Daytona waiting list question.....

Hi...

Just a general Daytona question I'm surprised I've not seen yet....

If you were on a waiting list at a AD for the 116520 and coming to the top of it sometime soon and the new version was released.... do you remain on that list and it's just good timing so you get the new model or is that list you were on for the last 2-3 years get wiped clean and null and void due to the new version and it's appeal.....

Thanks in advance.

Your AD would most likely let you know when that time comes.

Was there a 2-3 year wait list at UK AD's for a 116520? Always strong demand but surely not requiring a long list.
New list for sure for Daytona C.

Yeah some of your city AD and chain groups were still operating lists but from what I found within a few months the phone rang!

OP what AD is this with?

I believe that would be up to the discretion of the AD and is not standard amongst ADs.

+1. The "list" is a convenience afforded by the AD and in no way binding. If they choose to offer the new watch to those that had been patiently waiting it might be polite or good customer service, but they could as easily and more likely offer them to long standing high volume customers. Just the nature of the game.
