Last time when such anomalies happen, I always thought it was money laundering, but then I learned that reputable houses such as Phillips do require background checks as well as verification of legit source of funds for bidders/buyers.

not in the next few yearsHi All, just curious if its possible to walk into any ADs to get myself a rolex oyster perpetual? Can be black, blue dial idm, just looking for an entry level rolex. Thank you
do i have to build like a purchase history to get myself one rolex OP or im better off like getting santos de cartier?even with relationship also very hard to get rolex now, I have relationship with THG but the demand for rolex is even bigger now.
Noted, thank you
Im always thinking of santos de cartier half gold, i took a look at grey market for the OP. The price is almost that of cartier so might as well get a half gold from cartier 
nevertheless, thank you for your input, i'll probably wait out to the day when i can get a rolex OP at RTPIf you really want the Rolex OP at RTP suggest you buy other things and build your profile. Perhaps the Cartier that you like. Without purchase history it will never be your turn, unless Rolex becomes unpopular and nobody wants it and they somehow clear the waitlist of thousands of people ahead of you.Noted, thank you
Oh you mean like going to THG then purchasing a half gold santos de cartier and express interest for a rolex OP?
The fiftysix is like Panerai and IWC, as with all Richemont brands.
Yup, gotta start somewhere and since the price is about hte same then it doesn't really hurt for you to get it through AD then.
Noted, thank you so much
Fiftysix is cartier movement.
Most Panerai in-house movements feature interesting codes like VML, VNK, VOL or VXJ on their main plates, letters which interestingly can also be found on movements from other Richemont brands like Baume & Mercier, IWC, Vacheron Constantin, Piaget and Cartier. These codes are ValFleurier date stamps.
