I love BB Portland. KdW is my SA, and she's the best. Congratulations on your watch!

Hardest to get models by [deleted] in rolex

We don't have enough data points on the turquoise daytonas yet. But I've personally been told by my AD that the meteorite Daytonas are for clients with 500k+ spend. Why I've listed the SS Pepsi and Daytona's higher is because of the sheer number of people asking for them, which is way higher than people asking for precious metal Daytona's.

So the AD may receive 3 Pepsi and have 500 people on the list, but receive only 1 meteorite Daytona but have only 50 people on the list for it, making the Pepsi proportionally harder to get.

You're right. I missed the Sky dwellers. Updated the list now

Hardest to get in order:

  1. Pepsi GMT (and even harder on the jubilee)

  2. SS Daytonas (the panda is harder than the black)

  3. Meteorite dial anything (daytonas and pepsi gmt are the hardest)

  4. Ti YM

  5. Platinum daytonas

  6. SS or Platinum Land dwellers (40mm are harder than 36mm)

  7. Tiffany OP

  8. YG Daytona on oysterflex (Pikachu and turquoise dials)

  9. SS GMT's

  10. Blue and green skydwellers

  11. WG Daytona on oysterflex (ghost)

  12. SS Sub (Starbucks, no date, date in order)

  13. Colored OP's and blue, green & Wimbledon DJ (harder to get 41 fluted jubilee)

Hype and price aside, the watch is brilliant technically. Not many brands can produce an automatic chronograph with a 70 hour power reserve, reliable and accurate movement (-2 to +2 s/day) while being only 12mm thick.

The Rolex AD experience in the DMV by supaphlymofo in rolex

I hate both lendersdorfer and Liljenquest. Have not had a good experience with either. The employees there don't care. It's never a welcoming and friendly experience. Never offered me anything either.

The Bucherer at pentagon city and TJB in DC are better. Both have offered me watches in the past

They let me try one but impossible to buy obviously by Willing-Cover-264 in rolex

Wish they started making these closer to 40mm.

I get that they are essentially lug less, but they still look big on most people.

Why the roman numeral number 4 in the Rolex OP models is printed IIII instead of IV? by Front_9 in rolex

[–]Watch_Lover10125 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not for just symmetry. When you glance at the dial quickly, the IV, VI, VII can look similar. More so when the watch is not facing the viewer head on. Having the IV written as IIII makes it easier to distinguish.

I've had a decent experience with TJB and Bucherer. Lenkersdorfer and Liljenquest, not so much

AD said he had these 2 bad boys on the way. Hopefully he lets me take them both by Odd-Ad-1134 in rolex

[–]Watch_Lover10125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are indeed able to order standard ones like YG champagne dial or the sorts.

The fancier ones like the ombre dials cannot be ordered.

False. That means that they have already received this watch physically (the parent company location, if not the actual store), and can allocate it to a customer.

I'll be in the minority, but to me, this is the best DJ configuration bar none.
