Three calls in two weeks

What's going on, got 3 calls in the last 2 weeks from different ADs "your ordered watch is here"

Something has changed? Sub green (Hulk), SeaDweller two times in two weeks.

Well would you please mind sharing with us what you bought along with some pics ? otherwise you sound like just wanting to give the impression of a supplied market where there is none. Also it sounds like you have your name on tons of lists.

ALF61, be sure, only some dealers, three we have here, so not tons, don’t worry.

I dont have to post pics, believe it or not, simple.

And I dont have to impress someone ;-)

At an AD in the uk... very short on steel sports all year but they’ve seen a definite increase in alllcation during the last quarter

Maybe more allocation is making it to Europe now

Ps clearly not conclusive :)

Having this much luck comes sometimes once in a long while, make you pick fast or go for all at once

Why leave us hanging on what you bought? Its a forum after all and we all like to see whats landed with the members. Its not about impressing anyone ... In my opinion its simply sharing or why bother posting in the first place?

We don´t post pics here to impress only to share our joy and enthusiasm. Of course you don´t have to, but we try to be as realistic here on market conditions if you´d like to give more credibility to your post. Only my opinion.

Well you’re missing the spirit of “pics or it didn’t happen”

I agree, you don’t have to impress anyone, but you also didn’t have to post “Three calls” either. Sort of counterproductive to not trying to impress, don’t you think?

My AD just reported to me they have recently received several hard to obtain SS Professional models. Even a SkyDweller, along with Hulk, Batman, Pepsi, Submariner.
All were spoken for quickly.

Not looking to impress what else are you doing why bother posting.

I’d guess a broad slowdown in spending due to fears about the global economy. But maybe I’m just projecting...I’m on a few lists as well but plan to pass on any opportunities until the stock markets stabilize.

Sorry dont understand, why you need pics, think we all know how a SeaDweller and a green Sub looks, or?

Interesting on the SD is that it’s still MKI, both of them. The AD also showed me another one and this one is MKII with the little crown. So Rolex is delivering both at the moment.

I am still waiting on my Hulk in Vienna! Hope it arrives as fast as yours! How long did you wait if you don't mind me asking?

Best, Luka

Its pics of the one you bought .... which you have still not mentioned.

Yeah ... we all know what they look like ... but its the whole point of the incoming or 3 calls threads at the end of the day or it smacks of simply blowing smoke up our respective back sides.
