First, Rolex is releasing more sports watches compare to past 1 or 2 years. Thus, obtaining one will get bit easier (still limited) than before. If buying one, buy from AD at retail. Never ever pay more than retail and from a reseller (grey). Two days ago, I walked into a AD enquired about Pepsi, no stock, but was given a sales person number to contact that I would be contacted when stock arrives. When buying this kind of goods, let your head dictate not your heart unless you want to throw away couple of grand for sake of obtaining one.

I hope to see your Pepsi in 3-4 Years.

Say if 4 years; base on year on year price increase, say, 10% year on year; end up the "Retail" price then is even more than grey seller markup price now. And thats even "if" its your turn in 4 years' time......

Really good luck to you......

actually, cannot like that count.

if you can wait, then go ahead and wait. i mean no harm. can get or cannot get, money still in your bank.

if you cannot wait, might as well bite the bullet. win or lose at least you wearing it.

paying premium is a norm, unless you have a account with the major AD, not just buying rolex, but other watches, then you can request a sports model with your SA lor.

i know some people do that and got hulk, batman all at retail. but you must thick skin everyday annoy your SA + support them by buying and intro customer to them.

don't listen to those noobs, come here make noise like its edmw. many idiots around.

Cos you and your friends have to wait so long doesn't mean I have to wait so many years. Within this year is possible obtaining one. As I have very first ceramic bezel bought it in 2010 so not really need to buy it, but maybe for my friend at a retail making not a single cent.

In early 2017 my friend could saunter into Rolex at ION and troll a xinjiao SA about buying a Sub date. Sauntered out without getting it, and still managed to snag one at retail price at THG@Millenia Walk upon walk-in. No connections, no deposits, no waiting lists, just in the nick of time before everyone lost their minds and wiped out every SS sports model till now.

True story.

It's a joke because you're using your experience in 2010.
Don't share your past experience that doesn't exist anymore.
Don't mislead people. Don't be an a$$.
It's end of 2018 already. The world has changed.
Trump is the USA president.
Wake up. God.

Exactly. This is what it is going on.
Don't listen to noobs that come in and paint a beautiful unrealistic picture for people.
The days have gone where you can simple stroll in and buy a rolex sports at retail.
If you still can. Grey dealer won't be thriving.
Wake up
