Hey everyone, excuse my ignorance, but is it pretty much impossible to get on a wait list for a steel 15202 blue dial? I emailed the NY boutique a week ago and no response. Should I assume it’s similar to the ss Daytona and pp 5711?

love that watch

however an email isn't going to cut it. be as annoying and persistant as possible and in person. They may just sell you one to make you go away....Or show the passion.

both strategies are similar

Good luck. Yes, it’s a unicorn

I guess so...I suppose it makes sense given the general state of things

its never been easy, even before the demand really shot up. I remember saying a few years ago that the scarcity didn't make sense vs the relatively low premium. It was for sure a supply side shortage. Now its also a demand side too.

Made no sense that the WL was a year long when the premium was no where near the level a year long WL should command. Its different now... and probably longer than a year wait too

Interesting, I appreciate the color. Not really up to speed with AP

Correct

Busyboy · 17 July 2019, 09:26 PM

I waited two years roughly, and I tried hard

Fantastic piece well worth the effort

Chaokhun · 17 July 2019, 09:57 PM

I'm sure they have hundred of emails inquire about 15202, and they will not bother answering them. Boutique visit is the only possible way to get into the long waiting list (with a lot of luck though).

Vipes · 17 July 2019, 11:22 PM

Hey Mike,

Yes, nearly impossible now like the 5711. I just got back from NYC and I couldn’t get on a list for the 15202. I bought a white dial 15202 from this boutique a few years back so I do have purchase history but not enough. I’ve been itching for one but looks like it won’t happen at retail.

I think it will be even harder moving forward with this crazy market and AP going to full boutique.

In UK it's never been in ADs for years, always been a bit of a wait, now it's a Nautilus.

Yes you should.

DGB · 18 July 2019, 04:49 AM

Got one last year with 5 months waiting, looks like now it is a bit harder to get, but no where near like the 5711.
Unless they are playing new games now.

I've been trying to get one as well. They're difficult to find.

I was going to head into nyc, but maybe that’s just a waste of time

Interesting, hadn’t thought things had shifted so quickly, I guess it makes sense
