Any US ss BRLO deliveries lately?

[dysert]

Have there been any recent US deliveries or have they dried up in favor of other markets? i have seen several more UK/EU posts of receipt but not any recently for the US. Any updates?

[yxc145]

I checked with a few local dealers in Chicago. All said they have received at least one so far. One big chain said they received a handful between the 4 stores they run. So at least one store have received two.

incomings here really dried up after the initial launch. Seems to be the case everywhere as obviously AD's sold their first allocations and most haven't seemed to have gotten a second (im taking deliveries, not number of watches as some big AD's got multiples in their first batch). Its not surprising if the same scarcity model is being used as with many other Rolex models... and its not just the Daytona C

first year release always go to vips and greys, for regular people like us we should expect to be able to buy them starting year 2. Where there will be new sought after ones from basal 2019 and vips loosing interest in the 18s.

They have been really tight with most larger AD's I know only getting one and smaller ones none thus far. My guess is it will stay tight for a long while to come especially as we approach 4th quarter.

Local AD tells me they Received one and the Owner took it for himself . .. Cant blame him.

Wynn AD told me they've gotten 1 per month since they started hitting and they have one of the largest inventories around. Some ADs haven't even received one yet.

[ArtNouveau]

Anecdotally, pretty sure my dealer has gotten one per month since June. Regular but not as many as they’d hoped for.

I know deliveries have happened in Vancouver across all ADs for the BLRO. Seems to be around a handful. I think in general they get 1-2 every couple of months between the ADs.

it's August - I guess in Europe many people (Rolex and related workshops) on vacations

[uniqueMR]

Very slow deliveries so far..

I got mine 3 days ago - can’t work out if it was he first my AD had or the next round of deliveries are beginning

[Vipes]

Large AD in my area only received one so far.

It’s going to be a two tone DJ Xmas.

An AD in Maui was trying to sell me *anything* However, this amounted to diamond marker DJs and a lonely brown-dial Yachtmaster. Lovely sales lady, but she really had nothing to sell.

[dysert]

My AD claims to have not received one yet in Dallas. I am hopeful as they have reached terms with Rolex to add a “boutique” to their store. Maybe when that occurs, they will start getting them.

[T01]

Looks like those of us who haven’t received our’s yet willl be waiting until next year. Just spoke with my AD again. They received a shipment and nada, this being a larger AD as well. Yikes.

How can they spend money to open a boutique when they have nothing to sell?

Poor form if you’re running a business. Even worse to tell the customers.

These have been very tight from my understanding. My AD who owns multiple locations and a boutique told me it will remain tighter than the 116500. Like the blue skydweller they will get less of them than the Daytona...however the demand is much much higher vs the skydweller blue.

I would be willing to bet dollars to doughnuts they remain over 18k in the secondary into next year.

big AD or small? If its a smaller market one it may very well be the first ones they have gotten. Its been since the beginning of June in the UK so second batches should be coming you would think. 1 watch every 2.5 months is still really limited.

My AD in London has said they have not gotten another delivery yet.

Haha! I still don't know why Rolex hasn't figured out which watches sell more quickly, and make more of those and less of the case sitters.

That’s an interesting question.

I know other watch companies have bought back old stock rather than permit deep discounting. The repurchased watches were disassembled or destroyed info recall.

Wonder if it’s Rolex plan to (eventually) fill the empty case slots with the desired models... and let the DateJusts languish?

Has this even hit the west coast? No one I know in seattle or SF Bay Area has gotten one from an AD.

I want into a car dealer recently. They had every variation of vehicle except the one i wanted. I had to order it and have to wait 8 months. Its on purpose to not have the ones everyone wants sitting there as that way most people just buy something else instead and the premium product remains relatively rare by comparison.

South west AD with 4 shops, mine being the smallest so could well be their 1st. Their bigger shops had them at launch I believe.

Received mine last week.

My local AD here in the southeast has only received one. They’ve given me a 6-9 month ETA, and since the wait on my Daytona C was accurate, hopefully this is as well.

She wasn't being fully above-board; I was offerred a scarce piece last week at that AD IF I bundled with a low-demand piece.

[fskywalker]

None delivered locally so far (according to AD.......)

[piratepress]

I'm still waiting for my New Orleans AD to get their first one.

[Texasjim]

My Local AD, Large, zero! TX
