Incoming: BLNR close up

So some of you might read my thread on letting go my DJII. I did and found a good grey dealer in the city and they have 3 BLNRs all with good price. Never thought that I will picked this one up, because when BLNR was announced I always thought the blue seems like out of place. But now, I can agree that I think this is the best modern GMT out there. Anyone thinking to grab this, I can ensure you to grab this as soon as possible and don't look back. Even if you need to pay a little bit of the premium.

Another thing that I need to highlight is the grey dealer who I've dealt with. Really superb superb service from the staff and the boss lady who was there when I picked up the watch the following day. Anyone wondering the spot just PM me :)

Your pictures are astonishing!

And you are absolutely right about the BLNR. I’ve had mine for nine months now and am still struck by how beautiful and useful it is.

Congratulations!!!
