Rolex Sports Collection

Since my AD failed to deliver for my birthday (late December) even though I was told I would get something by then, my wife surprised me with a set of Rolex style bezel bracelets to match my watches. Batman, Hulk, SD43, only one missing is a new Pepsi I was hoping to get, or a Daytona :-)

I keep hearing of the Rolex shutdown and last shipments to AD’s just before Christmas, however I Keep hearing AD’s delivering nice sports model watches this past week. I also keep hearing they will get more shipments the third week of January. Leads me to believe the AD’s are holding back still or just filling more BS our way. IMG_4537.JPG

Very nice bracelets. I haven’t seen them before. Is it custom made? Thanks.

Congrats!!!! Cool gift!!

I stay in pretty close contact with my two ADs - and they are larger - very old pedigree dealerships. I suspect several of the ‘deliveries’ that are being made recently are models that have simply been held back from the fall to end of last year to yield some early 1st qtr sales. My ADs haven’t even received their allocation numbers for the year yet (as of kid week last week), but should be coming soon.

Hang in there. hopefully 2020 will be a ‘better’ year. We’ll see....

Looks good matching your watches. If you want the solid 18k gold version for a great price let me know, it's from LA also.
