It's a double-edged sword, because once the relationship turns sour, kiss bye-bye to future allocations forever. Milking a relationship that just isn't working out sounds pretty terrible.

I always thought it was the watch that got you laid.

Now I fear it might be the other way around.

Hmm... not a date, though my AD and his boss joined a fun party with 20 of my friends at the go-kart track. Fun times

I think they meant at the in house discount. Two tone Daytona is probably the best the SA can get at a discount for themselves.

I've been quite successful when it comes to making money and collecting Rolex , the rest of my life has been a total disaster especially when it comes to woman and relationships.
I wouldn't want to mess up a good thing

Ha Ha , whilst I dislike using cliches that is 'thinking outside the box' , made me laugh so much , nice one !

With all due respect to her husband, my SA in Naples makes me forget what time of day it is! Just saying.

Should you marry more than one SA just to increase your chances?

If both are single and hit it off fine. Don't expect or imply any watch preferences. Probably ruin the relationship fast.

My AD actually said his wife is on the bottom of the list when it comes to priority for watches, so I dunno if dating an AD would help your cause.

SA's are often not allowed to buy the pieces. The AD principals are usually deciding who's getting what. That's how it is for all of my local AD's (lucky enough to know all the owners, directly or indirectly). My buddy was an SA at an AD and the owner/directors told him to piss off about getting a batman for 5 years. I connected him with their competitor and they got him one in two weeks.

Solution: get with the principal (this probably means you'll have to go gay). Go gay before gray?
