More new ADs "rules" for sports and limited editions

Market forces will always beat state intervention, or we'd all be speaking Russian as would the Russians...

This Rolex tinkering will have no effect.

I have... date magnification wasn’t correct and the bezel did not line up properly. Rolex RSC has no problem fixing it. Didn’t even ask for warranty card.

The guy was selling the watch to the grey dealer (to me) for $10,600 thats $1,140 OVER msrp. And to be honest, I was okay with it. I was gonna pay the premium because I was desperate enough for an LV

And what made my desperation even worse, going to TRF and seeing all the threads about the discontinuation of LVs + shortages of SS models worldwide. Also, if I pass the watch it will be shipped to Dubai to a customer. So, I was in a tough decision, pass the watch and I may never get my hands on one? or just bite the bullet and enjoy a watch I have eyed for so long? I asked my AD that question.... "Am I guaranteed a watch if I wait, or should I buy that watch?" I asked them the question because I have good relations with them (I was among the first 5 to get daytonaC).

So it is not like I wanted to ruin it for the other guy... I don't know how you're receiving this...

Hmmmm....very interesting. Any more developments?

Yeah, my AD called a week after that “your watch is here”.
I went to pick it up and he said “I made sure you get your watch asap because I didn’t want you to pay the premium. [laughing] now go to him and ask him if he wants your watch for $10,000”
