No. Most of the old ADs I've done business with are no longer around that's all there is to it. (Obviously I'll post here but I won't go whine to the AD...) And when I say "was told to pound sand" it was actually ".... you must spend $15k more on jewelry." There are bigger buyers ahead of me.

This is luxury watch game, big boys game. You must pay to play.

I've tried: (probably 20 ADs over 4-5 years)

- CA ("Sorry, you're chopped liver. Go home.")
- All Scandinavian countries ("We only sell to locals")
- Germany/France/Italy ("You are not welcome here. Shop in your own country")

For my wife I can seemingly buy as many as I want..... ADs are happy to chum the waters (Those ADs where I have purchased BNIB pieces have all gone out of business hence no more relationship.)

Grey prices are down.
Just a suggestion, go and buy at currently lower prices on grey market. When your name eventually comes up, sell the grey piece back to the grey market.

Life is short, you clearly want a GMT, so go and get one on your wrist. Unlikely you’d lose long term. Time is money.

Obviously will be Going Grey when the time is right.

All I see you do is complain, complain and complain. It keeps going on. The world isn't fair. Suck it up.

Aren't you getting tired?

Yes, I'm tired!

I'm used to solving problems, but the challenge of "Obtain a GMT at MSRP in my local metro" seems like a Gordian Knot! (Grey dealer = the sword )

I’ve been waiting for a BLNR since August 2021

TT will infinitely easier to get. The BLNR will probably be a wait. I've been waiting 2yrs in Socal for BLNR. Finally gave up and went grey. F the games
