I bought my Daytona in 2003 at an AD. The Rolex forums of the day were talking about how to get on "The List"- spend a ton @ the AD, paying a premium @ a Grey Dealer, etc. Love Daytonas, just don't use it (chrono function) too much. Then again, the helium valve in my sea dweller doesn't get much use, nor does my Porsche see anywhere it's limits.
