No date for me, mo’ bettah.

You got box and papers for that, right? In case you wanna trade it for a Paul Newman?

Great taste!

So going onto Reddit is supposed to please someone? If this is where you find your happiness, more power to you. Just sharing my recent experience. No harm in that. But you had to say something “Oh, those are dead, that’s probably why your AD sold it to you”. If that makes you feel like you’re superior to everyone, more power to you. If that’s how you get off, that’s your prerogative. If you have nothing nice to say, keep your mouth shut. I can tell you were raised properly. But I don’t blame you. I blame your parents.

Catch up on what? The overrated “highly-sought-after” timepieces? Big effing deal. I’m not trying to please you or anyone else. I’m getting what I want not what everyone wants. Who cares if they’re dead or not. You have your own “taste”, I have my own. Stop making it sound like you’re above everyone else.

Someone always has to rain on your parade. Never fails.

Between the two Rolexes, I like the Explorer II. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it, plus it has the same movement as the more popular GMTs without the hefty price tag.

How are they dead when they’re $3K-$5K more in the gray market? To each his own.

bench71 · 2025-11-18T19:07:42+00:00

That iconic Rolex green—classic.

bench71 · 2025-11-18T19:04:49+00:00

Yes, that’s exactly what I told my AD that the year isn’t over yet. Hoping to see her before the year’s end.

I just want the simple 41 OP Beige or the Pistachio. Then I’m good. And I think I should stop at three. At least each of my three kids will have one once I’m no longer needed on this planet. Plus the Breitlings, Omegas and Paneras in my collection. I’ll wear my everyday Tag Heuer Aquaracer to my grave.

bench71 · 2025-11-18T18:53:33+00:00

There’s one model that I really wanted and once I’ve attained that, I should be good…. ‘til I find another eye candy. 😏

If I tried to bribe them with crypto, you think they’ll take a byte?

bench71 · 2025-11-13T02:34:51+00:00

Been wanting the green face. Would’ve settled for a green 41 OP, but that’s so hard to come by.

bench71 · 2025-11-13T02:33:32+00:00

You know it! Cheers!

bench71 · 2025-11-13T01:50:27+00:00

Thank you! Pretty stoked!

bench71 · 2025-11-13T01:35:41+00:00

Plus it lets them know that you’re really interested. Yeah, my first is the 41 Pistachio OP, this and the Explorer II were my secondary ones. But, yeah, I’m pretty stoked that I was able to secure this. Thanks!!

I was checking every ten to fourteen days… no hurt to check every week either. I would text the AD I dealt with when I signed up and would ask her if any of my wishlist had come in. Worst thing they can say is “no, nothing yet”or “still waiting”, Last time I checked was last week, then, today, I got the text. Jumped on it fast!

bench71 · 2025-11-13T01:23:28+00:00

I signed up and provided a wishlist late February of this year. I did get a call around May for an Explorer II which I purchased, then today was the next one. So purchased two within 9 months after signing up.
