Living in a smaller town we don't have an AD nearby, but luckily we have one grey market guy in the area who runs things properly. Wait list, purchase history, the whole process. Glad I get to experience the hobby the right way.

I'm not big on buying watches online, I need to see the piece in person before pulling the trigger, so he's been my go-to. Built up a bit of history with him over the past few months, picked up some semi-new jewelry for the girlfriend and a couple Seikos as gifts for friends.

Today I got THE CALL 😭 A Datejust 16014 came in and he thought of me right away. Said since I had purchase history and clearly wasn't a reseller, he wanted to offer it to me first. Only 2 months of waiting.

White gold fluted bezel, silver dial, perfect vintage 36mm. Absolutely gorgeous in person.

Really happy with my first Rolex! 🙏
