Too much whining! I Love Rolex-Shortage! Also: Incoming!!!
I am sick of all this Rolex-shortage whining all over the world wide web. I think that this kind of negativity will cause cancer to someone!!!
I am new in Rolex world; I got my first Rolex on June 2017. I fell in love with the brand. For me this situation has always been like this. I managed to get some amazing watches, but there are some that I have to wait for a very long time (BLNR, ss Daytona...). Waiting is not a problem for me. I happen to love the brand, the certain models, all the history behind... I think that this shortage is a great thing: all who are not truly passionate about Rolex-watches will fade away. And we, who truly appreciate the Rolex brand, will get the desired models faster. Stop complaining, use your energy in a better way! If you dislike Rolex, I think it’s only good thing that you’ve found that! Get Patek or Seiko or Apple or whatever! I love the shortage!❤️Rolex Forever!❤️ And if you hate wating, there is always mr. DavidSW, who delivered this amazing (pre-owned) classic from 2017 to me—THANKS DAVID!!!: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congrats to you ! Love the 114060. No whining for me, the longest I've waited was three weeks anyway. Enjoy your Sub. Love mine.

Beautiful. Congrats.
I really don't mind the wait. I love the anticipation and the thought of what's the next one to come around for purchase. Plus it lets me enjoy each new purchase before going on to the next one. |

congrats
Generally, is it harder to wait in Finland? 24 hours of daylight in the summertime and i would think i would make it seem like you are waiting forever

Congrats on the Sub. I enjoy the wait, to a reasonable extent. (Arguably more than) half the fun is the chase, wait, and anticipation leading up to an incoming!

I waited nearly 46-years for my first Rolex (BNLR) and believe me when I say it was entirely worth the wait. I have wanted a Rolex since the first time I saw Rick Flair on TV sporting a DD when I was but a wee boy. A DD is still on the will have one day list.

Congrats! Enjoy it!
I just picked a new 114060 on Monday. My AD surprised me with it when I went in for some stuff for my wife. Love the watch! I had asked about one early in the summer and like you said it shows when it shows. I don't mind the wait. |

Yes, the shortage is cool that it you let you take a break from Rolex and there're so many other cool watches out there beside Rolex. For SS Sport Rolex such as SS BLRO, waiting lists are your best friends and have fun with the waiting games, it may take many years but hopefully your turn will come
