So last year I went "on the list" for a Sea Dweller 43 or a Sub No Date, the Sea Dweller arrived in 2-3 months after I bought an Omega Seamaster and some other stuff - maybe $10-12k in total.  I then went "on the list" for a camera ~$7k that my AD also sells (a Leica).  That arrived and I went "on the list" for a GMT, but the AD said basically that I would never get one - that people with $250k purchase history weren't getting them. Recently they sent a message: "hey, you're on the list for a no date still, you still want that?"  I said "yes, 100% want it, but a GMT would be great."  No response.  Paid a visit and checked in, nada so far.

Did I play this wrong?

Well, yeah. You bought into the manufactured scarcity paradox.
