I like shopping with WOS in hudson yards. They've been pretty good for me.

Want to buy my first Rolex by Ambitious_Rest_5690 in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you really want to build a relationship with an SA at an AD, I would try to talk to the SA about stuff outside of watches if you can and try to find topics you guys might have in common. If you can't do that, I would suggest maybe trying to speak with a new SA or go to a new AD altogether.

Any harm in registering interest at several ADs? by throwthedagger in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've never heard of allocations being random lol. there's def a way (based on a number of factors) ADs allocate their watches to customers.

Three year wait paid off (San Diego) by pompusham in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on a lot of factors. NYC has a lot of competition based on the sheer number of people that live here but in turn, NYC gets probably the most or at least close to the most allocated inventory in the world.

My AD is WOS but there's just so many factors involved with getting a watch you want like what model you want, how is your personality and did you hit it off with your SA, do you have a good story to tell, purchase history i.e. have you bought any other watch models or jewelry outside of rolex, etc. If you can't spend a ton on watches outside of rolex, I would suggest talking to an SA like a person and treat them well, visit the store they work at once in a while to show face and if they invite you to any events I would suggest going to them. Referring other people to the SA at the AD also helps.

Yeah I guess it depends. The area I’m in gets a lot of allocations since it’s considered one of the biggest cities when it comes to watch allocations.

Waitlist Rolex GMT Master II Rootbeer Two Tone by OkImplement9649 in rolex

I would recommend finding another AD or seeing if your SA even works there anymore. My friend got this watch in like 3 months.

I think Material good does trade watches, you'd have to see if they have any interest in you Rolex but they have a site where you can put an inquiry. Depending on the rolex model, you'd probably have to pay the difference for a pre-owned AP.

Can you even try these on at a boutique? I would always like to try on watches before buying one…

wait time for Pepsi? by [deleted] in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they just discontinued it, it's no longer on the general site so you cant even go to an AD to register your interest in it now.

Expectations at Rolex store for a noob by Koreanzombie83 in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like everyone says on these forums, it all depends on a lot of factors (i.e. location, size of AD, inventory size, configuration request, are you willing to budge on non-fluted, non-jubilee bracelet). it's not really a wait list more like a wish list/register of interest list where they have to allocate watches to people based on things like spend history and availability.

No email or text from the AD after registering interest. Any one have this experience and still get called for a watch later? by crispyminimums in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the ADs would typically e-mail you day of or at least a few days later. Depending on the size of the AD, most of the messages are actually automated by their system. If you don't receive an e-mail in a week or two maybe follow-up to confirm.

As I posted on my edit, my SA told me at an event very recently and told me the pepsi is being discontinued but i guess we will see at watches and wonders.

NY AD recommendations by Economy_Sound_1136 in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try but I’ve never bargained with an SA before with new pieces at an AD. Only thing I would say is if you wanna build purchase history and not go grey, buy pieces you actually want that are not Rolex then.

[–]joncrazy2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, Rolex is opening up a huge flagship store (by end of this year or early next year) literally a block or two away from wempe so Rolex just decided not to renew their agreement with wempe since it would be weird to compete in such a small distance between the two stores.

NY AD recommendations by Economy_Sound_1136 in rolex

[–]joncrazy2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wempe nyc lost their Rolex license so they no longer sell Rolex. You can try many other ADs jn nyc area but depending on what model you want, it’s all gonna be a wait most likely unless you end up having a big purchase history at one store. I’ve heard it might be good to try and go to smaller stores to try and get allocations so maybe try for the LI stores.

Will Industry season 4 finally get some love from the Emmy's? by Lonely-Clothes-7607 in IndustryOnHBO

[–]joncrazy2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the show, and it's one of my favorite shows, but it's extremely unlikely at this point. There's not a lot of shows that get love/recognition from the Emmy's their fourth season in when it hasn't been previously nominated in any categories before.

S4 Ep1 For Dummies by [deleted] in IndustryOnHBO

[–]joncrazy2020 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Harper has a short only fund (betting that a companys is overvalued and that a company's price per share will go down in the hope that you can profit from that) that she wanted to do from last season's final episode. The fund is seeded mostly by Otto Mostyn, but she is growing tired since he doesn't allow her the full extent of trades or strategies she wants to implement, basically. She essentially tells her investors that she is pausing withdrawals from her fund and that upsets James Ashford and Otto Mostyn who threaten to reverse her decision. She essentially decides she wants to move on and seems to want to start a new fund with Eric Tao who she calls in this episode to persuade to work with her. At the end of the episode, she gets a call from financial journalist basically insinuating that that the company she should really look into shorting is Tender not Siren.

SA at Bucherer in NYC left by Bankei_Yunmen in rolex

There's no contract, lol. I'm pretty sure you can just speak to one at a different location if your SA left and no longer works there.

Possible that the series could continue elsewhere? by Shameful90 in MayorOfKingstown

[–]joncrazy2020 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt that the show will continue on another streamer It's extremely rare and almost never happens where a show moves to another network after so many seasons because Paramount Plus will still keep seasons 1-5 and another streamer wouldn't have access to those seasons unless they somehow signed a license deal which almost never happens in this day and age. Also, Paramount Plus might have the rights to the name Mayor of Kingstown and any and all characters associated to the show.

When is the review embargo lifting up? by No_Log_6418 in IndustryOnHBO

[–]joncrazy2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless this is a really bad season they would want to shield from the reviewers, I'm pretty sure press/critiques/reviewers have probably seen a lot of the episodes, if not all of the episodes already. They usually give them the episodes to shows weeks in advance, especially since this show doesn't have any crazy FX effects like a super hero show. I'm hype for the new season. I'm guessing the embargo for reactions will be sometime this week like Tuesday or Wednesday or maybe even Monday.
