Persistence (and a little luck) finally paid off

My local Rolex AD emailed me Saturday that they had a Sub that wasn’t claimed if I wanted it, and I haven’t bought a Rolex from them. I guess some dealers don’t have “lists” that go by how much you spend etc

Congrats on the Sub, but that Gold Daytona is hard to find lately. You've struck gold on that one for sure.

Hahaha you were able to purchase the Sub since you miracle-ly stopped by. Congrats!

Here she is... I was able to get this right before the demand went nuts. Now they're not sure they'll get another one for years.

I was on "the list" for a steel Submariner after buying a gold Daytona (yes, I caved!) and since I was meeting a friend for dinner very close to my Rolex boutique, I swung in to say hello. Someone higher up on "the list" (hint: there's no list) had just decided not to purchase the Submariner he had been offered, so by a minor miracle I walked out of the store with this beauty on my wrist. Only a 3 month wait after purchasing the Daytona, so not bad by Rolex standards 😀. I owned a 14060M a few years ago, but it never really did it for me. The modern Submariner bracelet is just so darn good!

I actually prefer the no-date to the date. Look great - Congrats getting to the bottom of the rabbit hole.

Best,
