116610LV waiting-list time Europe

Hi there,
I’m on a waiting since end November at Bucherer (major Rolex AD) in Zürich Switzerland.

I’m curious how many of us located in Europe are on a waiting list and a long were they quoted as drivers time.

So thanks in advance for giving your input.

Cheers

Alex

I was on the wait list for a week before getting the call for it in mid Nov. I unfortunately had to pass it up as I was out of the country.

It's all going to depend on several factors.
Either the number of stores of that particular AD and it's impact on Rolex sales.
The number of special watches they receive or can ask.
Their waiting list.
And finally Your standing position with that particular AD.

You just need to imagine entering a out of the beaten path AD store and ask for a special piece, that they've just received, or they saving it for a client that might be wanting it and already has an history with them and is a returning customer.

Do the math...

I've been to the AD just after christmas. Maybe on 28th of december.
They called me around 20th january.

I bought nothing from this AD before. I passed because i'm keeping my money for the DaytonaC.
