Wait time for 5167A

[Geaux Tigers]

Good evening / what do you all know about wait time for a 5167A? / Thanks!

[yoast]

It’s very long

[tyler1980]

without a great AD relationship its probably not happening. Even then its still a wait.

[Locust]

I was told never by multiple ADs. One of which I had purchase history. Told never on a 5164a as well. 5167R was a year. So I bought an AP. Lol

You can easily get one today from many places online.

[Fat_ninja]

We were told 3-6 months once the order was accepted

[enjoythemusic]

Here's a really nice one with Tiffany dial. Albert is a great guy too!

Thanks All! I’m taking with AD today. Will see what they tell me.

Easier to get the bracelet version since less porpoise, higher priced and harder to flip

[1688]

Amazon has some certified pre-owned pieces...

But, they do not come with papers...

My AD can get one within 6 months.

Bahahahahahahha.

I seriously doubt they’ll be selling them over the phone. Ha.

I think the bracelet version is the better buy anyway, as you’ve got the versatility of strap or bracelet.

I've been told never by most and I've made an effort.

I have no relationship with a Patek AD (there's only one here = zero chance atm) but I'd also like one. Times change. Markets change. I can wait.

Go visit your local ad, I sincerely doubt they will turn down putting you on the waiting list.

I approached an AD and was told they would not even take my name. I had never purchased anything from them, however.

Thanks. I'm already on the list for a couple of Rolex's. One of which they offered me in June (pretty hard to get model) and I passed because I was out of state dealing with aging parents and really wasn't up to speed on what was going on with Rolex. I passed as quickly as I could to make sure I didn't hold them up on a sale. I had only lingered on that list for about a month. It's been 4+ months now since I passed and they haven't offered me the piece again and they don't even respond to email inquiries about status. I assume I upset someone at this AD by passing.

[ttomczak]

I wonder myself. But I have heard the bracelet is easier to get vs the strap.

[SDDS]

i made a deposit at my AD whom i have a relationship with back on June 2018 for the 5167A, and i was told i will get it sometime next year in 2019. there is 2 pieces to be delivered to clients, one on Dec 2018 and one on Feb 2019, and mine will be afterwards dont know when exactly, but i was told that i will have an exact ETA end of Jan 2019

[Superburrito]

My local dealer has closed its waiting lists for PP sportswatches.

[CamSLC]

I walked in the AD in Seattle WA last week and the very polite sales lady advised me they have about a 2 year waiting list for the 5167 when she saw I was wearing mine.

I am very surprised to hear this

[zardoyator21]

in the case of the UK, any chance anyone is aware if the ADs are giving papers specially for sought after PP models (5711 etc?)

thanks!

Rhone keeps the papers on some models routinely... much above 5711 level though. Maybe some AD's hold them though for other models, no idea.

Truthfully you need to be more concerned with getting the actual watch, papers or no papers.

[zardoyator21]

ok many thanks for the info

Could never have imagined this when a couple of years ago this was the only SS sports that was a regular in ADs.
