Now that it's been two years . . . .

Do you want to keep waiting, or get it at the gray market upcharge and start enjoying it?

(For some people, the wait is a bit of a surrogate for the acquiring. For others, not so much.)

I just walked in, struck up a great conversation about watches with the SA, and he texted me an hour later with one.

Ok, reality: it was about 9 month. I’ve bought several things from the store.

My SA: "You'll need to buy tens of thousands in jewelry before you get on the list"

Great conversation! (that's after buying tens of thousands already)

My AD told me the wait would be six months, ended up turning into a solid year. Here's a link to my Pepsi incoming, with a little arm-twisting. Good luck, hope you score yours soon, can't keep mine off my wrist!

Wait time is between now and never. I’ve been on so many lists these past 3 years none have come through. Lol

I first expressed interest in a BLRO with my AD in October of 2021. I would periodically check in with them in person from time to time just to say hello, and in August of 2022 I got the call to come pick one up. No other purchase history, no schmoozing...just a few friendly conversations over a ten-month period.

15 months after going on the list, 10 months after specifying the Oyster bracelet. There is so much variability it's essentially meaningless. Your AD sounds like they come through, so it's only a matter of time.

2 years for me. I'd already purchased a Cartier Tank for the wife, Tudor chrono and a Deepsea. Picked it up December 2021. They then offered me the white ceramic Daytona in the February after so an expensive few months. That was also a 2 year wait.
I'd say you must be towards the end of your wait. Good luck.

Just be patient, you have bought a lot of watches and you will definitely get your turn. I wait for Pepsi 11 months, earlier i bought 4 Rolexes from my AD.

A Buddy of mine got his Pepsi in 3 months with 0 spend purchase history

I created a thread about it here:
