Is the white gold meteorite Pepsi hard to get?

Is this considered a hot model these days? I’d rather buy this at retail rather than pay gray prices for SS Pepsi etc

Just a waste of time and space. If you are able getting it at retail and you like it then do not hesitate.

In case you’re legit. Very rare and very hard to get. You would have to be one of your ADs best customers

White Gold Meteorite Pepsi is one of the hardest watches to get. A lot of AD’s have not even seen that watch ever. As mentioned before, you may have to be one of the top customers at a dealership to be offered that watch at retail.

Thinking it depends on AD and timing and relationship to determine how quick to get. It’s not easy.

Well according most all members all Rolex watches are hard to get especially meteorite type dials all models as all are produced in lower numbers, but I sometimes wonder how Rolex manages to sell around 800000 plus watches each year. But most all grey dealers seem to have all of these so called hot models I wonder why. Is it because today Rolex are no longer watches bought to be worn and enjoyed, or is it now that Rolex watches are simply nothing more than £$€ objects.

Yes. If not much harder to acquire than SS pieces. My AD did reach out to see if I wanted one but it was no guarantee of when.

If a watch is currently selling at 2x or 3x retail that should answer your question

LOL, I usually am against the snarky replies because I don’t like to discourage people from asking questions…We were all “new” at some point.

But this one I award 5 stars and tip my cap to you, sir :-)

If you’re a VIP it’s not terribly difficult
If you’re an average watch person probably years to never
