Is 15202or a boutique only?

[pvinpvin]

Hi, does anyone know if I can order the rg 15202 through AD? Or is it a boutique only just like the steel version?

Thank you

Never used to be. But since ADs are a dying breed it’s kind of a moot point.

It's always have been a boutique exclusive, however distribution wasn't as strict in the past so we did find them in ADs. People purchased 15202st in AD stores few years ago too. Nowadays, 15202OR is "officially" a boutique exclusive. And yes ADs are dying breed, they stock nothing but women watches.

Incorrect. Even the ss jumbo was previously not a boutique exclusive. About 4 years ago they could both be had at ADs without issue.

For sure. He does have a point though AP 3 years ago was very very loose with distro.

25% off all day back then

There are numerous threads where people were getting discounts on jumbos at ADs and wondering whether 10% was enough.

It was only bought by WIS no doubt. Anyone can see that. I don’t think the public to this day knows the difference from a 15400-15500-15202-15450.

Just dealers eating up supply and WIS slowly buying. Last watch I’d want in on at market. At retail a true gem.

All threads need a picture in them

that's a loose term, they want to say it is but in fact many ADs carried the gold Jumbo and if it still hasn't sold should be available at an AD. With the surge in watch interest especially the Jumbo it is likely sold out but I wouldn't completely give up looking for one at an AD if I was in the market.

You might still find one somewhere, but I’ve heard from multiple sources (multiple boutique managers, someone from corporate) that the 15202OR (and both BA variants) are discontinued.
