Yup me too. Berlin salesperson responded to my question with "if I had one I would show it to you, but I would not sell it to you. It's loyal customers, any of them would buy if I called them."

And I completely agree with his /the shop choice because this is what they are incented to do. The problem is supply, not store policy.

Thanks everyone for all the kind comments.

I have submitted a few replies regarding some questions asked but I believe they need approval, I guess that’s because I am a new member.

Also tried to upload a few pics but I received a message the pics are to big. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Welcome to TRF and congratulations on your Submariner purchase.


If you own a smartphone, the app Tapatalk is a simple way to upload photos to the forum.

Remember when 'got lucky' used to mean something completely different? This is what it has come to. We're lucky, because we handed over our hard earned cash to THEM, and they LET us have what they want to sell?

Nevertheless, the Submariner is classic and if you're going to own a Rolex, that's a great one to have.

Wear it in good health!
