    Fun fact: When I asked my AD for a Pepsi, I was treated quite rudely and he could barely hold back his laughter. (The whole experience that day was bad though.) So I went to another AD in another city and was treated exceptionally well there, even though I was a new customer. But probably one of the rare cases where you have more success as a new customer than as an existing customer.

    I visited 2 Rolex AD’s on the same day (Summer 2023). After those visits, I can honestly say, I won’t be buying a Rolex. They want “control” more than money. I can buy watches anywhere. My collection is more than 10 and all taken care of because I don’t flip! I might & have gifted watches…I don’t flip. I buy what I like and I wear it as often as the collection allows. My oldest is an Omega Seamaster I purchased in 2000. Still wears and runs great. I don’t really dive, so its only required 2 services in all this time. My newest was a Longines, and I’m hoping it last until I stop breathing. I wish Rolex AD’s were about moving watches. But…apparently not.

    I wanted to buy a Rolex so much a couple of years ago but the models I wanted were very hard to find that time. I saved more money and ended up buying a Vacheron Over seas blue dial. Couldn’t be happier. Will next go for a JLC reverso after a couple of years. Rolex case reminds me of a situation when u r absolutely crazy about someone at one time but when u get over that person then u r like wdf why was I sooo into that person 😆

    Honestly the way Rolex have treated genuine customers who will buy a watch to wear as an everyday has been awful. They will be very lucky to get genuine watch lovers back. The flipping nature of the market has really tainted the Rolex name. The AD’s must have sold loads of watches to flippers - why didn’t they realise genuine people will only buy one or maybe two Rolex’s in their lifetime. The whole AD and flipper relationship has driven away the genuine watch buyer.

    Any gold combo is rather easy to get because they’re not sought as much. Rolex “beginners” always go for steel 🤷🏻‍♀️ I got my TT black sub in just over 4 weeks. They had a blue in stock but I found it too flashy on my wrist. It is gorgeous though. My last Datejust I had made the configuration on the website. I wanted it exactly in that particular set up. Production time was estimated at circa 6 months, it arrived in 3. So if you decide to order one, have the money ready, it could arrive much faster than expected. I love that thing and it is the one getting most wear, so do only get the one you want and don’t settle. Settling at that price point is ridiculous.

    Good to hear the DJ and Explorer II are becoming much easier to obtain. In addition to the iconic Sub, I've always really liked both the Explorer and Explorer II. But that being said, I have moved on from Rolex. Back in 2020, more of us had disposable income. Here in 2023, the economy is not good with everything costing a lot more money! So that fact, along with the issue of many of us (myself included) having bought other luxury watch brands, the ship has sailed! In other words, I cannot justify the cost of Rolex (even at retail) now days. But since I've got other great watches in my collection, I am okay with that and no longer have the urge to buy Rolex.

    It's quite simple, anything which has been dropping down to near or below RRP on the grey market the flippers won't take, so the ADs are having to push them out the front door not the back door. So precious metal and two tone professionals have become a lot easier to get your hands on, anybody with spend has been getting the call. Can't believe that they have had 30 steel subs in one delivery, more likely because of the recent grey price drops in Europe on the steel sub and sub dates due to alot of 2nd hand units hitting the internet and grey price now sitting 1k to 3k above RRP in Europe, this ADs sales director has decided to dump the stock from the safe out to the list before they get stuck with theses watches at the RRP above the grey prices, which is exactly what is happening with the precious and two tone subs. But that AD has some front... the last attempt to get an extra 1k out of you, even if they can get half the list to do it that's an extra 15k, but the other half hopefully won't be a fool. Coming from a sales and marketing background myself they're going about it all wrong, never tell a customer you have 30 stock, phone 1 customer and say you have 1 in stock, then do that 30 times...

    I went to my Rolex AD, gave a list of watches I would buy, and got my first call for a DJ41 9 months later. About all the games I’m willing to play.

    Honestly just buy what you want... if you want something put your name down for it or buy it on the grey market if it's going to end up being cheaper. I suspect the "30 delivered today" was actually 30 stuck in a safe whilst the prices went up that the dealer was looking to make a premium on but now can't as the market drops off... might just be me being cynical though.

    After years of looking for a Rolex Sub with date at AD's in a couple of states, I went ahead and bought a pre-owned 116610 ref number from a reseller local to me.

    The best advice is the part about how to ask your Rolex AD about buying a watch. It's a good primer for first-time buyers so they won't be surprised by the dealer's snarky response if they dare to ask them about purchasing a watch. My salesperson was very polite and tactful about it, but he let me know pretty quickly that the watches only go to their best customers.

    Do you think you can negotiate the price at AD for a 126618LB (since it's a full gold watch and times are changing)? I've only purchased watches from GD so far and therefore have no previous purchases at any AD.

    Wow that is crazy, I had a much different experience when I bought my submariner date in 2004. The wife an I were on vacation in the Bahamas and we just walked into an AD (I think it was John Bull) off the street in our beach beach attire, I really did not know anything about Rolex watches back then other then they were a good watch. The sales person couldn't put enough different Rolex(s) on my wrist fast enough, he seemed almost desperate to make a sale. We ended up buying the Submariner date for somewhere around 5k US I think, it was a no haggle no pressure transaction and I walked out of the store wearing my watch, the process took about an hour. I definitely would not go through all of the things I am reading about getting one of these watches today.

    Was at a dealer in Sweden like 2 years ago with a friend that is totally comitted to Rolex. We walked inte the store and he just yelled "this guy wanna buy a Rolex!". The dealer asked me wich one I want, I told him "submariner". They didn't had it in stock, but he suggested me to buy some other modell like yacht master or datejust. Now I have changed my mind and want a GMT-master II, thank god their stock sucks.

    Guess it is also depending on countries, in Hong Kong or Singapore, there is no way to get a SS Sports models unless you support the ADs by buying their house brands first. But the situation may change if the Rolex demands is affected by the economy. Finger crossed. ☺

    Im on the list for several watches, but one very unlikely to get. I did have myself down for a DeepSea D-blue. But I was just in Tokyo and picked up an unworn 2017, still had all the plastic on it, box papers...complete set. Out the door it was $12400 with the exchange rate and no tax. No brainer. My Dad bought his 2022 new and he agrees with the current market I'm in a much better place. Im a vintage collector, but have started buying the occasional newer watch for daily usage. I cant wear my 1655 exporer daily, cant run the risk of sending it to Rolex and them wanting to switch out dials or hands...though there is no flaking on my lume or dial that i can see.

    Can’t decide which sub to get. TT black and gold and SS. I have a friend who works at Rolex who can get me either watch in 30 days. I can’t decide!?!? I am 41 yrs old married with 2 kids. I am not a flashy guy so I automatically want the SS. But I like the TT look. I just don’t know if I would feel too self conscious in it since it’s more flashy. I don’t like attention. I like to be under the radar. I would also only wear it on the weekends due to my job and area I work at. Im not planning on purchasing multiple Rolex watches. So I want to make the right choice. I like the TT look but I think I would feel more comfortable in the blending original classic SS. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance

    I got to know my AD personally and I then bought a Tudor Black Bay 58 and then a bit later a beautiful Omega dress watch, when I then enquired about a Rolex I didn’t speak to him specifically about a particular model I told him why I wanted it and what I planned to do with it, I also expressed some concern about the image and potentiality of being attacked wearing it. The AD totally understood and he recommended the Explorer 2 and he showed me both the white and black versions, he said that the white was the more popular but I was taken with the black and I asked for that one, 3 months later it has arrived and it’s perfect in every way. My AD knows that I’m not planning on buying anymore but he has stayed in touch and told me to pop in for a coffee any time I wish. The whole experience was wonderful. Ellie thanks for a super video and your right about getting to know your AD it does pay off so to speak.

    In September this year I visited the Rolex AD Bucherer in the centre of Paris. I had contacted them by email and they actually called me up and asked me to visit assuring me that they would get me the watch I wanted. So while in Paris seeing my wife off on a trip I popped into their store. I chose Bucherer to begin with because they are being bought by Rolex thus logic would suggest they will be getting more stock. The lady I saw was most gracious and kept thanking me for visiting and choosing Bucherer etc. She asked me what watch I wanted and perhaps I made a mistake by saying that I was happy to buy either the Submariner non date base model or the Submariner date green bezel. I had brought with me a letter explaining my watch history and why I wanted what I wanted etc and it also had all my contact details. I live in France BTW. She then asked me to enter all my details on their app on their Ipad which I did. She thanked me over and over and said I would receive an email shortly confirming everything and that I was now on their wait list. I never received the email and haven't heard a thing since...

    I bet she was new and thought it would be easy to get you what you wanted, not understanding how things worked. When she did, she was probably too embarrassed to contact you.
