When Will the Rolex Shipments Land

Like lots of people, I'm waiting for the shipments to land at AD's. This will be the barometer on several fronts, including the second hand, private owner and gray market. I'm actually hoping to pickup another watch at sticker price, so waiting on a call my from SA. Please report if / when your AD gets its first shipment.

Just heard from my AD as I am waiting for a watch for my wife. He informed me Rolex pushed back their open date to late May due to NYC stores not being open. Earliest I would see the watch is June 7-10...

Plain and simple fact know one knows on this forum or any other, only Rolex knows.And if and a big if they did release new models it would be several months before they would be available at any AD world wide.

Here on the UK, Rolex dealers have been asked to place their special orders, with delivery around the end of July/August. Got my order in with the local AD just in time.....42mm Yachtmaster. Still waiting for a yacht. A rowing boat would do.

42 Yachtmaster is my grail but out of my league, I’m trying for a SD43 so I can do the washing up.

This is what my AD said prior to last night. Looks like it was pushed out a week to 10 days

Similar here. My AD is now open but with very little left from their last shipment. They are hoping for a BIG shipment in late May but this is only if New York state allows HQ to open. I'm sure the US distributor still has stock built up before the factory shut down.

My AD said the same thing and that special orders will take priority. I ordered a DateJust for our daughter at the beginning of February.

Possibly, but US warehouse is located in New York and closed for now.

The new Rolex's and next shipments will be in stores in the UK before Christmas.

At least this is what Santa said when he replied to my letter.
