Second Incoming in a two months!!!
I think I am the luckiest guy ever! I just got into Rolex a couple of months ago and at first I was only looking for the SD43 but somehow I found a BLNR sitting in at showcase so I couldn't give that up.
A month ago I found an AD that is 15-20 min from me so I decided to check it out and just to chat a little so they can get to know me. The SA took my name down for the SD43. Fast forward to this past Friday, it was my third time in the store and I wasn't expected anything but just wanted to say hi and show my face to let them know I'm serious about buying. The SA vaguely remember who I am and after a few min of chatting she remembered and I told her what I was looking for and she told me to wait a few min as she walked into the back. She comes back with a watch still inside the coffin and shows it to me and says is this what you are looking for? I was in total shock and in disbelief that she would have one for me. A person that have not spent a dime in their store and did not try to sell me a package deal! I'm sorry for the long post but just wanted to share my story and that not all ADs are saving pieces for their VIPs or have to spend $50K and up in order to get a hot item. Finally some pics! |
