Congratulations and welcome! Right time, right place. If you weren't there when you were it likely would not have lasted the day.

Haha, I guess they can't supply a SS Daytona either.

The bluesy is not as hard to get as made out by the ADs in today's market.

Securing one of the most popular two tone reference as a walk in is a big win. Congratulations!

Hard or easy to get, doesn't matter. That's a great watch. Congrats on your first!

Always nice to build a relationship with a purchase you want to make instead of one you have to make.

Congratulations on your ownership of a great watch.

Mine took 9 months.

How we get them, who knows … but a walk in does seem “lucky” … right time, right place.

Excellent watch, congrats. To answer your question, I have seen these pop up and have gotten calls for them from various Toronto and surrounding area ADs recently. It is a watch that comes in and sells fairly quickly, but as I understand, there is no real "wait list" for it here.

My sentiments exactly!

Big congrats to the OP for hitting the nail on the head on his first AD visit. And he left without a second bag full of pearls, bracelets & Tudors!

This is uplifting to hear. I'm in close proximity to the (GTA), waiting for my AD to have one in stock for me. Appears it could happen sooner than I thought
