Well I'd say if the model you want has no chance of a refurb, then now. A pretty good contender for a revamp is the Sub. Which I hope happens. This would help relieve some of the GMT & Daytona pressure I think. The Exp II will be revamped in 2021 (50th anniversary), should be some new steel variants of previous released Datejust etc..... but who knows???

If you're into high demand SS sport, you'll have to wait regardless, for most mortal non-VIP customer here it could mean never.
