CHNR in stock at Ben Bridge - Tucson AZ

Just a heads up. I travel there often for business and got a call but can’t get there to make it happen.

Wow! At Ben Bridge? That’s promising! It goes against my theory that the corporate office dictates what get allocated to each store.
Someone’s going to be happy!

I’ve been given the ‘secret’ as to how it works at Ben bridge, at least locally here. The manager advises all 4 reps about the hard to get watches they have and each rep makes a claim for one of them if they have a buyer. If there is a tie, the better customer gets it or the manager makes the tie break based on which sales rep got more hard to get pieces. Really a dumb system if I’ve ever heard one.

The sales lady at an AD that I went to this week says that the manager puts them on a waiting list for the hot watches

Then when it’s the sales lady’s turn, she looks through her list of potential buyers

So technically, there are at least two lists

This is how Mayors does it.

I hope a local enthusiast can get the CHNR before the deluge of flippers hit the store.

Well is it a 126715 or 126711? My guess goes with the full rose, as that's easier to stumble across than the two tone.

I was at Ben Bridges last year, They had black GMT, Subs, both No Date and Date, Explore I and II black and white, and many other SS Rolex Models. After 2 month, they lost their Rolex License to their competitor in the shopping mall...

That sounds like an unicorn.

Any light shed why they lost their license?

Two tone. That’s why I posted it.
