I advise you to go in person and have a chat with the owner/manager of each AD. No point calling them, you need to be in front of them. If you call for all they know you’re a flipper. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agree it's better to be there in person and I've already stopped in a few of them. I'm not a flipper that's the funny part.

Wait it out at the AD. You'll be the genuine first owner of the watch, you'll have saved a decent chunk of money and you won't be adding further to the grey market froth.

I would go AD for sure. Great piece to help with future purchases. As for your concern about the prices cooling off down the road. I feel once for we fully recover from the pandemic PM models will not be sold at premiums and will be in cases again to sweeten the pot for hot SS pieces. This goes for TT, DD,DJ,OP as well.

In general, get it from the boutiques/ADs is good so you can build up the relationship with your SA.
But if the wait time is too long (more than 6 months), msrp might increase also.

Your AD has said they can put an order in the RG DD with certain dials.
I would see that as a omen that you will get it much sooner than you think. Also sets you up as a solid customer for future purchases. |

If you put a deposit and order from the AD and retail price increases are you locked in at the price you agreed to originally or you have to pay the new price?

True but they also said they have 3 of them incoming that are special orders for other customers and 1 is still 6 months out and the other 2 are still like a year out so I'm not sure how they can place my order today and quote me 8 months. I'm afraid they're just telling me that to get me to commit but it could be much longer.

"Buy today and wear tomorrow morning". Most of us are of course NOT in close to such fortunate circumstances. The rose is lovely. I would suggest another dial personally-green or white. |

I think you should buy it now and pay top dollar. Why wait?

There is always the route of buy it grey now, and when your AD comes through, dump the one you bought grey. You might lose a little, you might even make a little depending on the market.

Wait it out. PM non-sports will be the first to cool off.

Be patient. If you have other available watches on your want list, buy those while you wait. Not to be a bad influence or anything!
