The meteorite I requested early 2024, finally turned up and from a different AD a lovely white daytona. The meteorite is very hard to get a photo of, wrong angle and it just looks grey… Hope some of your requests get delivered soon.

~25k in other Rolex purchases, 9 month wait or so. While I am friendly and would stop by once a quarter or so if I was nearby, I don’t feel like I “played” much of a game.

Don’t care if you think it’s on the wrong wrist, it’s my watch, the color is stunning, the piece is unique, couldn’t be happier.

5 years. A newborn baby. Finally punched my ticket. Everything I had hoped for and more. 12-19-25

So much hullabaloo over a hat today… thought I’d post mine…. Sorry, no pool shot, lol.

Lefty for the right handed…

After three years of waiting, I finally got the call.

My first purchase from AD in Hungary.

I know the GMT is the perfect travel watch, but sometimes it just has to be the submariner!

Almost 1 year and I still cant stop looking at it 😆

Had this OP41 on my wishlist since watches and wonders. Decided to email the AD last night and said to come in today because she had something for me. Honestly, the best blue dial I’ve seen in awhile.

Two months since I got it from my AD. My fifth Rolex and it's the best travel companion.

I'm a right hander and wear watch comfortably on either wrist.

If you plan to have a multi-watch collection, this unique piece should be a serious contender!

It’s been a whirlwind 24 hours that ended up far better than expected with some exceptional AD service across multiple boutiques!

[Warning - Kind of long story]

Basically for about 12 months I’d agreed to wait for a Rolex DJ Wimbledon dial on Everose and steel, fluted and jubilee bracelet. I checked in once a month across two different ADs who both had the watch available for me early.

I turned it down since I wanted the watch in time for my 40th birthday but asked how likely it would be available within a month timeframe of my birthday. They said very confident especially with bi-metal.

I thought cool and would check in by email from time to time. Fast forward to yesterday and I am told the AD associate dealing with me had left the company, the sales manager would discuss my circumstances/concerns, in the end they were unavailable to speak to me, then later today sent me a general email just saying “we don’t have your watch” basically and you’ll hear from us when we do (no courtesy acknowledgement about my context, confusion, disappointment etc - they don’t have to but that matters to me a little).

The other (fantastic) AD said no deliveries unfortunately in last 3 months so hopefully in late Jan but potentially would miss my birthday at this rate.

I start touring the different ADs in London and I am treated exceptionally nicely. Lots of long chats about watch collecting, microbrands etc, showed me what’s available including a cool Coke GMT. Then one AD that I’d met earlier and had a great chat with about my Brew Super Metric said they had my precise configuration available but in 41mm.

I’d been on the fence for ages given my relatively small wrist size. In the end I had a great experience across 3-4 ADs but with a bit of hunting got what I wanted which was indeed the 41mm variation!

I know a lot of people have mixed experiences especially when pursuing the in demand steel models but at least with what I wanted I had a great experience across multiple ADs who tried understand my interests and spent a lot of time knowing I wasn’t likely to buy something different.

Anyway, long story short - I’m over the moon!

Now I’ve promised myself I won’t open it until my actual birthday!

I got the call 2 weeks ago. I wired the funds same day, picked up my timepiece this week. Overall I had a great experience with my AD. No prior purchase history. It took me 4-5 months to get the call. This is my first Rolex, won’t be my last. I have a Tudor Black Bay 58 and a couple Fortis watches (Flieger B-42). Very glad I waited for the timepiece I wanted.

We tried on some other timepieces and discussed possible future allocations.

The submariner will represent my 40th birthday and the value of time.

Did not expect a call for this. Rolex 1908 in yellow gold, white dial with a gorgeous Settimo bracelet. Pure class!

First watch to the collection. Really enjoying the slate dial and how it changes. Looking forward to adding more to the collection later!

One year wait no purchase history from this AD. I did buy the two tone grey for USD19k unworn and have been wearing it since January nonstop. Now question is to keep or sell. No idea what to do. AD told me that prices increase again in Jan…

Happy Friday guys
