Buying Pepsi GMT in Germany or Switzerland

I've been wanting to purchase a the new Pepsi GMT for a few months. I'm in the US (California) and every AD I've called has a many year wait. I'm planing on traveling to Germany and Switzerland next month. Would I have a better chance of finding it there? Any particular ADs that you would recommend?

Thanks

No unfortunately they are scarce worldwide. Even small town ADs are hip to secondary markets and keep them for the best customers.

It’s a watch that’s extremely difficult to get anywhere in the world

Thanks for all the replies. I think I may end up getting the Batman instead.

No, sorry.

You’ll have better luck finding a BLNR but even that will be extremely difficult to find while you’re there. Best of luck though

I dont think you will have better lick in those nations. If you must know, I checked Las Vegas and they were out and they didnt even take my name for the waiting list. I feel that would be the same at Europe
