How long between incomings?

As title says, I know it depends, but about how long do y'all think to jump from

ROO Taupe (1st purchase) to RO 41mm?

Just seeing if I still have a chance or move on to grey.

AP in USA

I got my first 15450 early last year. And this year got an offer for 15510 this April.

I believe you still got a chance for the RO.
I’m in the States too.

Feb 22 to Sept 22 for a ROO Diver to a ROC. I think this is most typical, there were other mitigating circumstances that affected my other two pieces. I think 4-8 months is pretty standard unless we are talking about those very special pieces and/or someone whom the brand holds in high regard.

3 pieces in about 14 months, including 50th ROC and 15510st.
I started with RG Code which I specifically asked for.

I was offered a ro less than two weeks after getting my roo. Another offshore a month later and have turned down a few lately as I’m waiting for some more specific pieces now.
What happened in two months I thought would take at least two years. This was all this year fyi

I got the call for the RO 41mm after 10 months, but have wanted the taupe for 2 years and will probably never get the call.

I got my code first, then my 15510 a year after. Although the code gets more of my wrist time, mesmerising watch with the case and how it’s constructed.

Boils down to relationship and how many pieces you have. The bigger the collection and you’ll be among the first to get any new release if you ask for it.

If you’re building up the gap will be larger. Asking for pieces that expand collection diversity will usually be quicker too

My AP schedule is one a year which is perfect for me. It gives me a lot of time to research and diversify the collection.
