"vetted and qualified"...did you roll up in an exotic or high luxury vehicle perhaps in full view of the staff? :)

I wish. There have been some lively and spirited discussions on the topic of vetting and qualifying. This is a great one:

And I’ve shared my own thoughts and perspective on how I believe ADs/SAs vet, qualify, and background check their prospective customers:

People have numerous and varied opinions on the topic.

I have the silver wheel version

That would be more of a Smurf I reckon.

I had an STi also, and a Baja STi! Now I'm a Tesla nerd like everyone else.

Awesome! Dammit I can't wait for mine.

HACKNSACK44 · 26 September 2020, 01:39 PM

Congrats!!

dmash · 26 September 2020, 01:43 PM

Congrats OP!

But let’s be honest there’s not ‘hundreds’ on a bluesy waitlist at any AD, not even NYC

Flybak · 26 September 2020, 01:44 PM

Congrats, beautiful reference!

Viral · 26 September 2020, 02:27 PM

which AD?

Alfredo. · 26 September 2020, 02:37 PM

Looks stunning! Huge congrats!

JebM · 26 September 2020, 02:57 PM

All I took away from this is vetted/qualified and no history.

Very nice ...surprising how different it looks with ‘white font’ instead of gold from prior model same for 126618 now also white

DM101 · 26 September 2020, 04:15 PM

Congrats !

Ed99 · 26 September 2020, 05:22 PM

Wow you are one lucky guy. Congrats!! It’s so hard to get your hands on any of the SS or TT subs now a days. This watch goes for easily $21-24k USD new in the grey mkt.

kaiserphoenix · 26 September 2020, 08:54 PM

Yep for the TT people still can get them for sure but still nice watch!! Congrats OP!

rmlovett1 · 26 September 2020, 08:55 PM

Looks great! Congrats!

Rohan1806 · 27 September 2020, 04:18 AM

Congratulations!

garyk · 27 September 2020, 05:00 AM

I'm hoping for a no date. Other than Daytona, always had a date on a Rolex...

oldman2005 · 27 September 2020, 05:12 AM

Nice! Congrats! Not to take anything away from your post but getting a stainless steel sub is much tougher, ADs are typically glad to sell you the TT

Boopie · 27 September 2020, 05:26 AM

Congratulations! It looks great! Enjoy it in good health.
