There is no clear answer to this question. It's very much down to the integrity of your AD. The local demand for your chosen watch and how often the dealer gets the model in his consignment from Rolex.

For the majority of us mere mortals, the alignment of all these variables is nigh-on impossible and invariably we try to circumvent the almost unimaginable timeframe that presents itself.

Consequently, both of your suggestions are considered viable options dependant upon the desirability of the watch you really want.

I know my local AD still sells Subs to first time local customers.
He's got a couple for friends of mine but he always ensures they are local people .
He told me that he always tries is best for people from the area then there's a good chance they will come back for future business

I wish my local ADs would do the same too.
