Went to my local AD and I had a chance to try on the new BLRO and couple other time pieces. The AD gave me a great deal but BLRO didn't sing to me at the moment, I guess I didn't have enough enabling pics yet, so I passed on the offer. Maybe next time. Mean while here's some pics. Enjoy.

How much off ? If you don't mind me asking. In the market

tkerrmd · 21 November 2014, 08:08 AM

Well Young looks great on ya!! But gotta admit If I just pulled the trigger on two platinum watches I would be in no rush to get anything else!!

HERITAGE82 · 21 November 2014, 08:15 AM

Man those are some heavy hitters on that table...

Racerdj · 21 November 2014, 08:21 AM

Due to your new 2014 heavy metal collection, I think I can understand passing on it.

They offer me 10% off the retail which isn't bad at all.

APRolex · 21 November 2014, 08:24 AM

Thank you ! Might get in touch with takuya he's got a pre loved one for sale.

Yeah, you got the PT Frank Muller, PT FP Journe and sealed WG PP. Definitely some heavy hitters.

00pumpkin · 21 November 2014, 08:29 AM

Wow, they have some nice pieces at that dealer. I still haven't tried on the new WG Pepsi but would love to put mine beside it for comparisons.

Thanks, your RG SkyD looks stunning and I must admit, I was little tempted by the SkyD.

Thanks for the insight.

Rashid.bk · 21 November 2014, 08:53 AM

Nice pics, surprisingly I find the Patek to be the stand out. The Skydweller draws attention playing third string in that picture, handsome watch.

AK797 · 21 November 2014, 08:56 AM

I feel you Young, I am looking more towards the YG GMTc.

Davey11 · 21 November 2014, 09:05 AM

That PP is a beaut!!! Mmmm

Im Lauf der Zeit · 21 November 2014, 09:30 AM

Try vintage Pepsi.

T01 · 21 November 2014, 09:41 AM

Great pics Young! Awesome Daytona!!!!

kilyung · 22 November 2014, 01:13 AM

Ditto. I'd probably get a Platona next... If I could pull myself away from Pateks at the moment.

Rickn · 22 November 2014, 01:51 AM

I think it is a good call. I just am not into that watch at all. It looks good, but the yg version looks a million times better and is cheaper.

The Submariner · 22 November 2014, 01:57 AM

Its pretty but the blue looks too much like purple to me in person. Unless that was the goal?

Is it supposed to be purple?

SWISSAHOLICS · 22 November 2014, 02:04 AM

Same here....tried it on but did not sing to me as well.

YG GMTc is a keeper, I almost traded towards BLRO. Glad I didn't

Totally agree with that call.

travisb · 22 November 2014, 04:48 AM

That 5396 is pretty.

T. Ferguson · 22 November 2014, 05:15 AM

Finally got to see the BLRO on the flesh at my local AD. Stunning in person. Easy for me to pass on it though, just not willing to spend that much money on a wristwatch...yet.

regnant · 23 November 2014, 12:05 AM

Great watches right there, the SKY DWELLER is just the most favorable for me

rolex_DateJust · 23 November 2014, 12:34 AM

Great pics. The pepC isn't for everyone. Especially at that price lol but I wouldn't mind owning one in the future
