I don't get the hype of Rolex. There are other brands that are just as good, if not better than Rolex, with no waiting lists. Some day I think the masses will come to realize this. Just an opinion.
Been fortunate in Vegas and received a bluesey and a Guinness after 2 month waits respectively, but i live here and their preference ive been told is locals. Im a collector and despise flippers.
I've been waiting for an Explorer II for over 2 years. During this time I have discovered many other great brands. Glashutte Original, Oris, Ball, Rado, Omega, and Tudor to name a few. I may never get an Explorer II but there are plenty of other great watches to enjoy.
I refuse to be a butt licker. The only thing you'll have to say when someone say something nice about your watch ....oh thanks....it took me 2 years and my self-esteem to get it.
Me and my brother ordered 2 rolexes last december and i’m still waiting they said 1 of the 2 watches we ordered would be ready for us to take it last month but it still didn’t come about
Same here. I got super lucky in Utah with a gold sea dweller and since I’m a big guy 6’3 250 lbs athletic = it looks normal sized on me and I’m in love it with . However, I still want a bat girl sprite or Bruce Wayne lol
@@Behemoth66 hi I'm exactly the same 6 ft 4 and have 8 1/2 inch wrist size so the bi metal sea dweller looks great I'm in the UK it took 18 months before I could get one from the ad hoping to get an explorer 2 next and then a green basil submariner .
I don't like that their production is going to increase so much. My local AD has a 2 tone mens datejust and a couple precious metal watches available, as well as a couple ladies datejust models available. Thats about it. They said demand is increasing for the sports models. I've been waiting for a green op 36 or 41 for a year now.
The world is gone bigger last years... 1 Mio watches in 1 year... More customers... P. S. Received my seadweller this Tuesday with luck from my ad. Greetings from Germany
Chinese are into the automatic watches especially Longines , I’ve had a about 6 Rolexes I get on well with my AD ,it must be hard for people trying to get their first Rolex plus there’s a lot of snobbery with AD stockists,I’m moving away from Rolex as there are far better watches out there and no waiting lists ,all the best guys from Scotland
Chinese people in general are very "show - offy " so my guess is that they will not stop buying. I asked a Chinese Man who was visiting California what he thought of other brands such as Breitling and while he thought they were great timepieces. he indicated to me that if you bought one and returned to work in one of the major city you would be absolutely lambasted for not getting a Rolex ,
not at all - there are Chinese watch fans of horology but they represent an extremely small percentage of the people buying Rolex who are doing so as a status symbol and have no more idea what a column wheel chronograph is as they do a cam version ..... as I said they are EXTREMELY concerned about status ..... as I said this is what they told me first hand and this is what dealers have to me also
@@xekret definitely could have with the prices. Personally I just want to be the first owner and get it through the AD. I did think I would have it much sooner but it what it is
