Feasibility of buying these 3 at the same time?

I want to purchase a Sub ND 124060, JC DSSD 136660 or previous model, and a YM 40 rhodium 126622. Would this package deal be of any interest to an AD in a major city in the US or would this be next to impossible without previous spend history? Just want to know upfront if this is a high ask and to not get any hopes up.

I can't really see an AD going that I'm afraid. Sell 3 reasonably desirable pieces to someone they don't know (and may never see again as they've just fulfilled their entire wish-list), or make 3 of their already known customers happy.....

You may get lucky, but I think it's highly unlikely.

Wouldn't we all be buying three at a time if it were feasible? Think about it.

Think this will be a no go. Unless you are a giant spender.

Impossible. From the 3 you mention the DSSD is the easiest to get as a lot of people can’t wear it due to size and thickness.

Doesn’t matter what anyone here tries to tell you. There’s only one way to find out

Good luck

All at once probably unlikely just because even right now they are unlikely to have all in stock at the same time.

All during the course of a year, I think highly likely unless you are in UK/NYC/HK/Japan.

All doable over time, but not at the same time.

Highly doubtful IMO. Earlier this year I went to a bunch of ADs with a 4-watch bundle. It included only 1 Rolex, a Sub-Date (126610LN), two Omegas (Seamaster 300m & Speedmaster Moonwatch) and one Tudor (Black Bay 41). Other that the Sub, the three other models were not special and were readily available. The catch was that all four had to be purchased at the same time.

It was amazing, nobody bit! Endless BS on how difficult it was to get the Sub and it could take up to a year alone. They were more than happy to take my money for the others, but not the Sub. Total BS IMO.

You are asking for 3 hot models. You are just going to look like a flipper to them and they will never sell you a watch. Do you go up to a hot girl and immediately ask her to sleep with you? That's what you're doing. Asking for a threesome isn't going to improve your chances.

Can’t strikeout without going to bat. However, I think your odds would increase buying one at a time, asking for 3 will likely raise flags.

Just change 2 criteria and it’s very doable.

1. Forget the AD and go TS on TRF.
2. Double (or 3x) your budget.

Life’s too short to fiddle around if you really must have those 3 in your hands.

Bundling watches is generally to make it more attractive for the AD to sell to you. This is by tacking on less desirable watches/other stuff with more desirable watches. It does not make sense to the AD for him/her to sell you three desirable watches as a bundle, when he could sell each (bundled with other watches) to three different customers.

It will not make sense to an AD.

It’s nice to get to know watches one at time, at least to my way of thinking.
