When it's on your wrist you'll be happy you were patient!

I agree. I work in the auto transport business and that experience has given me a whole new appreciation for being patient, we have customers who want their high end car transported asap, they can't live without it, at some point we need to take a step back and just be patient, I understand it is exciting to get something new.

And when it arrives, there's no better Christmas present...

Heck, the anticipation is half the fun...

vitalsignsrn · 10 December 2013, 02:24 AM

I can understand your frustration. You finally made a decision and you want it NOW. LOL When I chose my watch, they said initially they didn't have the one I wanted and had to order it in. I was a bit disappointed after weeks of agony trying to figure out which one I wanted, for it not to be available. So I sat patiently waiting to fill out paperwork when the saleslady sat down with a box and a very happy grin. They had one in their safe. :-D

Did the shop say when it might be in? Is there a way you can cancel that order if someone on TRF can find you one quickly? I don't know if this is an option or not for you.

I placed my deposit (paid in full actually) around Nov 20th. I was notified it should be here this weekend! Point is they are moving. Another AD was on a list for also got one in.

Be patient, it'll come!

mjclark32 · 10 December 2013, 03:30 AM

Did they give you an ETA?

mikhaelj · 10 December 2013, 03:34 AM

My DJII was sold out in my area they have to store transfer the exact dial/bezel I wanted from another store that’s 5 hours away. It took them a week to do so, I know it drove me crazy. Trust me when its on you wrist, all the pain will go away.

sea-dweller · 10 December 2013, 03:35 AM

Yep, part of the fun is in the waiting...

powderjay · 10 December 2013, 03:49 AM

Ya they said 3 to four weeks... but it's killing me seeing all the watches in the forsale section and all the blnr threads.

joe100 · 10 December 2013, 04:27 AM

You'll love it when it goes in for service. 8 weeks later... And they're still working on it

perpetualman88 · 10 December 2013, 04:42 AM

Try to buy it elsewhere. Rolex will not be shipping out anymore watches to its ADs until the beginning of January. If you want your watch before Xmas I would advise talking to some dealers here on the Forum

Racerdj · 10 December 2013, 04:58 AM

It WILL be worth the wait!

Worth the wait! Big congrats!

vitalsignsrn · 10 December 2013, 01:13 PM

It doesn't sound like much longer. You've been through the longest phase I think. :-) I would however call the store frequently..maybe a Monday and a Thursday to ask politely if in. Hey, you are the customer. ;-) Just be pleasant and jovial..you won't be called names..LOO
