re: TGIF Watch thread

To add to that don't just make friends with the closest large dealer branch out and hit smaller dealers in the area too. When you "make friends" with a salesperson follow up with them. Not every week but every 4-6 weeks just make a phone call and remind them you are interested. It is also good to drop by when you are in the area, in the initial meet ask what days they work and try to catch them when they are working. If you drop buy and they aren't there have a business card you can leave with something like:

" Hi Nancy, I dropped by and you weren't working but you wanted to touch base and reiterate my interest in a Rolex 116600. I appreciate you keeping me in mind.

If you work it long enough you will get lucky especially if you are willing to take several models. If you are willing to buy a GMTII, Daytona, or EXPII your chances go up compared to just being willing to take a Daytona.

If you get desperate you can always drop back punt and buy an unworn version on the secondary market. I don't recommend it but it is nevertheless an option.
