Are Tudor "special orders" the same as Rolex?

[Poodlopogus]

Was looking for a particular Tudor reference (BB54), called around locally, and nobody seemed to have one in stock. One dealer said they could order, with a deposit. However, my question is: What does that mean in terms of Tudor?

I know that with Rolex it means "we'll put in a request for something we've already been allocated and hope for the best" but perhaps with Tudor it means that it's actually possible to put in a genuine order, to be filled in relatively short time?
