How much are you supposed to spend in jewellery to acquire a SS Sports Model?

As stupid as gray prices are it’s cheaper than buying jewelry you don’t want.

But had to bundle with ladys DJ with diamonds or $13K of jewelry.

Looks like we were in Maui at the same time. I got a similar offer for Blue SkyD.

I mean.... I know it’s the current state of affairs, but this question just kills me. No offense meant to you op :)
We’re “supposed” to spend the msrp for the said watch, but unfortunately these are the questions we’re asking in today’s climate

That’s why, at this point, I just factor in the premium that it’ll cost from a trusted seller here on TRF, and find the watch I’m looking for. These AD bs bundles, lists, etc... not for me.

Yep, factor in the cost of the jewelry, call up David SW and have your watch the next day with no exhausting AD dramatic BS. Over it...

I was just wondering if anyone has any experience or knowledge into how much one would need to spend in jewellery to have a realistic chance to get a hot model such as the Pepsi or hulk at an AD with no purchase history?



Thanks!

I bought less than $20k of jewelry I was already going to purchase and got the BLRO I wanted. Small prior purchase history with AD. Don’t buy anything with the promise of you are next on the list.

The main problem is that Rolex quality doesn't warrant the extra spending. Good watches? Sure. But nowhere near good enough to spend a premium or to buy jewelry to get one. Grand Seiko is all handmade and doesn't ask for that!
