Rolex Sea-Dweller 126600 In UK

What’s the wait time in the Uk on this watch?

I’ve been after a sub date for 4 years now as given up on my current Ad

Depends on your status with the AD, where you’re located, AD demographic….best thing is to go and speak to your AD as answers on here really won’t give you an accurate idea of ‘your’ wait time

4 years?!
Sounds like your AD is completely mugging you off.
I have owned a 126610LN and now own an SD43 and personally prefer the SD43. I got my Sea Dweller within a couple of months of requesting it last year.
Availability should be much better than the Sub

This is the frustrating thing with AD currently in the Uk
If you’re a first time buyer hard to say I know people like you’re self waiting 2 - 4 years

on the other side if you’ve purchased a Rolex before from a AD times can be greatly reduced

we put our name down in Nov 21 for a 126600 50th anniversary Seadweller when collecting an Explorer 2
picked this up May 22 after approximately 6 months wait and was advised pre-orders were now closed on this model
Luckily I got my name down for a JC DS so we will see how long this is before I get the call

I am not in the UK but if you have a good standing with the AD any waiting time longer than 1 year seems odd.

Have you previously purchased at this AD ?

You’ve waited 4 years for a Sub, I guess the answer to the above is no.

If it is the case, I would find a new AD as they don’t want to sell to you.

I’ve purchase history but the Ad won’t even say how long before I’m top of the list

Trying to get a new ad but none will take any new names on SS models
