UK availability on YM40 and OP36?

[btwistround]

What's the state of availability in the UK on a YM40 Rolesium and OP36 green dial?

Small purchase history (a few Tudors and a jewellery) at one of 2 AD's in my city.

Been on the 'list' for the OP since it got released (yes, yes, yes, I know) but nothing. The YM for about 2 years.

Have my 40th coming up and would be cool to add either one to my collection.

I reached out to my AD about 2 months ago and the SA I normally speak to had left. So got booked in with another SA and they offered my two tone YM and GMT Master 2 CHNR. Nearly got the CHNR but stopped last minute as it wasn't what I actually want.

Yes, I get it. It's much cooler and prestigious, higher value, etc. But wasn't for me.

Looking back, either availability is slightly easier or they felt sorry for me and offered the bigger hitters.

Going grey is a possibility. But prefer AD route.

The other AD is Goldsmiths. Got no purchase history and kept getting offered bundles or brands I'm not interested in.
