funny to read these overcomplicated procedures and applications when you see the greys are full with BNIB pieces from exactly the same ADs.

My assumption is that many gray dealers have a list of names they use on the certificate to make it look like it was an authentic purchase from an AD. Otherwise if you have the GD owner's name on every certificate, someone will get suspicious. Although part of the deal may be to keep the name blank on the Certificates.

Argh - I'm so jealous. I have two watches on order, and still patiently waiting.

Yes, all the 3 7018s are difficult to get now. The blue is the hardest because of the demand for the mother of pearl dial. Did your dealer mention how long is the wait for the blue?

Passed on the 7018 gray - last blue they got was last year and nothing since.

I think last few months have been pretty slow, stock market bad and trade war and currency
