My AD has a YM 126655 in the display won't sell
I went to a Rolex AD in Virginia, and they have an "exhibition" Yachtmaster 126655 Everrose. I wanted to buy it and was told they will put me on the list? But it's been sitting. there for awhile.
I get my other rolexes serviced there as well. I didn't haggle price or anything just wanted to buy? Any thoughts? |

They are going to pretend there is a ton of demand for that watch. Be patient.

My TT Sea Dweller was an EO piece in the cabinet when I asked to try it on, happy that it was the watch for me I asked the SA if I could buy it, after checking with the boss the SA came back and said yes. Purely by chance I was back in the store a couple of days later and in the cabinet was a new TT Sea Dweller. I guess that either they had two - one on display and one in the safe or they knew that they had another coming in that they could put on display so were happy to sell me the one in the cabinet.

Rolex requires the AD's to keep a certain inventory as "exhibition" pieces. They must stay there for a certain time period at which time they can then sell them. If they get another of the same watch in they can then sell it but replace it with another "exhibition" of the same model.

My AD said they keep a watch as exhibition until they get another one of that watch in.
