I get the whole idea of being first owner/getting it at an AD etc, but if you’re sure this is the watch you want and you’ll be passing it down to future generations, why wouldn’t you go gray?
You’ll pay a little above retail (for a sub at least), but you can have it literally tomorrow.
In my opinion, the whole AD experience has more negatives than positives nowadays.
I can’t imagine jumping through these ridiculous hoops ADs make you go through.
I have to befriend them, go in the store regularly, buy low-rotating watches, all in the hope that I’ll be offered the opportunity to purchase something in the coming 6-24 months? F*ck that, I’m the customer and my time is worth more than the difference between retail and gray.
I bought a batman and a sub om gray market in the last years. Sub even had stickers still on... never been more happy with that decision.
I agree. I am leaning towards buying gray, but was just going to ask around to see if someone had a connection. The reseller premium on the new Batman is pretty steep though, but subs no date are about 20% more than MSRP.

Lolll..welcome to life
I called Tourneau at Pentagon City about putting me on the waiting list for a sub and she literally laughed at me and said there is isn’t one. There always is one but I’m not an existing customer but I shot my shot.
That store can suck it. They wanted me to come buy a bunch of shit watches that they couldn't sell for the opportunity to buy a Rolex. I got treated like crap there, like the retail working watch jockeys were somehow better than me because I wanted something they were selling. Oh well, they work retail and I make bank. They can keep their attitude and their watches.
OP, what watch are you specifically looking for?
Something about the air King in pictures just doesn't look right. The explorer 2 isn't a bad looking watch, hopefully I can find one in the wild.
