How fast did you get your Pepsi?

From the date you asked for it at the AD?

What is a good spend history if I don't mind asking?

A while... (said with a big smile) and wearing it right now. One of my faves since seeing a Pepsi when I was young.

It's not really time, they get this watch regularly.

It's how "hard" you gotta "battle" against other folks who deserve it more than you.

I’ve been waiting since July of last year with a decent spend history (jewelry for wife, Sub LV, Tudor Black Bay, Cartier). I went grey to get one a few months ago, but would still purchase from my AD if offered. I recently reached out to my AD for an update and she promised that she’s going to get me either a Pepsi or Batgirl, but they haven’t gotten either (or Sprite) since last year.

3 weeks and counting so far. Seriously though, those of you who waited a while and finally got one - were you buying other models during the wait? I’ve heard if you want to land a Pepsi you pretty much have no chance at any other desirable model during your wait

12 hours.

Was going in for a friend to buy his daydate. Told my sa to look in the safe and see if she had anything special for me.

She said…. What would you like? I said a Pepsi or a Batman. She replied, lol let’s see.

12 hours later after my friend was done with his purchase… I was told to sit down and was presented a Pepsi on jubilee.


Point being… there is no waitlist. They sell to who’s on their mind and who brings them business. So keep in touch with your ad at least once a month

12 hours?

How far away was that safe from the AD?

I am a good customer at my AD: Rolex, Tudors, new wedding ring for my wife and still took me three years.
At Christmastime all the salesmen were asked who their favorite customer was and what was on their wish list. Luckily my "watch chic" selected me and the BLRO! Thx Deb!

A little less than 4 months for my BLRO from the time I asked. This was back in the beginning of 2020 (pre-COVID) with only having purchased one other pre-owned watch from them.

3 months and counting. My AD said the spending history is adequate for it, but I go to a chain store AD with other ADs, so it is allocated at the corporate level.

The SA told me they haven't seen a Pepsi for 2-3 months, but expect it won't be too long.

The same AD with adequate spending, I got my John Player Special / Paul Newman Daytona on oysterflex in 4 months.

Seemed Pepsi is a but longer, but I am only waiting for it on jubilee.

1. Two tone Daytona first watch
2. Sea dweller deep sea
3. Two tone Rootbeer
4. Explorer 2 black dial
5. Sub date 41mm black
6. Pepsi

All bought within 1.5 years

I got it the first day it was released , I'd obviously had a big spend history before.
The longest I've waited for any of my orders was the Yellow OP 41 which took more than a year to arrive.
