Spending money is just a perception of a relationship .

Totally agree with you. ADs play stupid games and I'd rather spend my money on the thing I want than the things they want to sell just so I have the "privilege" of buying the initial thing I want (and that doesn't even account for the gift giving). Yeah no thanks. Enjoy your Daytona, you earned it.

You did the right thing for you. But unfortunately you encourage this AD game that Rolex wants them to play.
The only way to stop this game is to stop buying grey. Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk |

Congrats on a great watch. Better to pay up then to buy things to get in good favor for something they may or may not sell you. I don’t blame the AD for trying to capitalize on their opportunity, but it sounds like you had way bigger clients in front of you so I think you made the right call. As you said, life is short.

Enjoy! Obviously your Ad can't give you joy, I am glad you found it yourself.
There is pride in that my friend. |

Now you just need to go back to your AD and show them your new purchase.

This is the problem with Rolex that may ultimately cause their bubble to burst. People need to know they can buy the product and what the general timeframe will be. Right now so many feel "strung along". Not good at all. At least you stayed with the brand but you probably bought a watch some AD flipped to move other inventory to a grey. That is why there aren't any at retail or at least so it seems.
