Let me fill the blanks:
I bought about 15 watches from this AD, many brands from VC to Rolex, to IWC, Omega, Cartier, and more… I always buy what I like, sometimes popular models sometimes things that nobody but me cares to buy…
Worked with this AD almost exclusively with some exceptions they don’t carry.
Kept every single watch, including ONE Patek I bought from them that I could have sold it for profit but never did. Always kept all my watches even the ones that were an impulse buy.
This doesn’t matter I never asked them to check at my history or anything as I was going to get a prize at the end, not really my style.
Now that I can I thought about this very same model: my think simple, well I have seen it at the store 3 times or more over the last months and always there and not marked as reserved.
Asked for them ideally the J version, but I could find peace with the P version.
What I was told was simply, well you need to work for it and once you have history we will write up the application and you will be interviewed and all…
Came here with one goal: know if this is true for this model.
Answer is no. Then simply I won’t sweat about it, the dealer doesn’t want my business without playing, I pass, move on to better things
