Any recent 116710LN GMT from AD?

Just curious when was the last time anyone got the last batch of 116710LN GMT Black from an AD? There were some threads of people getting lucky a month ago but haven't seen any recently.

I'm asking because I put down the full deposit (even including tax!) at an AD couple days before Baselworld 2019 for one (terrible luck, spent a month deciding what I wanted and couple days later it gets cancelled). I was told that the company will get 1 or 2 and I'm the only one waiting at this store...(they have 3 stores). So it's been over a month now and I haven't heard anything so starting to wonder if my money is just sitting there as free loan and if all of the last stock have been depleted...

I was told the same for a BLNR. Did full down payment. A month after Basel, was told that no more watches, i can get my refund back or b on a waiting list for the new BLNR.

Hi I’m sorry to hear mate! I think I read one or two lucky members got theirs from the last of the stock (already at the AD) but I can’t imagine anymore would be sent through now? Obviously no one really knows but sounds like it might be smart to get onto another list of a watch you want that is more likely to come eventually.

Same here, AD said they haven't received any in months even prior to Basel. And worst part, I was thinking/looking to get one prior and the same thing happened, Boom!!!! Discontinued.

Who thought they would discontinue the LN? No one.

My AD confidently told me in February that the watch was already discontinued, makes me think that shipments had stopped a while before it was officially discontinued.

I was lucky enough to pick one up from an AD last Wednesday morning. They had just received it the evening prior.

Mark Weber is still wearing his on the Rolex website so I’m hoping it will return soon - with the upgraded movement and jubilee bracelet

Wasn’t it mentioned somewhere that Rolex wants to keep GMT as bi-color / jubilee to differentiate itself from subs and SDs?

Nice.

My AD had no professional models at all, and they said it would take a couple of years to get one. Of course, that was pre-purchase. After I walked out with a DJ, they said they could work with me on getting more exclusive models since I'm "in their system."

The cool thing about this AD is they don’t have wait lists and bundling. It’s first come first serve.

Congratulations, you lucky ducks I have been on the "list" for a BLNR since October but it looks like the Oyster will be a no-show

I was told when the GMT LN was discontinued that certain ADs would still get a small number of them even after discontinuation.

Asked my AD today when I picked up my Meteorite GMT if there was any news and sadly not there for me to pick up but they were very certain that they’ll be receiving them so there is still hope.

I’ve been on an AD waitlist for the BLNR the past 6~ months. AD called me that one LN came in last week and I had first dibs. Decided to jump on it!

There are no Rolex dealers on the island here, so I deal with the dealer from my last home town on the mainland. That does not allow me to browse the AD's but I did just receive this a couple of weeks ago from that mainland dealer.

Way too small for your wrist no?
