Shortest wait time for SS Sports models (post craze)

[Jay2101]

How long or short were your wait times with the AD?
I've been fortunate in my pickups.

214270 straight from the display case in August 2018.

116610 LN in June 2020 with a 3 day wait.

I'm saving that luck for when I go in to ask for a Pepsi 😂

Took mine about a month. Over the moon with customer service I received.

People should mention if any other purchases were made during the wait.

Wow 🙂. Finally met someone who waited shorter than me for a sub.

3 days for BLNR in Sept 2017, new to AD
3 weeks for Sub (ND) in Aug 2021, same AD as Hulk
3-4 weeks for black SS SkyD in Dec 2018, same AD as Hulk
7-8 weeks for Hulk in Jan 2018, new to AD

Two OPs same day in and out, last Christmas 2021.
Turquoise 36 for her. Yellow 41 for me.

AD in Vegas. Nothing was on display, no customers either. The sales crew was friendly and we were in the store about two hours, just talking about life and telling stories.

About an hour or so into the conversation, my girl mentioned her desire to get the Tiffany OP and I said I was hoping to one day get the Yellow OP, because yellow is my favorite color. We were having champagne with the crew and the store manager. For no reason at all, the manager said he liked us, but he has some work to do and left. He came back maybe 5 or 10 minutes later with two new OPs. The rest is history and it was a Merry Christmas for us both.

It's bullshit when the ADs say there's no stock. They indeed have stock in the back. If they didn't, they wouldn't have armed guards up front. It's a matter of building a relationship. Maybe they were in the Christmas spirit, too.

I got a Sub date in December last year from my local AD after a walk in.
I've come home every Christmas from working overseas for around the last ten years and had something waiting for me , this year they hadnt managed to get anything that I had on my wish list in time for me.
I jokingly told them that it's going to look a bit bare under the tree this year then they came back with a steel Sub that another customer had failed to collect

[Ringhio]

124060 5 days.
I got lucky ;)

[eijiboy]

Mine was more of a surprised. Asked my SA if i can come to ad to resize my watch which i bought from grey and sa felt about paying premium. but Sizing never happened and offered me a starbucks sub which i didnt even asked.

[storm66]

I tried on a several exhibition models and requested a Starbucks Sub from a new AD. A couple weeks later I made a $1200 ring purchase for the wife. Two days after the ring purchase, I got the call for my 126610LV. (March 2022) App. 3 weeks from first inquiry to LV on my wrist.

[Twin1]

About a week for my sub back in 2019!

So the AD just contacted you and you went in and got it?

[Solo118]

3 weeks for a Root Beer.... a few years ago though lol

[Xtralarg]

2 weeks wait for a Pepsi, got it 4 weeks ago.

I have bought 4 Daytona's, blue Sky-D, Sub and a Rootbeer from the same AD in the last few years.

Not a sports model, but six weeks for my DJ41 in the exact configuration I requested. This was last November.

[Images and Words]

Just got 126610. 3 months wait, zero prior relationship, visited the SA every 2 weeks. . Same AD has offered me any DJ41 after 6 weeks with a deposit and delivery in 3-6 months.

[calatravato]

I know you asked about steel models, but it took 3 business days to get a Bluesy, with my only previous purchase from that AD being a Grand Seiko.

[gmt1]

114060 same day in 2019, complete luck of the draw (no prior history at said AD). Someone to who it was allocated didn't show up, so it was mine. All other allocations have taken me at least 4 weeks

I happened to be there and he offered me one.

[Daytonaman799]

I got an SD 43 same day and my wife got a Pepsi in 3 days for me for my icy day.this was in 2020 and 2021. In 2018 I got a white ceramic Daytona after about 2-3 months.
