What if your particular AD only sells Rolex. Which Rolex would you then have to buy, could you even buy, to establish a purchase history with that Rolex only AD?
I just don't understand why Rolex thinks this will work?
Are they saying that a whole generation of Rolex buyers have to essentially grow old and die or go broke before they will open the AD to truly new customers?
I don't know what's worse. ALS outwardly saying that models like the Odysseus is off limits unless you buy a Saxonia or other entry level watch(es), or a tacit, super secret, double secret probation rule that seems to funnel watches to a privilege few, unless you buy an unclear number of watches or jewelry of a certain kind to even get on a list to possibly buy a watch....perhaps down the road when your "purchase history" is deemed sufficient.
This is so insane.

Nobody need be forced to buy anything. Plenty of people want to buy other stuff.
So long as demand exceeds supply there will be a hierarchy of clients, and there will be qualifying criteria.
There's always the option of not buying a watch, you don't need one
