I would like to say " HI " to you all fine TRF members, and wish you all a wonderful weekend.

I am first on the list at my local AD here in T.O Canada for a Blue SS Sky-Dweller. There are already 20 people on the list for this watch as of today. Can you please let me know approximately what month the AD should receive the first shipment after Baselworld.

pw98 · 26 March 2017, 04:34 AM

No one knows but Rolex. Some models ie. new bezel on existing watch can come out rather quickly but most pieces arrive near fall from my experience. Cheers.

Etschell · 26 March 2017, 06:04 AM

Tudor is now saying may. Rolex is probably may. You may recall last year John mayer and ben Clymer were the first to receive daytonas and the article was published may 21.

HL65 · 26 March 2017, 06:05 AM

I got my Daytona first week of June last year so who knows as they deliver earlier now than years past.

Xerxes77 · 26 March 2017, 06:17 AM

June

j-watch · 26 March 2017, 06:43 AM

Picked up my 116500 in the US last year at end of May. There were few that were delivered in the US about three weeks before that, maybe more.

Cheers,

Joe

Got my DaytonaC on June 8th...

Jack T · 26 March 2017, 07:04 AM

I just saw these today at Baselworld and the Rolex reps want you to know that you and 75,000 other enthusiasts are first on the lists at about 50 AD's. All for just these three watches. And no blue dials produced until the Jets win a Super Bowl.

GB-man · 26 March 2017, 07:05 AM

Probably June in Canada. Don't get too excited lists don't seem to mean much these days.

THC · 26 March 2017, 07:13 AM

A side bar to this question would also be, which of our esteemed trusted sellers will be the first to sell one here?

Yep. Got mine in June also.

Esoteric · 26 March 2017, 07:55 AM

I got my Daytona early June last year, but spoke with two AD's regarding this years releases (Sea-Dweller & Sky-Dweller) and got very conflicting answers.

One said early 2018 at the earliest and the other said in 3-4 months time. I'm not convinced with either of those estimates, I believe that they will know more next week.

You are CORRECT. The AD have another priority list on the side for the VIP customers that spend hundred of thousands with them.

RobertM · 26 March 2017, 08:39 AM

I see that there is a new dial in WHITE for the day-date 40.... when do you think that will be available ???

I remember when the DSSD came out back in 2008, the first one didn't hit Toronto till October, November of 2008.

If you were smart, you'd have given that deposit to Damiani Jeweller's in Woodbridge. They are the original AD in Canada to sell Rolex watches. Back in the day, if you lived in Vancouver and wanted a Rolex, you'd have to fly to Toronto and go to Woodbridge to see Frank for one. They are the dealer that get's them first, and get's them often. That is where I had to go to get my DSSD. RDV couldn't get anything in and had a wait list longer than my sleeve. Humbertown Jeweller's would get one, once in a while but would offer no discount.

Enjoy the wait.

watchwatcher · 26 March 2017, 10:38 AM

There's no way of knowing...but it does seem to me to be getting earlier and earlier every year.

Thanks for the good advice my fellow Canadian. Cheer !

Rocket_Man · 26 March 2017, 02:54 PM

The other question is, will these new watches soften the market on the Daytona C? Less demand.... lower prices?

Phudu · 26 March 2017, 10:49 PM

I don't think it will effect the Daytona C demand.

I just heard from someone there and he indicates that the new SD126600 will have a May/June release if that helps.

Thanks for the info my friend.

Last year Rick got the first SS Daytona at a Boutique in May

RaceDoc11 · 27 March 2017, 08:27 AM

An AD just got back to me they said probably this June.

My AD said November for the SD... perhaps I'm not 1st in the list after all...

1flyndo · 27 March 2017, 10:23 AM

AD said October for SD

Ravager135 · 27 March 2017, 10:29 AM

I don't believe ADs have any idea just yet when they will be getting shipments on new models. It has seemed that in the past couple of years, Rolex has begun to release models much quicker. I anticipate the Datejust 41 will appear first because the model already exists in two tone. This is, of course, just conjecture.

RobertM · 5 April 2017, 06:30 PM

Anyone have info on new dials for the day date 40

zoenoadad · 5 April 2017, 06:35 PM

AD in Florida confirmed yesterday that the new SS Sky-D would arrive in "2-3 months," which puts it June-July timeframe. They also said that the expect to receive "around 200" of them, so I'm not sure if I believe them as that sounds ridiculously high.
