Got the call!
I'm posting prematurely here because I haven't picked it up yet. This is my first time having to wait like this I've owned a bunch in the past (sold them through my divorce). Now have a TT Blue Sub and have been "on the list" for a Batman on Oyster for over 2 years now. Just COULDN"T BRING myself to pay 30-100% over retail. Been just waiting it out.
Never really thought it would happen. But I DID pop into the store about 6 months ago and bought my wife a $1,000 bracelet. I'm sure that helped. Nonetheless I actually got the call yesterday. I was assembling my little 2 year olds tricycle and answered on my watch. Was STUNNED when she told me who she was and why she was calling! Going tomorrow to pick up my new Batman! Wish me luck.

Congrats! I’m waiting on the list, but took somewhat of a different route. Bought one at a great price on the grey market to enjoy now, but if I get the call I can get a new one and decide which one I want to keep.

Dang, how do you guys do it. I've never gotten the call, but also never bought anything at the AD (or put any work in). On plenty of lists, though.

The OP buying a $1k bracelet for his wife prompts this reply? Sorry but a lot of guys on here seemingly can’t wait to jump on someone for buying something from a jewelry store. As if the ONLY reason to buy from said store is for “purchase history”. Believe it or not getting the best deal on every item you buy isn’t always the best choice. Where else can you pop in the day before your wife’s birthday and have a huge choice of quality jewelry? If you buy an item online for the best price- where do you take it for service, repair, or resizing? |
