London Rolex AD Waiting Lists

[Speedy2254]

Its impossible to answer your question apart from the fact you virtually no chance at all of getting any of the models listed. The so called lists are smoke a d mirrors. I would set your sights on a Datejust model which are feasible to obtain within 2/3 months and even that is changing to 6 months and beyond!

This is why I jumped at the chance to get the rhodium DJ when the AD said he had one. My local AD was quoting an average wait of 5 months so I couldn't ignore the chance to get the model I wanted, at RRP, without having to wait for it.

That's only 700k watches/year. I have heard estimates of 1.5 million per year, this is only word of mouth though so not sure of accurate.

Also why are so many being sold on the grey market, esp the new ones? Surely not everyone is flipping immediately?

800,000. The number of watches produced at Rolex every year (which is only known because Rolex has its movements certified by the official Swiss chronometer control center, COSC, and their numbers are public).

Loads available just at inflated premiums via grey dealers. As has been said on other threads there isn’t a shortage they are just being flipped to the grey market or in people’s safes for I investments.

Which makes a shortage.

My point was they are available. It’s not like they can’t be bought at all and in fact are available in quite substantial numbers.

Less watches than buyers = shortage.
