A seven year wait???
A seven year wait???
I was in that store last week and put my name on their list. The salesman told me "about three years". I told him that's fine as I will probably be able to get away with it in 3 years!Originally Posted by Croftrock

David M Robinson in Liverpool won't take any more names for the Daytona or GMT BLNR.
In Tibet?
DZZZZZZZZZZZZT
Ooops... sorry.
The shortage is currently mainly due to supply and everyone in the world coming to the UK to buy our luxury goods at the most discounted prices in the world. This will not change till all the prices go up and then they will be available again as before, with only the rarer models still being scarce.
Is there another thread for 'non-Rolex spotted in the window' ? I spotted a zenith big date pilot on shark mesh for £3800 down from £5300 today, maybe somebody is after one?
It’s 12 years for a Patel Nautilus and that is if you buy some of their other “complications” first. All the manufacturers say their concerned about people flipping their watches but they love it really
DJ41 with Oyster bracelet, smooth bezel. Blue dial with Roman numerals in Pragnell Stratford Upon Avon. Would have taken a picture but the store was yet to open. Stunning dial
Closer to ten years unless you're spending over 100k in jewellery and watches with the ASD per year.
He's awake again
My local AD had pretty much the same selection in his window at the weekend. There certainly seem to be a lot of James Camerons out there but unfortunately none that are actually for sale !
I am not in the market for a Rolex at the moment but I was walking past... In this a thing now? What's the point? Whole situation is bizarre of course.

The irony of that the exhibition display models are not even that desirable.I am not in the market for a Rolex at the moment but I was walking past... In this a thing now? What's the point? Whole situation is bizarre of course.

The shortage of the real desirable stuff is so acute that they can’t even find any to exhibit, LOL.
Really?
Skydwellers not “that desirable”
Deep Sea James Cameron not “that desirable”
White Gold Sub 41 not……well, you get the idea…..
Saw exactly the same in Chester today, for exhibition purposes in an AD. Im so used to just seeing diamond dot dial ladies watches at this branch that I actually stopped and looked in. Ironically within 300 m there are three greys ( including Time piece watch repairs) that had Ceramic subs for £11/12K and LV’s for £15K.The biggest suprise was two 2021 31 mm OP’s in Time Piece . Both new with five year warranty, the Coral red was £6.5 and the light blue “Tiffany” face was £8.2K . Thats not far off 2X retail of £4150.I am not in the market for a Rolex at the moment but I was walking past... In this a thing now? What's the point? Whole situation is bizarre of course.

To be fair having exhibition models does make the shop window look much better than an empty display and it’s an opportunity to see and try on some. I saw the 41mm Tiffany OP in one recently so went in to try it on - never been on my radar but was curious when I saw it there and I wanted to see if it lived up to the hype.
