Jokes aside, nice pick-up mate!

You’re not wrong. LOL. Although, we have been married for 6 years and I never bought her an engagement/wedding ring because she never found anything she liked. I think $3k is getting off light after 6 years.

Wow, you must be very easy to please if all your wife had to do to earn your love was pick up a watch so you wouldn't have to wait until after work!


Just kidding; congrats on that and enjoy!

Most ADs still have long lists so your purchase and probably likeability helped! I still saw on fb that a guy in the northeast US has been eyeing a sub or gmt and can’t get one at any AD around.

She was on thin ice, but I’ll probably keep her around now.

Congratulations, as others have said the spend helped and you got a great piece!

[Ferrari-F430]

Nice pickup!! I really want to add a Starbucks to my collection eventually.. just a beautiful piece!

Honestly, if I was able to get a stainless sports model that fast from my AD, I think I would stop and pick up lotto tickets on the ride home to see if the luck follows me...

[Joearch]

Great watch. While there is a bit more supply, it is still an excellent score.

[Carguy87]

Congrats OP that’s an awesome pickup!

That’s all combined perfectly in your favour!

Between my brother and I we have picked up 3 Starbucks in 2 weeks across two ADs. One of them my brother had zero spend history and got it in 2 days.

I’ve always fully believed the most import factor is if the SA likes you individually as a person. After all, it’s them that makes the allocation decision whilst sitting down with their colleagues. They then have to take the heat professionally if other colleagues don’t agree with their decision etc.

Today, other market factors are making an impact for sure, but there is no doubt the LV is being produced in far higher numbers as it’s seen in every AD window, with multiple examples out the back also.

We saw this all through out the fall of prices in the last 2 years. When it’s something actually rare, then it still goes for way above.

16599 Daytona - first of its kind gemset. Will break records. Likely going to take rainbow Daytona pricing up with it.

1675 GMT - first GMT on the moon. Likely to take 1675 pricing up.

You really think 1675 prices overall will go up as a result?

That's perfect, and all it took was a 3k jewelry purchase.....came down a lot from the 20-30k jewelry purchase. Times are tough for the AD.

[rmlovett1]

Nice! Congrats!

[garyk]

I managed to get mine quickly but not that quickly!! Awesome and congrats!

[D_Rolex]

Huge congrats. You’re going to love this watch.

What’s next on your radar? Sounds like you have a great AD/SA…

I originally asked for an LV sub, black/green GMT II, or a fluted Wimbledon (in that order). But I was after something green. I was thinking about keeping the Wimbledon on the list and changing the GMT to a BLNR or Pepsi.

Congrats on your Starbuck Sub. Wow, only a 3K purchase to get to the top of the list, maybe times are changing. There's hope that my AD will actually start being nice again! :-)

Wear it in good health. Cheers!

[ltmgeller]

Congrats!!!

[PandaLover]

I mean, I was going to leave that store with that ring regardless on if they sold Rolexes, so it was a win win. Lol
