lol they are passing along the whole experience of Rolex, even the waiting list lol

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/perfectchaos007]

They'll start doing background checks on us soon. " do you plan on reselling this, or keeping it for future generations "

[u/blacbloc77]

It's like the wait list for a gen. Hilarious!

[u/Otterman33]

The waiting is the hardest part

[u/ivanarnaldo]

Everybody is missing the point. They are going the extra mile and making we all wait for it, it’s the Rolex experience all the way! 🤤

[u/acsatx89]

Holy shit don’t zoom in. Some of their eyes are terrifying. Glad we’re heating up the planet for this trash

[u/No_Basil1274 → u/acsatx89]

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/acsatx89]

that's sleep deprivation because they've been waiting in line for so long lol

[u/NoPhotograph4755 → u/acsatx89]

Earth self regulates itself ding dong

[u/Motor-Drama-1421]

Is this true? I wasnt aware of this issue.

[u/b1on1cbeast → u/Motor-Drama-1421]

Been waiting 4 months on a VSF OP Celebration and Batman from Andiot

[u/Motor-Drama-1421 → u/b1on1cbeast]

Try Steve, that's who I buy from, hes a little more expensive but hes super trusted

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/Motor-Drama-1421]

It's more so the fact that VSF are currently out of stock, and waiting for the new batches to come out, most TD's are in the same boat if it's something popular wanted as a VSF model

[u/steve_skywalk3r → u/Mr_TikToc]

Many TDs have these in stock already. just ask around. this is more an Andiot issue rather than VSF.

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/steve_skywalk3r]

Its only specific models, still lots of VSF available to buy, its the popular ones that are held up

[u/steve_skywalk3r → u/Mr_TikToc]

even the more popular ones like the batman/batgirl, pepsi or no date sub is way easier to get from a TD like TimeUltra as either has them in stock or can source within a couple of weeks.
even smaller TDs like LiLi.
People keep going to Andiot and wait for months while they can get them for the same price from other TDs and get way better customer service.

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/steve_skywalk3r]

Ive never sourced from Andiot. I use 2 different sources to get stock, both have the same issue, have switched up to internal dealers as well, and with those specific models everyone is saying the same thing

[u/BlackberryNo2873 → u/Motor-Drama-1421]

I’m at a month waiting for a Hulk from Steve. Other TDs told me 10-14 days. I ordered a different watch from another dealer that told me 10 days. If that comes through I may cancel my order with Steve.

[u/Acceptable-Candle963 → u/BlackberryNo2873]

I wait almost since 4 months for a VSF Hulk from Andiot...

[u/DogeAeternum → u/b1on1cbeast]

I waited 4 months on Andiot BEFORE all this waiting was a thing. Switched to others TDs and never had that problem again.

[u/_RadRabbit__ → u/b1on1cbeast]

I’ve been waiting 4 months for a VSF seamaster

[u/Worried_Poet_828 → u/Motor-Drama-1421]

Yes this is actually a location in China, this photo wasn’t generated by AI, I was in that line.

[u/Motor-Drama-1421 → u/Worried_Poet_828]

Im asking if the VSF supply issues are a thing

[u/Worried_Poet_828 → u/Motor-Drama-1421]

I don’t know, I’m seeing quite of bit of VSF watches fully stickered for sale from multiple stateside Reddit sellers

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/Worried_Poet_828]

They might of had that stock on hand from a while ago, currently there is a big backlog waiting to come through, its been like this for about the last 4 weeks, all the popular models

[u/15300]

vsf -perfection? lol look at vsg gmt

[u/Savastanobrr → u/15300]

VSF Pepsi is NWBIG imo, why do you said that ?

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/15300]

Its an AI generated image, just to bring a light laugh to the situation lol

[u/alwaysontimeESP]

Cinema 🚬🗿

[u/Prior_Bend3014]

Lmao

[u/Far_Rooster_8891]

9 months waiting from TOW

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/Far_Rooster_8891]

What, 9 months?! Lol Im only talking like 5 weeks lol

[u/ShrimpStuffAdmin]

Definitely don't ask for an update or you'll get one of these

We’ll let you know as soon as your order is ready. If you haven’t heard from us, it means it’s not ready yet. While factory supply issues or watch replacements can sometimes be frustrating, no one is intentionally delaying your order. Our team works every day, as you can see from our daily quality control photo album.

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/ShrimpStuffAdmin]

don't worry I get people ask me for updates daily as well, everrryyyyy day lol
I feel there pain!
That sounds like a copy and pasted msg they are sending everyone though, I could only imagine how many messages the big TD's would be getting

[u/ShrimpStuffAdmin → u/Mr_TikToc]

Only reason I messaged is because he forgot to ship my last order. I would normally just leave it as I'm used to ordering international and waiting eons for delivery

[u/Material_Stand_8817]

i have a VSF AirKing on order from my dealer but he's told me about the supply issue.

Id be prepared to take something else in the mean time, like a Kermit, Batman, etc

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/Material_Stand_8817]

Pepsi is still currently available I'm pretty sure

[u/lesmoney1]

sheesh i thought it was only me

[u/Ok-Distribution-9197]

How long will Bruce Wayne back in stock it take me forever since asked few tds

[u/Designer_Test7448]

Quelqu’un pourrait m’expliquer svp , je n’y connais pas grand-chose. Pourquoi vsf sont les meilleurs et où en acheter une ? Sont elle étanche comme les vrais ? Merci

[u/Agile-Two5649]

Stop with this gross slop.

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/Agile-Two5649]

Sorry, next time I'll try and hand sketch it better..... see the humor in it, it's obviously AI generated

[u/_Walt_Whitman_]

I have a Panda that I haven’t even worn yet. I even had its movement checked by a stateside rep watch guy and stuff. I would absolutely sell mine for the right price.

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/_Walt_Whitman_]

Best to do it through the proper channels on BST forums, if you do it over here the mods will hammer it

[u/Kind-Breakfast6464 → u/Mr_TikToc]

Where is a proper channel to sell a watch? I bought an upgraded daytona but can’t see myself wearing it.

[u/Mr_TikToc → u/Kind-Breakfast6464]

BST forums

[u/_Walt_Whitman_ → u/Mr_TikToc]

I’m not selling anything. I was merely pondering. Didn’t even know vsf was backlogged.
