However that policy would alienate the 400+ ADs that would feel left out of the 40th Anniversary of the Nautilus.
With a 1300 production number, each AD should receive at least a couple of pieces, assuming they have the customer base to support the watch. I can imagine some ADs are located in economically depressed areas where it is not always easy to move a watch listed at close to $100K USD, whether it is a special Anniversary piece or not.
