I'm still waiting for the call to this day and whenever I pop in and ask they claim they're still waiting for one. It's laughable if it wasn't so tragic.

Soon, you will be the one deciding which AD you will select for purchase.

The production will resume, but the general demand won't be there as we know it ..

I know a lot of ppl having the cold feet for Subs and other professional pieces when they receive the call in this climate.

Wear it in good health!

This post perfectly sums up the sorry state of affairs Rolex have got themselves into by letting their AD distribution network treat customers off the street like this. It really muddies the water about the brand from a customer perspective.
You should write a letter to Rolex Geneva quoting exactly what you have written above.
You’re right, it is laughable and makes a mockery of the whole brand, especially when you see so many new ones for sale with Greys.
Rolex really need to either up the MSRP to the same level as greys or use this lock down as an opportunity to put an end to this circus once and for all.

To the OP, congrats, beautiful watch. It looks great.

That's a beautiful piece. Congratulations

Thanks! I believe I have MK 3 and what makes this interesting is the change of the bezel color with the ambient light. See another picture I took indoor (same watch).
