Still cheaper than having to buy one or two classic datejust and OP just to boost your probability of getting a sports

getting a Date “May” boost ur chance only...not guarantee.
like me...i got a Date for wife...i not really into Rolex but with the craze going on...
why not...told the sales, keep a look out for me.
Coz i wun pay abv AD price for a sub anyway...and i trust AD more for quality and service.
if i dun get a sub...i still gotten a discount fr AD on Date.
than...text me juz 2wks later...got a sub for me if i interested...ofcoz...get interest free installment and also clock my mileage with AD too.

thanks man...but i guess it really depend on luck and the sales u met.
the sales i met told me he heard this current shipment fr Swiss Rolex, for Sub only 5pcs into SG... Rolex allocated my AD 2pcs only...other 3pcs to other ADs.
my AD got so many branches somemore...the branch i went to, lucky to hv 1 of the 2pcs... this branch other sales also wan tis 1pc...my sales fight for me n reserve for me.
so it really depend on heng suay...

sub and d41 if your willing to wait is possible to get from ADs (some more able to swipe card)

Not worth to buy via grey

3% or some greys are direct seller; loss of credit card points over here.

The thing is those people who really want a sub already have one. So if you indicate your interest im sure you get it fast

But the same does not hold true for SS GMT (quite ridiculous that all the SS GMTs are impossible to get now), daytonas, hulks, sky, sea etc.

i noticed that the 'limited stock' response is a smokescreen.
i went to a reputable authorised dealer a year to look at sunburst, the guy said no stock but will take down my number to put on waiting list. few days later he called saying stock has arrived, i told him im not interested anymore as ive bought iwc

the only one that is remotely possible in ADs locally is THG and for a sub no date. sub date and above for all sports model need approval from director with prior purchase history (the guy above bought a datejust for his wife before the sub came through)

sub no date they can sell you without approval. BUT, it depends on the staff you get. because once the stock comes in every staff from that shop will be fighting for it. if you never buy from him/her before, she fight for you for what? so no, it's not as easy as you think. got a lot of friends put 1-2 years already all no call
