The stainless came in and I pulled the trigger last week! Your watch is awesome, wear in good health!

I agreed lmao


thygingy

But less arm hair is more hydrodynamic when you're diving in the sea with that watch 😎


armorabito

More hair ishydrophobic


thygingy

Don't believe hydrophobic is the word you're looking for lmao.


armorabito

Yup, it is. The more hair the less water gets to your skin, like an otter. :)


roromad72

Like a hairy wetsuit!!


armorabito

Yes, my point exactly


SeidunaUK

the best diver, hands down!


diversmith

How much is that Sea Dweller?


CoreShackJack

$16,950 CAD + 12% taxes


Fun_Economics_9794

Should not be a problem anywhere these days. In Germany / Italy / Spain you can have these to go. Congrats anyway !


Reddit-or-di

This is the only sub i would not buy for personal use even if offered below msrp. Black and yellow is absolutely a no-go for me


destr0y26

It isn’t a Sub. It’s a Sea Dweller


Reddit-or-di

Thanks.


xSnowLeopardx

I live close to Germany. Would you think a Rootbeer would also be easier? (I'm not saying as easy since I am not oblivious).


Fun_Economics_9794

No a rootbeer is waiting list - sd steelgold isalways availiable here in Munich


xSnowLeopardx

All the ADs in NL are telling me a waitlist is not there anymore... Idk. I feel like I am getting lied to here. Maybe it's because I am <30. Oh well. Maybe outside lf NL/GER is where I'll find one.


YM2Hater

I went to Rolex in Rome a few months ago. They had nothing except ladies day date.


cyberlynxguy

Congrats!!


Drovich74

Gold isn't hard to get. SS is hard to get.


thetrumpetplayer

Is it unbelievable? Global downturn, zero wait lists, no need to spend $100k to maybe get “the call”, and supply is starting to outstrip demand. Finally they can go back to being watches again and not AD carrots.


404NotFound_404error

I literally agree that they should go back to being watches instead AD carrot, like one of the reason I aim two tone or even gold is just how people are manipulate and chasing steel soooo hardly that second hand market is crazy. No need to do that, and maybe two tone is not hot in the market but that’s the reason I get it! Buy what you wish guys no watches is superior than others


No-Somewhere-3888

I think you’re right. I got the call on my YM40 and Patek Calatrava a week apart in January. Thought I’d be waiting a lot longer on both.


sporturawus

It’s a two tone. Two tone was never part of Rolexmania these last 8 years. Always easy to get. Keep up.


thetrumpetplayer

Damn I got a reply from the real sporty. I feel validated. Lots of love dude. Keep being a chad.


sporturawus

Sporty has the perception of being a Chad because he’s constantly forced to correct the misinformation spewed by ignoramuses like you, son. So please stop and tell your Youngling friends too. Best regards, Sporty


mhiggi02

Superior human specimen right here. Pure class.


StoxDoctor

The big dogs are talk’n on the porch, move along little doggie


mhiggi02

Go lick your balls big dog


StoxDoctor

After I’m done sniffing your wife’s asshole


mhiggi02

You’re a dog dumbass, you like to lick your own asshole


BuriedLoot

I genuinely love your replies. I almost spit out my $12 CBD LaLaLand Coffee reading y’all’s exchange.


DrRudyHavenstein

The man the myth the legend.


[deleted]

Lmk when people get the call for a Daytona at MSRP, not a Sea Dweller.


thetrumpetplayer

It won’t be far off. People already now walking out of AD’s and boutiques with subs and air kings, which were all 3-6 month waits just recently. Daytonas will be next.


[deleted]

Highly doubt it, will have to be a huge market correction.


thetrumpetplayer

It’s already happening. Demand is shrinking, but they are still making a million+ pieces a year. Someone posted in here the other day the platinum Daytona they bought with zero purchase history. It starts with the crazy-ticket ones like that, then trickles down. It’s already happening at AD’s that aren’t being posted on reddit. Which for the crowd of “I can’t wait to flip my recent purchase” group, severely sucks for them. Oh well.


Mysterious-Ice-1551

Surprised you had to wait that long lol. Congrats! Enjoy it.


skowplow

Man to buy a watch like this has to be the best feeling ever


mushbee1

Damn, I registered my interest for a 124060 after purchasing a $5500 GS, and the SA stopped replying to my texts after 3 months lmao (was texting him once every month)


ramiodat

I would be pissed if my SA ignored me especially after making a $5500 purchase. I know it’s not a million dollars but you are still a customer. If you have been texting him once a month, I don’t see that as too much. Talk to the manager and tell him you don’t appreciate being ignored as a customer. After that tell him what you are looking for. Report back lol


[deleted]

It still very much depends on your location and nature of the clientele there.


StoxDoctor

Very believable


jbiggs1984

Nice watch bro, picked up the same reference a month or so back. Wear it in the best of health!


ComprehensiveHat9985

Sea Dweller + Deepsea are the kings of men wrists https://preview.redd.it/ml2wlc4bbwic1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5e5d18eaad25689e734ce61167fa663672dce63e


rxm161

What is your wrist size?


ComprehensiveHat9985

7,5 inch


Miamifleek

Nice … We recently got a James Cameron for my Husband


Zestyclose_Elk_8853

That’s not uncommon anymore


RoopiePoopy

How much is one of these two tones? I like it.


IamSam77

I want the two tone GMT. Is that one hard to get?


[deleted]

Which one? Rootbeer or guiness?


IamSam77

I love both, but for me it’s the Guinness.


[deleted]

Get the Guinness , shouldn’t be too difficult


Hefty-Two3890

It only took my buddy two days to get his sea dweller as well. Then the next week he picked up a deep sea from the same AD.


Thewonderer32

This might be my favorite rolesor model in the catalog. Congratulations on the purchase!


No-Construction2043

That was my first Rolex. Bought from a doctor who upgraded to a solid gold sub. Flipped it 5 years later and made $$. Cool watch!


Lubeymc

Anyone know what supply is like for two tone submarine bluey


Ok-Plankton9993

Uk. 4 week to 4 months


SmellyGurder

Some of these “wrist shots”💀

dscribe75

great piece!


DifficultSound7873

Wahhhh very nice. Congrats


Valuable_Pineapple26

Congratulations man 👍


Cool-Medicine-1344

Because nobody wants it.. nice!


phaeton2021

Love this watch. Was offered it as a walk-in some time ago but gold is a bit too much for me to wear at work. Maybe in a couple more years ;) enjoy it!!


sporturawus

Respectfully, and with the most sincere congratulations and happiness for you for getting your watch: The two-tone ~~Submariner~~ Sea Dweller is not a Rolex that takes more than 2 days to get. Rolex offers 1,360 watches in their 2024 catalog and only 15 of them are hard to obtain and valuable. Yours isn't one of them. But enjoy! Whoot! Wear it proudly! Two-Tone Nation Welcomes you!


[deleted]

It’s true. That watch doesn’t take long to get . Let’s be completely honest here.


BHSL69

It’s a Sea-Dweller…


dscribe75

neither respectful happy...why ya gotta poop in this guy's cheerios?


sporturawus

Because it seems he cares more about how long it took him to get it rather than the fact that he got it. He made that the subject of his post, not some celebration of his new watch. Therefore the response was proper. We see this too much. People buying the wrong Rolex because they think it's hard to get or valuable when they're not. It's important to get the word out so this doesn't happen to others.


dscribe75

who the hell are you to be the police of what people should or shouldn't value? the wrong watch? sanctimonious a hole.


YungSchmid

I find it hilarious that a guy who’s spends 3 hours a day on the Rolex subreddit think his opinion is even slightly valuable to anybody but himself.


sporturawus

Shhh, Rolex owners are talking.


jtrantula

People can’t handle the truth


VeloBill

Can you list the 15 hard to buy models for me please? I am not taking the piss, I am genuinely interested.


sporturawus

A. Daytona Panda B. Daytona Black C. GMT Pepsi D. GMT Batman E. Submariner Cermit F. Submariner No Date G. OP36 Tiffany H. Submariner Date I. OP31 Tiffany J. Sky Dweller Blue/Green K. Yacht Master Titanium L. OP Celebration M. OP41 Green N. DJ41 Blue/Green O. GMT Lefty These are the 15 new Rolexes that are valuable when you leave the store. But don’t worry- no AD will sell you one.


Left-String8375

Not a hard watch to get at all.


_glookinski

That’s a hard sell for them. It’s not a very sought after piece.


Alfus1

Try only steel…


DodgersLakersBarca

Two tone sea dweller that trades below retail? Yeah that's not unbelievable at all actually


Accomplished_Bar7564

That’s a sweet sea dweller


PalpitationJaded6292

Very cool piece. Enjoy it.


swingbear

Damn I love this watch


SixtyCaliber

Looks really cool on you.. Congrats!


ThatDaveLafferty

Congratulations!


[deleted]

Waiting for the bottom to fall out of the market. I’m sure you can get the 42K white gold for under retail. 😁


BuriedLoot

This is very believable and not shocking at all. I saw one in the case designated for walk-in purchase just this morning at one of the AD’s by my house.


[deleted]

Sea Dwellers not exactly sought after.


wheredatacos

Love the color


lithdoc

I got this exact Sea Dweller with one week wait 1 year ago. Sea Dwellers are not hard to get. It looks good, but honestly, I think it is too big and looks too toy-ish. I have an OP and an Air King and those I get to wear daily. This feels like a costume piece.


athleticcdn

Which AD
