I have been looking for a submariner for quite some time. Do to the scarcity, I was beginning to doubt I would be able to get one from an AD. This past fall I went to my local AD and told them what I was looking for and he put me on the waiting list. When this occurred, everyone i spoke to said the chances of me getting one would be slim(at least for the time being) and maybe I should check the grey market.

Today during work I saw an email from the jeweler letting me know they just got a 2022 Rolex Submariner black face- green bezel or commonly referred to as the Starbucks version and would I be interested?

It wasn’t the sub that I was originally wanting, but i know luck was smiling down on me since I have never purchased anything from this dealer and besides one email, I only spoke with him one time.

None of my friends really understand the elation I’m feeling, so I figured I would share with the forum.

Fantastic! Like hitting the lottery!

Cutigergrad04 · 11 February 2022, 02:29 PM

I appreciate that. It says that the file dimensions are to large. I will see if I can figure out how to make the file smaller. It’s gonna take a little time to get used to the 41mm and color. I kind of figured I would have to get a used sub on the grey market. So most of what I looked at was the 40mm. I actually had never even tried a new one on until I bought it today.

Perfect example of why artificial scarcity marketing works. The customer feels MORE special and satisfied thinking he/she purchased something hard to get. This is why Rolex fully supports a great retail network.

Wow, lady luck was smiling on you!

dnpina · 12 February 2022, 01:14 AM

What about your Yachmaster?

Great Submariner. I like my Green bezel sub date
