowned steel? Or new ceramic bezel?

Congrats either way!

Congratulations! From other posts it sounds like London may be one of the more difficult cities world-wise to acquire Rolex in

The AD usually tells me that they don't know what is coming in there delivery before hand. I guess your AD knows he is getting a white dial Daytona next month.

Technically next month is only in a few days...I belive ADs get a list of what is headed their way a week before taking the shipment (might be a bit more), so both things can be true in this window.

Unless the AD said "IN A MONTH I can get you one..." as opposed to OP's "next month" statement.

I know the feeling. Have been waiting and waiting, and getting door after door shut... and sadly I’m not one wanting to buy from grays either...

That’s awesome. I didn’t read the entire title lol.

I just got the call for mine about a month ago as well. Actually my wife surprised me and coordinated it with my AD. It’s an amazing watch. You’ll love it.
