Hello, new šŸ  here! How difficult is it to get my hands on new Rolex these days? Looking for 2022 new datejust. Should I call the retailers to check for availability before heading to the stores so I donā€™t come back empty handed?

Glad you took this question here, I saw some of those answers in the general consult bowl. You should find an AD around you that you like and go in and be very kind and establish a relationship and explain what youā€™re after. You will absolutely not get it immediately, but itā€™s the first step, if youā€™re genuine and they like you theyā€™ll put you on a real waitlist. But itā€™ll be good to go in bc they may have some exhibition models you can try to see what you like. Otherwise you just need to get one off the grey market for a markup, which means spending more + not establishing an AD relationship in case you want another watch from them down the road. Once you have purchasing history you get massively prioritized in line. Good luck.

Yea, except I think that is for a specific bag. For Rolex/AP/VCā€¦ itā€™s pretty much every watch they make (except really weird configurations/models)

Hey there! Itā€™s certainly not a walk in the park, but getting a datejust is not as challenging as some models. Is there a specific configuration youā€™re after?

like

Cool configuration! Btw, when you walk in I wouldnā€™t say ā€œno adjustments,ā€ every watch is just configured a certain way, one way is not standard vs another being adjusted.

Look at the PDT threads, there is a wait list and a relationship building you have to do with the ADs šŸ™

Was like this pre-Covid for certain popular models like the Daytona and GMT. Now itā€™s every model.

I walked in cold, chatted with an AD, and had my DJ 3 weeks later. This happened last month.

I want one too!
