    Congratulations, Justin! I’m very happy for you. Your video is spot on.
    I share a very similar story.
    I asked my AD for an OP 41 Black dial and one month later I received “the text.”
    Again, congratulations and keep on posting.

    I have a similar story. I went into the AD just to look. I was looking at a submariner date. I started a conversation with my sales rep. I found out he lives in the next town over from me. I also found out we have similar political views. He gave me his card. I texted him a couple of weeks later and I told him I was interested in the Batgirl. That was on a Wednesday. Three days later I get a call from him asking if I wanted the Batgirl. When I went to pick up my Batgirl, he also brought out the sub. Of course I took the Batgirl. A couple of months later I texted him on a Saturday afternoon about a 36mm Datejust for my wife. The next morning he said to come pick it up. We have become great friends. He even took my wife and me to the 2022 US Open semi finals in the Rolex suite. GREAT time!!! I’m the type of person who talks to everyone. I’m always kind. I believe in treating people the way you want to be treated. In this situation it really paid off for me.

    Congratulations! I had a similar story a couple years back with my acquisition of my Pepsi and ever since I shared my story, no one ever believes me. I give the same advice to be genuine with the right intentions on why you are buying a specific model. Once the AD senses that you are basically not a reseller, it’s all yours. Wear your Batman in good health! 🎉

    CONGRATS ON your new timepiece. I can honestly cosign what you said and your path to inquiring that watch. I went into Wempe Rolex, on fifth Ave. Shoutout to them. When I walked in All the salespeople were busy and I happen to be looking around when I was greeted by a woman which happens to be the assistant manager. We had our little conversation, explaining what I wanted and it was going to be a gift for my 30th birthday. I was offered an opportunity to purchase the root beer GMT. She took my deposit and after 2-1/2 months I got the call. “ Forever Grateful” OHH MANNN that day I will never forget. Welcome to the GMT CLUB MY FRIEND .

    This is all very true. Building the relationship, being honest, upfront and just simply being kind is what works. I have a similar story but obtained a Sub Date w/ Green Bezel aka Starbucks this way. Mine took about 7 months from my initial contact with the AD but only popped in a couple times before my SA called me last week. Congrats on a cool timepiece

    Congrats. I picked up my first GMT Master II (albeit the steel and yellow gold version on a Jubilee bracelet) from the AD around the time when you made this video. It was readily available to buy from the AD window here in the UK but I have been registered for the Pepsi too with the same AD having built up a good sales history.

    You can get any Rolex at retail as long as you buy other high margin stuff like jewelry or other less desirable watch brands at the same time. You want a steel Daytona, just buy a diamond tennis bracelet for 25.000.

    Not sure if you have been on top of the market shift in the last 12 months or so, but demand has been down for Rolex as the economy takes a hit. Another factor is that Rolex is actually producing more models. They have changed their tune to how they somewhat used to be prior to 2017. They’re starting to Give decent to good customer service and many of the AD’s are less arrogant and indifferent.
    There’s many examples now of people with no purchase history getting the watch that they wanted in several months or less time.
    I have several acquaintances that are in the gray market and even they have told me that they are paying much less money for quite a few of the models that used to fetch premium.
