Same here. I don't get offered random pieces I've shown no interest in.

have gotten 3 Rolex related calls and a few "your wife might like this" calls in the last 2 years.

Only one that I hadn't asked for but I ended up buying it bc I loved it once I put it on

I sent an email out to one of the local ADs that I have visited but haven’t bought from to express interest in the BLRO in jubilee.

Got a call the very next day! Super excited!



… but the point of the call was to tell me that the piece is going to be a very, very long wait, and asked if I wanted to consider an alternative ��

Just got a call for a black ceramic daytona. No brainer for me. It was an early Christmas present from my AD.

My SA checks in with me every now and again. I'm only waiting for 2 more watches. I've been lucky.

I registered interest in multiple ADs and finally had one pull through eventually. Took about 5 months.

“Eventually” is in the eye of the beholder.
IMO, that qualifies as “shortly.”

Congrats.

WoS called six weeks after the purchase of a 300M to tell us the Air-King we asked for was in.
