Put a deposit on one today, I had been on a another waitlist but decided to call another AD. SA said If I put a deposit down next one in the door is mine.
Hopefully that’s sooner rather than later because in the meantime I’m basically obsessed. I haven’t even seen one in person and I keep hearing that’s when it really comes alive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Agreed, I can’t wait to see your “incoming” post as well! Frustrating thing for me is that when I called the second AD (more local one after a move) and inquired about the root beer, the SA chuckled saying that he was sitting on one for a couple days and just sold it an hour ago. I missed the CHNR by an hour, it kills me, but promising to hear that they are coming in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

No purchase history at either since this would actually be my first Rolex (of course I picked a somewhat tough one) but I’m on the list at 2 ADs 1st - NYC (tough market for me) I met with SA and the next day he texted me somewhat of a “be ready I’ll be calling you soon” that was last week. 2nd - CT (waiting out pandemic up here) - gave deposit to AD and they said that I’m next and that it would be “within the year maybe a couple months” So its actually only been a little over a week on the wait list but it feels like forever. I don’t know how people wait years for a Pepsi or a SS Daytona. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

To shorten the wait, admire other peoples pics in this forum, and of course, watch all the reviews on YouTube. Amazing how many asian reviews there are, this watch must be really popular over there. |

That‘s exactly the way I am handling it. Being on the list for a couple of weeks now. The AD to get it before Christmas. Now I am searching YT for new stuff regularly. Gesendet von iPhone mit Tapatalk |

At 7 1/4” wrist your right in the sweet spot with the Rootbeer or any other GMT for that matter.
It’s when you get below 6 1/2” I would say the watch will start to look too oversized. |

Thank you sir, also, to me it appears the ceramic bezel insert appears wider in the GMT’s than the subs. Are my eyes correct or does it just appear that way? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

My pleasure, but as for the bezel width I dont honestly know. I believe they are the same width but the larger digits on a GMT Bezel probably make it look a little wider but I dont think they are.
