You could go south...Saw one in the show case in Palm Desert a couple weeks back...

Or there is always a Gentleman in Orlando who will get you one next day!

Always nice to open the FedEx with the correct time already set on your new watch!

They are probably in the back of some ADs but I have never seen them on display in the past 12 years or so.

I had a wonderful experience with my daytona at Fourtané in Carmel by the sea. Not sure of their stock, but they treated me really well even as a first time buyer. Highly recommended.

Yep. David shipped all the way to me here in Japan and he had the correct Japan time set on the watch. Amazing.

Did you try Rolex Torneau boutique in SF ? They put you on the waiting list but you should get it in 3 months max.

If you're totally dead set on not buying from a trusted seller here and going to Vegas then try the MGM casinos over the Wynn. The Wynn is great for window shopping but the MGM casinos,( Bellagio, Mirage, MGM, and such ) have a higher volume as a whole because Rolex groups them all together.

I've been keeping an eye on south coast retailers here in the Uk - I saw a SS black in a window earlier this year - first one I've seen in 8 years of looking...!

You're most likely not going to be able to get one here in the bay area unless your a VIP. They play that game here in NorCal. I got one at Davidson Licht, but that was because I was VIP. Some the ADs here have them but wont sell unless you are a repeat customer.

You are better off getting it from a trusted seller.

Good call. Congrats in advance. If you like it half as much as I do, you will be thrilled!
