In June I visited another AD. I didn’t expect anything to come from the visit, but we had a nice conversation, he met my family, and, after inquiring about me professionally, he offered me two PP (5524R, 5230P). I took the 5524R on the spot and wore it out of the store. About a week later we spoke in more detail about my and my wife’s requests (it’s about 12). She tried on and loved the 5269R, but he didn’t have one available. A couple weeks ago he got it in and now we have two PP in the house in under 3 months. He expects to get me my first Aquanaut by EOY.
I was really down after the first AD gave me bleak outlook, but that all turned around. While mine is only one experience, I would speak to more ADs - it could work out well.
