This would depend on the individual store, if the store is an independent dealing direct with Rolex (Your Country) then yes it may have more of a heads up of what is coming in.
But if the store is part of a chain then it is the HO that deals with Rolex and the HO that decides what is going where, so internally the store would be advised that on this weeks shipment it will have the following;........
How soon the store gets that advice depends on how quickly the HO deal with the communication from Rolex, sorts the delivery and gets the info out to the stores.
I would say that in most circumstances 48/72 hours is the max notice with 24/48 hours about average irrespective of whether the store is independent or multiple.
One point I would query is your comment about invoices being paid before shipment, I would have assumed that normal business practices would apply and invoices would be paid after goods have been received, 21 days for example.
