There's no watch dealer of any brand that has what you need. You have what they need. The Rolex game is for truly wealthy people who have given away their power in this bizarre retail microcosm, because they have so much money that it's inconsequential to them. You shouldn't even try to play on their playground, just get an Omega or something.

This video is the truth. After being on waitlists for several dealers for the past 3 years, i randomly stopped by one of the dealers and asked where I was in line. The sales guy, who was super cool, sheepishly explained that there is no waitlist. A sales person will take down your info, and if they don’t think you are a serious buyer or otherwise unworthy, will throw that card in the trash the minute you leave. Others they might hang onto for a short period of time if other buyers looking for the same thing fall through. I told him what I wanted. He said he might have one in a few days. He took my info, and I wondered if he might toss my card in the trash. 4 days later he contacted me saying the watch was arriving in two days and I had been chosen. Two days later I picked up the watch. Simple as that. One week turnaround. Probably all because we hit it off and had a pretty good conversation.

@Theoriginalcoolguy
@Theoriginalcoolguy 3 месяца назад
@@AG-en5yI don’t remember how many times I went into all three stores I was on “waitlists” for all three years. But I can rank them in frequency by distance. The furthest store from me which is where I finally got my Rolex - I probably only went there a couple of times a year. The watch I got was not the same model I was on the waitlist for, but I was on the fictitious waitlist for that same watch at the other two stores. I went to the second furthest store a few times a year. The one closest to my house - I went there at least once a month. What I don’t mention before is I actually bought a Tudor and a Tag Heuer from the closest store in an attempt to buy my way up the waitlist, but it didn’t work. They never called me.

The biggest problem is the fact that Rolex AD’s started to sell “pre owned”. They’ll sell it to a friend or a business partner, buy it back ten seconds later and now its considered “pre owned”, and they have the gall to then price it according to the secondary market. To me, that’s even more slimey than the fact that they’re in cahoots with grey dealers. It’s like insider trading (to my brain)

They had the watch already in the back. Your gold breitling has taken a very hard moving piece of stock off their hands. I would go back in a few months and try see if you can get another desirable Rolex. Taking a gold breitling off their hands will usually allow credit for at least 2 reasonably desirable professional models. Or a single very hard to get model like a steel Daytona or jubilee Pepsi.

Hi Roman, regarding the OP. My AD (in Holland) said that the OP doesn't have a waiting list, but they take orders when you put down a deposit.

I got 35% (15,10,10%) he just kept going down 😂 I was thinking he would go down to cost and I’d take 10 of them 🤣. But John Mayer Daytonas were $25-29k all day Platinum Daytonas were $48-58k all day The olive DD40 was going for around $27.5-29k grey .

When I went to an AD less than a week ago to “express interest” in a new Tudor, the guy that handles Rolex & Tudor was on the phone and a replacement was sent to scribble on a card (which likely went into the circular file cabinet since I only bought 3 watches from them before). The Tudor only boutique (different shop) is a more likely source since they don’t have a Rolex salesperson handling Tudor. I buy mostly at Omega and Grand Seiko Boutiques (no jewelry no Rolex to push).

Not a waitlist. It’s a registry of interest. There are no specified wait times. There are thousands of registrations done a month and a small inventory to work with between locations. There is not one client that is more special than the other. The reason for the lengthy wait for your registry is because of how many pieces will be received throughout the year at a specified location and how many registrations there are; for example: a store gets 50 sub w/date a year and have 4K registrations. That’s why it takes time.

Is buying from a Rolex store less expensive than these gray market Rolex's? I am looking for a Batgirl (to treat myself for my retirement from FDNY 27yrs in Manhattan). Online retailers want 17-20K.. What would I expect to pay if I were to get on a wait list? This is my first Rolex. Thank you. Joe I'm in NYC

It’s different strokes for different folks. I just returned from 3 weeks in Japan and you’re not walking into any AD in any part of the country and every watch on display has a little sign next to it saying For Display Only.

I walked in with interest on the Wimbledon dial 41mm 2 tone Rolesor with Oyster on fluted bezel, took two weeks after registration. It's amazing how many videos are talking about mark up and resale, Tbh I bought that spec because I love it and I plan to keep it many many years down the line!

Roman, just out of interest , can you do a short video one day showing us the first Rolex that you wore when you worked in the bank and the story behind it and how you got it. It would be interesting and fun . Was it a gift for Dad and Grad's day or how you attained it and what it cost back then. Cheers

I have an amazing relationship with my AD, I’ve had every sport model from them except a ceramic Daytona! I’ve been waiting 7 years for one and I CANNOT get one. I have spent over 200k with my ad and still cannot get it! I’m getting married next year and have requested one to wear on my wedding day so I’m hoping they will give me one. There’s definitely not a waitlist, if it’s a special occasion they can have a watch on your wrist within the week! It’s who they like and if you fit in!!!
@kfkwAL7
@kfkwAL7 Месяц назад
If you’ve spent 200k, you can afford to buy one on the secondary market. Of those 200k watches- how many did you sell? Did they know this and don’t want you to have a Daytona to make money on?

When I bought my GMT-Master II back in 2003, it came with an all black bezel, which I didn’t want. In seconds they replaced it with the red and black bezel which I wanted. Can you do this with the new models? It seems odd that they go for different prices based on bezel colour if it’s still an easy swap.
@bddc201
@bddc201 2 месяца назад
Probably not. I thought the saleslady at the AD was going to lose her mind when I asked if I could purchase a fully brushed oyster bracelet for a new GMT ( I don't like the polished center links). They blacklist people for that, believe it or not (according to the saleslady), and they will never sell you another watch or even consider taking it on trade. All because of an easily swappable bracelet having been on there, that's virtually exactly like the one it came with.

I went in to my local AD during the leak of Covid and got a sub in three months. I went in, chatted with the sales people, and then followed up. Eventually, they gave me the owners email. I emailed him, and literally 2 weeks later I had a watch.

So I went into an AD to put together a wishlist of multiple watches. I asked for a blusey, Pepsi, black dial stainless Daytona, blue Skydweller or green. We chatted for a little and 90 days later I got the call for the blusey. With the other stuff I have gotten no indication that they will be getting one for me anytime soon. I did ask if something could come in for my 40th birthday this summer but they have not really been able to get me anything
@bucknut2000
@bucknut2000 3 месяца назад
Outside of the Bluesy , those are the harder ones to get. I imagine the skydweller, than pepsi and the daytona. I got my Bluesy like in two months, 2 , 3 months later I got the candy pink 36 OP and than i got the Batgirl took me about 10 after putting myself on the list.

The grey market is almost 60 years old! it hasn’t and isn’t going anywhere ! Just because the prices change doesn’t mean the market is dead Just like the stock markets fluctuates and crypto fluctuates ! Luxury Bazaar is almost 30 years old , Happy Jewelers is almost 50 years old , CRM is almost 13 years old . The recent watch bull market Only lasted about 2 years (Covid) . Which only represents about 3% of the entire grey market lifespan . Not to mention Rolex (119yrs) , AP (149yrs) Vacheron 270 yrs , Patek (185 yrs) , have all been in business for centuries , and yet some people actually believe that “the watch market is dead” when it’s centuries old and the grey market is almost a century old and you think because we had hyper inflation for 2 years , and many many watches are still 2-5X retail and still impossible to obtain !!!! You’re delusional

I don’t know how did you come up with these info?. But based on my experience in Las Vegas and Los Angeles, there is no (actual)waitlist whatsoever. Only a certain model like Steel GMT, Steel Daytona, Blue Sky that’s for VIP only. Even that, there’s no waitlist/wait time. It’s all up to the Sales person first and then the store manager if they wanna sell it to you. Good Personal relationship with the sales person is the main key to get your Rolex at AD

Depends where you live when it comes to ADs. If you live in a very affluent area and no buying history it is a hard no. If you live in the DC DMV area, Raleigh, Durham area and places like these good luck. You need purchase history for a sub. You are better going grey. By the time the AD calls you the watch won’t be that important to you.

Come get it….theb I grab a Daytona from the back stock we have and I sell it to him

My AD, Mayors in Sarasota, owned by Watches of Switzerland, has all the exhibition models in stock, but i’ve asked to try them on and then i wind it real quick and guess what? The watch works so it’s not an exhibition model, they are playing games. By the way, i’ve been on their fake waitlist for 5 years.
