Got my Christmas miracle last week from my AD my son’s first ever Rolex non date Sub, he said it was his best Christmas present ever, he’s so happy the smile on his face was priceless.

Mine came early a couple days ago. Def seems like they "release" some inventory to calm the hordes.

yes!!!! it's a Christmas miracle - after over 2 years of waiting (maybe close to 3?) I got an email from my SA saying my Batgirl had come in. I just picked her up - will make a separate post but I'm keeping her wrapped and under the tree until Christmas Day - I'm so excited!

Happy for all of you who got what you were hoping

In my case another miserable year waiting for a BLNR or a BLRO

A new watch for Christmas would truly be a miracle, lol.

Congrats to those who make (or have made) the miracle happen.

Not pursuing anything special for Christmas, but I am extraordinarily happy with this pristine, Z-serial 16610 that I acquired from Chase (AU_911tt) about 5 months ago. It's truly a watch for all seasons.

After a record year I may add a grail to the collection..... nothing huge, but something I've always wanted. It's orange.

My 8 y/o daughter had her leukemia lab work this past Thursday and it came back good! The Good Lord has blessed us with so much, but that right there has made my Christmas the best ever.

…back in early November I think my dear Wife put in a request at the AD for a BLNR and I’m pretty darn sure the AD came through. Can’t wait to find out!

Congrats on the Sea Dweller. Do you mid me asking how long you have been waiting and if you are buying at a small or larger AD? Wishing for a Christmas miracle for a stainless Sea Dweller 43 but not looking too promising.

Since we’re creeping in on the last few days before the Christmas break, what was the latest someone got “the call” before the holiday? Excited to hear any last minute stories … It’s like being a kid again waiting on Saint Nick

This is awesome. I did not know that it came on a bracelet. Checked the website and apparently it is new. It looks really good.

You have some self-restraint by wrapping it back up and putting it under the tree. It just adds to the excitement of Christmas.

Christmas is quickly arriving. I got the call, but still need to take delivery of the watch. Hoping there are many more out there who got their call as well.

I’ve got something on order but it won’t be here for Christmas… we’ll not this year anyway. Eagerly waiting for that call.

Nada for me. On waitlist since Aug for whatevers avaialble first (new ExpII or 41mm sub with date).

AD emailed me yesterday saying their Dec shipment earlier had neither but hoping something comes my way in Feb-March next year. No rush for me though. I'd rather wait another 4 months and pay retail rather than go grey market and spend another $6k on tops.

Happened to me today (Sunday shopping here today):


And I am truly thrilled and grateful, absolutely loved this look from day one and realize just how special it is to get one after the recent news. Many thanks to my lovely AD for looking out for me.

Congratulations! Been waiting one year for one. Was hoping for a Christmas miracle - but was in to see my AD last week, and he wasn't too hopeful.
