Just picked up the batman on jubilee 116710blnr
I was lucky enough to get "the call" from my AD this weekend. I raced over to pick it up. Attached are a couple pictures from my experience. As always, it was such a pleasurable experience at my AD.
My buddy who came with me wore his Batman to accompany me. |

So it is possible to be able to find at AD? I’ve visited almost all in Florida and here in MTL, and just keep getting laughed at when I ask for it, nice job dude

He claims in the title, he "got the call", which in forum speak; implies he was on a waiting list and expressed interest, probably in 2001.

Thanks, everyone.
I have purchased several Rolexes from the AD. I was pretty high on their list. Its virtually impossible to walk into any AD and just purchase one. |

Before posting them, hold down CMD and press R to rotate the image, do this till it is the right way round again and it should now be correct when you post. Macs know that most people hold their phone upside down, the buttons for taking the pic should be on the bottom, on a Mac it auto corrects, but forums etc. don't. Great looking piece by the way. Enjoy! |

He got the call in forum speak means he is a good customer of the AD - no random on a list gets the call for a BLNR or any other SS professional model unless they have history with that AD. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The way you described him as being on a waiting list probably since 2001 would imply to me you thought he was just another Joe trying his luck with any AD he could find.
I was just clarifying (as the OP himself actually said) that he had a relationship with the AD he got the call from and that ‘forum speak’ as you describe it doesn’t necessarily mean he’d been waiting along time as you implied. For all we know he might only have been waiting a few months.

Where did I say I thought you were serious about waiting since 2001?
