      I don't get it either.

      Rolex produce on the order of a million watches a year. So why are some pieces so unobtainable?

      supply v demand… 😛

                      Tourbillion by Artya. This was one of the first if not the first tourbillion that he made. Lots of fun to wear as it has this scruffy steam punk look about it. Watches for me are about getting fun out of wearing them.

                        @Tempvs I'm surprised that @Giles hasn't stolen that Fifty Fathoms off you yet. 🙂

                        Nice collection, as usual.

                            I've put it down to controlled releases to stop a flood on the market. There's likely tons of stock. Every airport I've been to recently has had 1 on display ready to go. Another local authorized dealer thinks he can have 1 in sydney in 2 weeks. Maybe it's just marketing after all 🙂

                                you're not wrong in saying that. i can see that happening as they are the sort of company to not just push millions of products out on to the market and risk having too many out there.

                                          went into the rolex store today to ask about a GMT Master 2 (and just try one on). The wait time for all models? 12 months! And they get 1 in stock each month. The first person to pay gets it. They give you 10 minutes from time of call to pay before calling the next in line. Ruthless!

                                          Not the GMT Master 2 but still relevant…
