Let’s take one of the most sought after watches. A daytona. My salesperson gets 2 a year. There are 6 salespeople. That’s means 12 Daytonas a year. How many come in asking for a Daytona? A couple thousand people a year. How would you go about deciding who gets one?

Unfortunately I’m not, I’m in Houston which also a very difficult market to get a Rolex in. 

Back in 2020, I got the call for a Pepsi on my bday. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic by business was suffering and I did not feel it was a good time to spend the money. I told my AD this, he was very understanding and, I was pretty beat up about it. I didn’t think I would get another shot.

Fast forward about 8 months later, business returned back to normal for me, I asked if I could be put back in  consideration June of 2021, I got the call 3 days before Christmas.

June of 2022, I asked if I could get a Kermit. I’m picking it up tomorrow. 
 

I will say, after the Pepsi, I did buy my AD a bottle of my favorite bourbon. I wasn’t necessary to do, but I felt it was a nice gester for him being kind to me.

I would probably try and find a different AD. You just need to connect with one who really likes you and is willing to go to bat for you. It took me 6 months from the time I asked to get my pepsi. My watch history was 2 watches as well.
