you ain't lie!Either the hardest or 2nd hardest (blue skydweller being the other) to get id say
Not hard to get if you're willing to pay over MSRP or buy a platinum DD. I bet the white dial Daytona will magically appear in the next shipment or the AD will say the customer couldn't pick it up and now you can have this one sitting in the safe if you buy a platinum DD.Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'm looking for a white-dial Daytona, which I'm guessing is scarcer than hen's teeth.
In 2014 I purchased my white dial SS Daytona. I don't think the ceramic had come out yet. I just walked into the AD, CD Peacock in this case, and said I was interested in buying one. At the time I was not aware of the wait lists or all of the hullabaloo around this particular timepiece. I just had always liked it and was ready to buy one.
I think I may have posted about this before, but what ensued was one of the most bizarre purchasing experiences I've ever been subjected to. The SA said they didn't have one. Then she had me wait, went back and forth with to the back and into the managers office. Came back and said she might have one, but wasn't sure. She had to check the vault. A few more trips back and forth into the managers office. Finally came out with it. I bought it and wrote them off. I'll not do business with them again. Not even a ******* follow up.
Moving forward, I'll use Wempe. They may not be local to me but I don't buy watches all the time. They were gracious, helpful, friendly and very professional. Excellent post sale follow up.

re CD Peacock: But...they...sold you the watch...the very, very, very hard to get watch. I'm not sure I follow your anger about that transaction...? The SA wasn't sure if she had one [at all...or available to sell, etc?]? Ok, but then she sold you the watch?
they were pricks. By the way, that’s what store do....sell ****. Unlike some, I don’t consider it a “favor” that someone sells me something. I didn’t need the kabuki theater.
Haha...I just don't get it..
What were you expecting? What could they have done differently?

Relationships help.Have any of you purchased a SS sports Rolex from an AD since Coronavirus started? If so, did you have a pre-existing relationship with the AD? Just trying to gauge what effect, if any, Coronavirus has had on the market.
