Been on waitlist for over a year for a 15450ST...

[tifamo]

The process is just so frustrating now getting an AP RO.. I’m just looking for the 37mm stainless steel with white dial, not even blue dial or 15500, it’s just IMPOSSIBLE. I’ve been on the waitlist for over a year, but whenever I checked in with a store they indicated existing customers get first dips and asked if I wanted a diamond RO, again and again..

The grey market somehow can just get 15450ST every week or two and selling it at $10k above MSRP. I’m now losing faith in my wait. Should I just buy from the diamond district here in Manhattan or Chrono24? Or should I keep waiting?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Just sad that a true watch lover can’t land hands on one but somehow the ADs and just showering the grey market with loads..
