I guess I do not like the way the AD jerked you around, having you come in for the event, showing you the watch, watching you salivate over it, then telling you cannot have it, calling you in a few day to come and pick it up. I wonder if this is an AD ploy to get you very excited about something, not that you needed to be motivated.

Sometime the event like this is by invitation only. I think you're pretty lucky that they let you in.

There is no movement on the watches that they shows to customers and let people try on. All of them will send back to Rolex after the event.

All the real watches were in the back room. I went to this type of event on Sept. 16 and got the chance to purchase 2 new Sub. (126610LN and 126610LV) on that day.

Congratulations for your new gorgeous timepiece. Actually this AD was pretty nice to you, gave you the chance to get it very soon.
