Anyway - I'm toying with the idea of selling my GMT and putting the funds towards the blue dial date only and having that as a daily on the rubber to compliment my ROC. How does a VCO go as a daily in terms of scratches, robustness etc?
The Overseas is designed to be a daily wearer; so no issues with robustness but probably less than a Rolex. Of course, it is still an expensive watch. I would be treating it nicely. It is not a scratch magnet.

As for price, once you factor in GST etc from getting one overseas (pun intended), the blue dial is, at best, only $1000-$2000 cheaper than getting it from the boutique. Though none of the lowest prices have it in stock. Just a generic photo:
