Is this a good deal
I was offered a 2022 no date submariner purchased from mayors of Tampa, papers/card but no box for 10.5K out the door from a local jeweler.
He told me that they sent it away to be polished by someone that worked for Tudor. I'm not familiar with what to look for regarding if it were over polished. I also do not know how much value will be lost for being polished. I've been on a waitlist for 3 years for the Daytona with the white dial and the blnr on jubilee. I know those models are difficult to come by, especially for not having any purchase history. I decided today to get on the waitlist for the submariner as well, in hopes it's a bit more obtainable. It seems that inventory is increasing, today at mayors of Tampa there was an entire wall full of watches that were available, when usually there are none. My current lineup is a YG DD40 and TT serti sub. I'd like to add a steel model within a reasonable time frame then continue my long wait for the Daytona and blnr. My questions are: 1. Is this watch a good deal for being used and polished? 2. Should I wait for a new sub from the ad since inventory is increasing? 3. What's a typical wait time? 4. Will purchasing a steel sub from the ad hurt or help my chances for the Daytona and blnr? Thanks for any advice IMG_7334.jpeg IMG_7335.jpeg IMG_7330.jpeg IMG_7333.jpeg |

I'm surprised they even would put your name down for the Daytona because you are not getting it.
The GMT with no purchase history or special circumstances also you have no chance of buying from an AD. Sent from my SM-S918U1 using Tapatalk |

Put your name down for a Sub at a few ADs and wait it out. The wait shouldn’t be too long, and you’ve already got two Rolexes to enjoy in the meantime
