Advice on first Rolex purchase from AD (Bay Area, CA)

Another upvote for David/Lict. I got my sub date in 7 weeks with zero history. They put me on BLNR waitlist 2 months ago and qouted me at least a year which I'm ok with.

Don't waste your time with any of the Devon chain (Roseville, Stockton, San Jose). They only cater to big time spenders (and people that regularly purchase jewelry and other stuff they sell).

That's great to hear. D&L have provided a great experience for me thus far. So cool that you got your sub date in just 7 weeks with no purchase history.

How often were you checking in / visiting D&L during those 7 weeks? Did you have a milestone?

Seems like a lot of effort from your side with not much outcome.

If you are not looking to build a large collection and really going after one watch, just buy grey. I am sure you can get unworn OP36 with green dial at 7.5k-8k mark on this forum from a trusted seller. That will be a small premium for the time and nerves wasted.

I agree

Just go grey...

Plenty of watches out there...
