Multiple waiting lists

[Rolexadmirer51]

Two years ago, while traveling for work, I went into the local Rolex dealer
They asked me what I was looking for I told them (sky dweller ) They asked me if I was local and I told them yes.
Of course I want to be loyal to my local A.D. but I already have several watches on my list there. I figured by putting another watch at the top of a list at another dealer. I might get it sooner
Two years later, the only correspondence I get when I ask them is “we have no idea when your watch will come in” So my question is this, does Rolex know when you’re on list at two different dealers?

Rolex for sure does not. If the AD’s in question are under shared ownership, then their systems might be linked

From what I understand, the AD's do not have systems that are shared. Unless they are under the same ownership and are "related" as 2001jesper pointed out. Even then, they may not have a shared system.

I was always recommended to ask and request from any and all AD's. As many as you can possibly visit, since that will only increase your chances. There is no Rolex "law" that condemns you from asking at too many locations. It's nice to stay loyal to your local AD, but if they're not coming through for you and keep giving you the run around, you gotta try other avenues imo. The one to be loyal to is the one that actually gets you a watch!

Watches of Switzerland ADs in the UK are linked for sure. They tell you you cannot use another AD (interest list wise) across all their stores. I registered my interest at a Goldsmiths and a WoS branch checked my history, and list when in there.

The 2 ADs in my town are owned by the same company. A SA at one used to be nice and welcoming. After looking on the pc one day and seeing I've purchased at the other AD location, that SA ignores me now.

Come to think of it, I don't get a call for anything from either one now. What I have bought I happened to be there at the right time.
