I called my AD 2 mins after the release , wouldn't do anything over the phone even though I've had 6 rolex off them in the last 5 years...said call in so was there in 15 mins took details and said my interest would be sent to headoffice who would then make the decision
As I wanted to order the deepsea aswel and am on the list for the ceramic Daytona they said it might be a problem ...so who knows |

I’m just mad I have to wait until they start delivering them and I can’t just pick it up today.

My AD had "tens of people" on the list 50 min only after the announcement. I couldn't get through till then, so I'm at the bottom of the list, I bought a SD43 from them last year. I've been told 'at least 2 years wait". I'll probably have changed my mind by then or give up completely.

Talked to my ad today...had a list of 10 names so far, im cool with number 11. Half the people usually drop off or a life happens moment comes up so the wait ends up being much shorter. October/November my phone will prob ring.

Called an AD today. Apparently they had a pre-list, but even then I am not that far down. I suspect they will not start getting inventory for a few months, but I will still get a call by the end of Summer. That said, I am expecting a call on a Hulk from them in the next 2 weeks
I have turned down 2 other dealers Hulk calls in the last 2 weeks |

I called my AD this morning where I purchased my BLNR and Daytona and was told I’m #12. I called my other AD where I bought my Daytona and D Blue and was told they are not putting anyone on a list because they do not have an ETA on the watch and don’t want to mislead thier customers. During the end of the call my rep said once they have better visibility, I will be notified and put on a list for the Pepsi. I hope Rolex floods the market to meet demand.

How big are these AD’s you guys work with?
I’m a small fish with maybe 20-30k spent in 10 years and they all know me, know who I work with, and know my wife and always ask about my kids. |

I've contacted a local AD in the Bay Area (Kern's) And they've informed me that it's going to take a minimum of 6 months before they anticipate getting one.

I would never believe this had I not seen it in person. But I was able to see the actual list from my AD. My name was third on the paper. That gives me some hope!

If you are an established customer at an AD with a signficant previous buying history you will always be able to get the watches you want. It does not matter if 50 people called before you to put their names on a waiting list when the AD does not know them. It’s best to just stay loyal to your AD.

It's more important to see the names around you and then Google the hell out of them, esp looking out for TRF usernames...

I made the stupid mistake that I thought I would have better luck if I actually walked into an AD. COUldnt get off work in time so ended up calling yesterday to hear of already abysmal wait lists. I found one AD nearby that was willing to put me at “7” with a deposit. Wasn’t a large deposit but I bit the bullet and did it. This will be my first Rolex, thought I’d have to wait years (possibly decades) for a ss Pepsi. Couldn’t pass up the chance.
