Lot of new incomings.

Everyone seems to be coming around. Well I’m not Doug. I saw two big fat naked bikers in the woods off of 17 having sex. How am I suppose to chip with that going on Doug.

Sorry just really frustrated. Been waiting for my BLRO for 2 years.

The mark up is huge on them via grey, but personally I wouldn’t wait 2 years for any watch I really wanted, I would just pony up. But I’m terrible with money and have no patience

I know. Have almost pulled the trigger on Jomashop multiple times. I just hate the grey market and everything they stand for. Also, I am afraid I will get the pink and purple one for double msrp.

Me too dude. Texted my AD at 10 am Basel day 2018. No Pepsi in sight. They’ve sold me a black Daytona, hulk and blnr. Out of the blue offered me a chnr root beer I turned down a year ago or so. No Pepsi. You aren’t the only one.

I think you’ll find a lot of those color anomalies have to do with lightibg and white balance. Get it from David, he has pics of each one on his site, his service is also better than almost any dealer

I also tossed my hat in the ring with a new ad today to see if I can score one, at retail I think it’s a great watch, not at market price for me, if I’m spending that much there are other watches I would want personally

Exact same. Thought it was going to be 3-4 months.

So you’ve been given 3 of the 4 most desirable SS pieces, been offered the hottest ever TT, but no Pepsi in sight.

How many people here wish they were as unlucky as you!?!?

Was just trying to demonstrate that it seems impossible to get. I got my hulk in 2016 and Daytona in 2017 before all this madness began.

Haha. I get your sentiment but he wasn’t complaining. Just stating a fact. Probably to show how long the wait can be.
