Yes, and one has to fill his purchase history with dog watches first in order to later enjoy a place on a waitlist for the hyped watches, so this model is excellent for everyone except the final customer.
If the customer agrees on "the Scheme" then he pays;
- Rolex margin on the hyped watch,
- AD's margin on retail,
- AD's additional revenue paid him by a Grey market dealer,
- Grey market dealer's margin.
If the customer does not agree on "the Scheme" then he pays;
- Rolex margin on the dog watch,
- AD's margin on retail (dog watch),
- Rolex margin on the hyped watch,
- AD's margin on retail (hyped watch).
There are maybe 10 steel Professional models which are hot and hyped, quitting the "Limited supply" model is against the Rolex business because this is how they are moving those Cellinis, Datejusts, Airkings, bicolours etc.
