Go grey or wait forever and never get the wanted watches.
Seems to be the way of today's world, for the most part. Nothing is for certain with AD's and Rolex --ahem-- 'deliveries.'

Exactly right. I had that exact conversation with the manager of my AD when i was last in. I’ve known them 6-8 years and we talk watches whenever i am around. He said the amount of people on a daily basis coming in and giving a list of hot SS watches they are interested in incredible. I think it’s the worst idea.
If the AD knows you, and you shop there quite a bit, nothing wrong with giving them the next 2-3 watches on your list. If they don’t know you, you’re not getting a single watch when asking for the all of the hottest models, regardless if you plan on keeping them or not.
I have two watches on my list. Getting a sub around November for my birthday, and a black Daytona. My suggestion would be keep it simple and reasonable. If they don’t know you and you haven’t spent any money, low chance of getting a skydweller.
