Icon20 How long for new models ...
Once new models are introduced[ next week]how long will it take to see them available ?

Does Rolex do an order & wait or just start shipping into AD's. ?

It really depends on the model and given year. Some new releases in the past have hit ADs almost instantly, while others have taken a good part of the year to show up after initial announcement. Unfortunately, I don't think there is any way to know exactly when they make it...

I actually had mine on my wrist before the end of May (USA deliveries) and there were several that were delivered to US AD's and Boutiques several weeks earlier then that.

Cheers,

Joe

Afraid my memory is not as good as it was yes it was in May,reason so soon after Basel, mainly because it was not a totally new watch just a cosmetically changed old one.

Depending on the model sometimes as early as May and as late as September. Only Rolex knows.

Agreed if the buyer was quick, lucky or connected.
