Same thing for the two tone champagne dial oyster band and probably the blue dial models
we got ours in 2021, but I believe the timelines are still relevant surrounding the issues circumventing supply and demand. truth be told, it's been like this for several years according to my AD; the pandemic just made it worse.

Datejust 31mm in oystersteel
Datejust 41mm in oystersteel (Wimbledon)

Jan 14 - inquired (ordered, no deposit)
Apr 20 - received 31mm
Sep 17 - received 41mm

so the 10-month wait isn't out of the ordinary. wait times will differ between models, and even within the same model, certain configurations may take longer than others. my AD has a client who requested in Nov 2019 (forgot the model), and he just received it Nov 2021.
