Anybody dealt with this situation? I already have an Explorer II and DJ41. I got a 126710BLNR out of it all, but where do I go from here? Can't really see myself adding another "Walk In" piece. Open to suggestions, but grey seems like the way forward, especially with the market turning.

Sorry but I have no sympathy for anyone willing to play these AD games hopefully to get a mass produced watch.And if everyone stopped playing these so called AD games then perhaps we can get back to normal.

No need to apologize, because I wasn't looking for sympathy. I was looking for other people who had dealt with a similar situation and how they responded to inform my decision going forward. I don't come to the internet looking for sympathy.

Why build a purchase history at another AD only for it to lose Rolex? I think grey is the right answer. An arms-length transaction has a certain fairness to it. I give you money, you give me a watch and that is the end of it. No hope for a future benefit from either of us.

Agree 100% with this... when you decide to play the "game" with them then you must be prepared for all possible outcomes, including this one unfortunately....

It happens, only aa watch, not the end of the world.
Just do what makes you feel good.

Myself I am too proud to beg an AD for any watch and my self esteem is worth more than a few grand so I buy grey. Nothing but stellar experiences

This is the truth...
