I am definitely happy to share my experiences.

As far as I know, demand for rolex sports model is still sky high despite the pandemic and supply is still at a drizzle.

Hence I am grateful for getting the watch despite not being a big spender by any means.

Btw, my guarantee card is still the older version. I guess the new cards will only roll out in batches.

The blue shade is not as pastel as seen on earlier Pepsi models but i actually love this shade of blue as its more discreet and suitable for daily wear.

If you are keen to build up a relationship with a SA, let me know and i can refer you for a discussion. I begin my journey in the same way.

Thanks!

Congratulations! I also own one but every time I see it on someone elses wrist, just reminds me of how beautiful the watch is. You're going to love wearing this one! Happy days and thanks for sharing!!

Congratulations bro! Wear it in good health.
I am still not over the fact that you wear a long-sleeved shirt in the little red dot, though ;)

Congratulations! Nice to hear that you are able to get this here in Singapore without being a big spender, especially in current circumstances.

I have a hunch why you are still getting the old warranty card, I’d bought my white dial Daytona SS end of June from AD with the old warranty card too, even though I have already seen new batches of Rolex released earlier with the new cards.

Enjoy your watch in good health!

What is everyone’s idea of a big spender in a place like Singapore?

Lol. Curious to know as well. Is it like the baller status in ‘Crazy Rich Asians’?

Exactly, so many congratulations on getting a coveted piece without being a big spender, but who knows what their ideas regarding a big spender is.

OP has kindly shared with me his journey, and based on the poster types here, I can already see there would those who think he got somewhere between a decent to good deal, and some who’d scoff because they simply built a good relationship with their AD.

Try cultivating a ‘good’ relationship anywhere in this part of the world without splashing at least some cash. I would love to see that.
