It is very frustrating they they tell you 45 days and the brochure say 45 day but when you search the web you will read a lot of horror stories and no refunds ever. They have a facebook page too that you can read up on. I emailed them every two weeks after the 45 days and they kept saying it is the Mexican government holding it up and they run very slow.
I hope it works out for you and be patient.
Thanks for the tip ! I'll be vigilant. And if it comes to it, I'll dispute the charges and reverse the charge back when the money does come in.

Last weekend I went to 3 AD’s, (london, tourneau, Rolex)...all three of them had subs for sale. I could just as easily go to any of the grey dealers on this site and get a sub delivered to me within 2 days. Not sure why everyone keeps saying a sub is so hard to get when literally every store has new ones, every side store has used ones, everyone and their cousin has one on their wrists, and every grey dealer has multiple subs for sale.

I do understand it’s harder to get them in other countries. But if you’re in the US, there’s more than enough to go around (which also explains why there is no price inflation on the subs. U can actually get them from most grey dealers for a modest discount!!!)

Wonderful you're able to stumble upon Subs like they're DJs - Unfortunately it has been a while since there was one in stock at my local ADs - BTW, I am not in the UK and I am not in the US

Congrats! Looks great.

I hope you walked back into Isla to show off your new Sub that is "sold out all over the world".
