No, it is not. Except maybe in Paris if you get lucky with a lottery appointment (very difficult to get) and then get lucky with the random SA assigned to you. Going to a reseller will be your only solution.

Editing to add- technically it is also possible in some places in Europe and the UK where clients add their name to the “wishlist” and the official company line is that they just go down the list and offer bags. However, in practice, it seems to still be reliant on a good relationship with the store (ie purchase history) and they typically only offer to add a name to the wishlist if the client is local.

There’s no harm in trying. Regardless of what I read or hear people say I’m trying anyway but that’s just my personality :lol: All they can say is yes or no!

If you are able to coast on a VIP clients coattails, or if you fall in love and purchase a limited edition H watch (H purchased part of a heritage watch company so it could say the movement is now manufactured in house), your chances may increase quite a bit.

Either way, please do update the thread, so we can either rejoice or commiserate with you :)

Yes it is. Got my B25 last year after 1 year on a waiting list without almost no purchase history. Just a belt and some perfume. But I am located in Germany. I guess things work a little differently here :smile:
