Retail? Then yes. Grey, plenty around if you got the cash..

What color are you looking into?

Almost every Rolex is difficult to obtain right now.

Depends on dial color but generally yes. Inquired with my AD this weekend and she said there is now an influx people waiting for Green because of the other dials being discontinued.

Yes, they are difficult to obtain at retail without a wait.

Yes, when recently getting a DJ from the AD he mentioned OPs are much harder to obtain than a DJ

I think anything larger than 39 mm is difficult to obtain. Pretty much the only stuff that is "easy" to get would be the lady watches. It's a good time to be the girlfriend of a Rolex enthusiast these days...

And the grey dealers aren’t flush with OP41’s (or any Rolex for that matter) simply from individual flippers.

Very easy to get. I got laughed at by an AD last year asking for a 41 Coral Red and laughed back by having the watch on my wrist less than 24 hours later.
You just have to pay the piper.

Hard flex?? Or dumb decision? I did the same exact thing and didn’t look back once. Would do it again!

Yeah I'd basically agree with that. If you plan on keeping it for a lifetime, I'm pretty sure no matter what you income bracket is, 50 years from now, you won't care whether you paid $6,000.00 or $16,000.00.

If my AD does not get me one then I will wait till they drop (and they will trust me). Do not care on the dial color as long as it is not the silver dial.
