Got the call!! Very unexpected!
I got a text from my lovely SA yesterday to have me come in the store today. So when I arrived at the store, she had me wait in a room and came back with steel Daytona!!
I was in shock because I didn’t expect to get it! I put on the list long time ago, Even she said it’s gonna a very long wait. So I think the relationship is the most important in order to get the watch you want. Also be patient! Yes, I took the bus home. I live close by AD. No, I don’t have a lot of purchase history. I don’t really remember how many years I had waited. Probably over 5 years. However, I work with this SA for over 8 years. Even though I don’t have a lot of purchase history, but I always refer her to a lot of friends! It’s a very beautiful watch in person! |

Good on you, great to see a Rolex on a bus and not another photo of someone trying to show off their wealth with the high end car steering wheel in the background.

Amazing! Good to see people with not a lot of history getting such watches. Softening of the market is having a positive impact I think.

Wow, congratulations OP. Small purchase history, hu? Maybe availability is improving at some ADs, even on sought after pieces.
