AD had a brand new 116610LN and wifey REALLY, REALLY liked it. Sealed in that little box and all! That was exciting lol. Have no clue about SS pricing so I paid MSRP. Is this correct?

Fedex delivering tomorrow, pics to come.

Congrats on picking up the sub.
In todays’s market, MSRP is the discount for ‘in demand’ SS pieces.

Did your wife like it for you, or for her?

As mentioned, the 116610LN is an in-demand model right now. ADs rarely have them in stock, so you usually have to get on a waitlist to obtain one, and discounts are non-existent. MSRP is the best you can do right now. Some gray sellers are charging over $10k for unworn, fully-stickered ones you can buy now. So you did well. Enjoy!

Great to know I didn't get fleeced. It's for her. I tried to get her a PM Rolex but she wasn't having it. She's super happy about the sub tho.

That’s a good price. No discounting on a Sub.

Congrats!

Awesome find. You did well to find one at an AD with no wait. Congrats to your wife. Mine steals my Subs all the time. Glidelock makes it easy for her to adjust and wear without removing links.
