Walked in and saw a Bluesy for sale!

Walked into my local AD to get my watch sized….browsed around and saw a bluesy in the showcase. I asked if it was for sale and then paid for it! Easy as that.

Funny that I have been looking for one for the last few months as a trade for my Batman. Must have been my lucky day…

The blue dial is amazing.

Congrats! Let’s see some pictures. You wanted to trade your GMT for the Blusey?

What was the thinking behind that?

There are two options, upload an image from your device. It must meet size requirements. Or you can use a hosting site like Flickr. Click the image icon and past the URL from the image into the field.

After the market conditions of the previous several years, it sounds incredible you walked in and bought one. Just goes to show you, wait a bit and things change!!
