Declined list
What have you been offered by your AD that you have respectfully declined and are there any that you regret passing on? I’ve passed on a TT SD43, Exp II black dial, GMT Batman twice, and a pink dial OP 36 for the wife. Only one I regret passing on was the OP 36 but the wife wanted a tennis bracelet instead…

All new GMTs, various Daytonas, black dial subs, YM, olive dial DD in RG and WG. YG and WG subs. Although I REALLY regret passing on the blue dial wg sub. Only did because I have the TT blue dial sub.
Just have to know when to pass. I’ve had the BLNR on my wrist several times and it just doesn’t work for me. |

White gold blue face Daytona about a year ago used but fresh from Rolex service for $35k! Still regret that decision.

BLRO. I passed as it didn’t look as nice on me as I would have imagined based upon pics here and it was the gentlemanly thing to do as I knew the next person on the list, they wanted it way more than I did.

When I read the title of this thread, I thought an AD was declining a buyer....

Was told 3 years ago that my AD could get me a Hulk with a few months wait. Also offered a white steel SkyD last year but passed on it. Not sure if I fully regret turning down the SkyD though.

In July 2020 I was offered and declined a BLNR on Jubilee. Last week I picked up my BLRO on Oyster. Worth the wait for me.
I've also been offered a TT white Sky dweller, which I gratefully accepted. |

Declined a TT Daytona about 18 months ago. Lovely watch for someone, just not me.

I've past on a Batgirl, Explorer I (2X), Rootbeer, Bluesy and Sea Dweller as I own four of the five so I left them for the next lucky person.

Good point. My AD called me a few months ago and offered me a Rose Gold RG Rootbeer 126715CHRN solid gold black and brown GMT Master 2. I had just bought one 1 week prior from the grey

Good on you. I would have loved to be there to see the face of the SA when you said no. They must have been shocked

Have never not been offered anything I did not request and then waited a long time for, so I have not been in a position to decline a watch offered by an AD thinking I might like it. It does happen as shown by the many threads here that folks were offered hard to get pieces just out of the blue by their ADs.
