Incoming…..
Got the call yesterday and picked it up today. Asked to be put on the list about 8 months ago shortly after they had gotten me a Daytona. Have been blessed to have a genuine relationship with my AD that was formed before all the current madness and it shows how the process can truly work with patience and sincerity.

She had helped me purchase many watches for myself and my family, and we have enjoyed them all. The latest one was for the old lady, and she wanted it because based upon her astrological signs (I know) she likes wearing red. Crazy thing is she doesn’t have any concept of how hard it is to get these things now…

Some pertinent info - this is a national retailer in a flagship location and she said this is the second red OP36 that has come through in two years. She also mentioned that known flippers and resellers are blacklisted from purchasing Rolex from them The current buying situation doesn’t look like it will ease up anytime soon.

Awesome watch and great to hear that flippers would be blacklisted!
