Your story is very similar to how I started off the relationship with my AD by getting the hulk within a month of asking and with no purchase history. I will say that you should expect to make other purchases (not referring to in demand Rolex watches) in the future as it’s a two way street. You got a very difficult to get watch so now you have to help the AD out by making other purchases in order to further the relationship. Clearly it sounds like the AD takes a fancy to you on a personal level but they can’t just keep giving you the most in demand pieces for nothing in return.

Have to keep this one a secret for now. Lol. They said you have to pick up in person. I think a lot of people are not flying right now so that has to help. Plus they are reversing openings in a lot of state’s so people probably are passing on buying luxury items right now.

I would be willing to buy jewelry or something for the wife but I’m not going to buy watches I don’t want because lm not in the Habit of selling them. But I get what your saying. I have a lot of watches now so I’m pretty set. The wife wants to update her watch to a president so they will definitely have my future business.

Times could be also starting to change in the buyers favors. I guess time will tell.

This is how it was always supposed to be. Before all the hype. But every journey begins with the first step.

Nice work, that is how it's done. Sweet pick up, that green sunburst dial is something else.
