Thank you.
I decided that even though I have a 40mm sub c and there’s quite a bit of overlap between the 2, I couldn’t say no….and picked up the new DSSD today.
It’s a little less redundant than I expected. The size fits me better IMO than the sub, and the dial is less black than the sub, in most like more charcoal, as if it’s matching the titanium case back.

Was a pleasurable experience. I initially registered interest 2 years ago, and had all but given up, so some financial tapdancing will be in order next month when the CC statement arrives. Lol
I suspect my 43mm Tudor Bronze will be looking for a new home.

Nice. Same here with the sub and DSSD. I can pull off the DSSD and I love the presence of it. So I skipped the sub and went for the DSSD as my daily. It’s a beast and I imagine, I’d break my wrist before I could break that watch.

Lot of calls seem to be going out, based on flood of ‘incoming’ strings.

Got the call on DJ41 three weeks after adding my name to list. No purchase history, had just moved to building 5 minute walk from boutique. Gave AD a birthday gift two weeks after purchase. Thinking about next one already….

Contact Patrick, the OCRolexguy here on the site. I guarantee he can get you what you want, at a fair market price, and he is an honorable dealer to do business with. Go see his brick and mortar store, very impressive.

I got my BLNR in January.....

I was told I had to wait a year, looking forward to reminding my AD my year is up soon.

I've expressed interest in - Exp II Polar, Sub LV, AK, BLRO on Jubilee. I'm hoping I have a chance with the Explorer or AK in 2023.

It's been a year since the last call I got from my AD. Disappointed I didn't get a call for 2022.

Yg ym 42 OF - really grinded on this but I think just a tad too large on me

116519 - said yes as I’ll likely wait forever for a meteorite. Will deal with the, this or that issue when/if the time comes. Not holding breath.

These were within the last month. I take it as a sign that demand at AD decreasing a bit, and as expected on gold pieces first

No Purchase history two weeks for professional model

Visited an independent Jeweller's with Rolex AD status in the UK, no previous history had been in the store before approx. 1 year ago, that said I spoke to a different SA, requested a Black Explorer II, got a call two weeks later, picked up last weekend, is this an indication that availability is on the up or was I very lucky?

its a great watch and I'm happy to add it to my modest collection, I wont reveal the name as I don't want them to get bombarded, now I have a relationship I hope to acquire a few more watches.

It can be done, SA was nice we did hit it off

I got about 4 texts offers from 3 different ADs in the past couple of months for pieces I am not interested in. Whereas previously it was zero.
