i agree. we're now almost a year into the "it's happening" narrative and for the most part watches that were difficult to get at ADs are still as difficult to get and the ones that were impossible remain impossible. whether or not that's due to such a long list of demand from previous years remains to be seen, but it's just amusing that people continue to ignore the AD picture and only focus on grey prices. granted they have definitely crashed, but the overall picture remains the same, if you want a watch you're better off going grey
