Picking up tomorrow: Rolex 116500LN

I got the "call" from my AD. It was actually a text (see pic). My black dial Daytona 116500LN is in.
I will post more pics tomorrow. I can't wait!

Wow, lucky you indeed! Congratulations on your pending black DaytonaC! Hopefully your wait wasn't too long (2 years is pretty common). Looking forward to your wrist pics. Enjoy it in good health. Cheers!

Thanks!

Actually, I contacted my AD (April 3) so it's been about six weeks.

Before everyone jumps on this, I have an extremely good relationship with my AD, which I've been building over the last 10 years.
This is my fifth new Rolex from him (Hulk, white Daytona 11620 (recently sold on TRF) and two BLNRs), plus, I've spent more money on rings and other jewelry than the watches cost for the wife and family at this same AD (they sell very nice higher end jewelry as well).
I've also referred a friend to him who purchased a BLNR - he still has it and loves it.
I am also on a first name basis with the owner of the AD and know the local Rolex rep.

I have a friend who’s not only on a first name basis but is a close friend with the owner of a multi-store AD. She put in a good word for me and I had my 116500 1 month later. Never spent a nickel there previously. Connections matter.

Congrats on the Daytona, BTW.
