Wife took one for the team
Like many who start on TRF , I had been lurking for a while before joining and posting. After following advice posted time and time again about visiting my AD and building a relationship. I started visiting my AD back in the spring. I had spent a little money here and there but nothing to live the needle much. I knew I was going to have to spend a more so I took my wife Saturday hoping she would buy something to get us building real “credit” with the AD. I had been trying to get her to buy a watch forever but thought she would buy a ring or some other jewelry. She said if it would help me, she would take one for the team and force herself to get watch - this what she picked out
Next thing I know - I’m also purchasing this the same day I will say I - the AD told me that he knew I would not sell it and that I was purchasing for myself. I honestly did expect to come away with 2 great watches. My wife loves hers and hadn’t stopped wearing it or looking at it. for me - this watch is more beautiful in person and I couldn’t be happier. TRF is amazing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Amazing time we are living in when folks have to build credit with an AD just to purchase a SS professional model. Not aimed at the OP, just still trying to wrap my head around this new reality of Rolex purchasing.
