Blue Milgauss was in a Central London Boutique. Ain't there any more
Yes, I'm on the list at WOS by the royal exchange but might call around next week to a few more and put my name down

I was at an overseas AD last week and they had functioning watches marked as ‘exhibition only’ on display.
The explanation given was they only wanted to sell to their local market and not have the tourists hoover up the more desirable items.
I didn't know that. I went in and enquired and the lady said that branch was the only one where I could have a chance of getting it without prior purchase history so I just put my name down with her. She also said that by putting my name down there, I can not go on the list for that piece at any other aurum group store which I thought was a bit excessive. Oh well, I guess I'll just wait patiently

That's true. If you want to go on multiple lists then you better make sure you're not on more than one Arum/WoS list. Good chance they'll remove you from both.
Yea, i think I'll call at bucherer and fraser hart and rolex boutiques. How do purchase history work for lists? I bought my explorer at watch gallery in Westfields before it got taken over by bucherer and bought my el primero at fraser hart in one new change. Does that count as purchase history or does the spend have to be in the branch that I'm going on the list at?

Submariner Blue Gold 116613LB, new from AD available at RRP if anyone interested message me for location.
Went around a few yesterday on my lunch break and after work and all basically told me the same thing. Rolex selfridges told me list is closed with a smug grin on his face, WOS regent Street said more chance of getting one by staying on the list at Royal exchange and bucherer Westfields said they aren't accepting any more deposits as they have a massive backlog. Oh well, looks like the wait continues for me

Air King in the window of Mappin and Webb on Fenchurch St half an hour ago.
Birmingham Goldsmith's. Lots of other stuff too if you like two tone DateJust models in 28-36mm.
What dial has that rose gold Yachtmaster got? Is it meteorite or something, given the price of the watch?
Edit: ok just looked it up, diamond paved dial, not seen that before.
There's a 2015 Hulk in a jewellry store in Bahrain. Full box and papers for £9k. Should I be tempted?
Full gold CHNR and a Wimbledon dial DJ in Goldsmiths Highcross, Leicester.

Tried an op 36 on at an indy in Dundee on saturday. Lovely watch but was the silver dial, if it had been white, black or blue I'd have taken it.
It's still there, shop is called Walker the Jewellers if anyone is after one.
Goldsmith in Oxford Westgate 2 days ago.
Probably gone but worth a shot...

Is that a YM on the left in Oxford? They seem to get those in fairly regularly - and they hang around for a few days, at least.
White DJ41 smooth bezel on oyster in Lakeside Goldsmiths today

[QUOTE=bwest76;5344441]Sydney airport,all the cupboards where bare not even display but not for sale watches.
It’s a brilliant business plan.

They are selling all the watches they make, at a price they can pretty-much make up as they go along........
I would say it is the epitome of a brilliant business plan!
There was a “Z-blue” Milgauss in the window of Mappin & Webb in Chester yesterday.
Does anyone ever see 39mm white OPs?
I’ve not seen one in a while and was on a list for one when I saw on in Hong Kong in October. I decided to buy it as they aren’t really that popular over there. I even managed to get a bit of a discount.
It’s still in the box so maybe was a bit of an impulse buy! It’s strange how it differs from country to country as I couldn’t get near one over here in the summer!
With northern Italy and many parts of China in lock-down surely it's only a matter of time that Corona virus has an effect on the Rolex market and more models make it into window displays.
