So far 5 ADS

I saw one in St Lucia and asked if I could buy it and was told I would have to spend a further 4000.00 dollars on top of retail to secure it.
I reported it to Rolex and was sent a key ring as an apology.

Listen, I don’t know the OP, maybe he needs to see a therapist or priest about a watch, which would obviously be ridiculous, but more likely than not he’s trying to go to the one place it’s ok to vent and say things like he feels gutted without being judged.

Thanks man I don’t get stressed about it offline you are right it’s just a vent. It’s basically a vent about ADs being particular about who they sell to and those people then putting it on eBay!!!

The thing you’ll come to realize is that the BLNR is even better than you’re imagining: Rest assured the bank vault mine is sitting in is quite a happy safe indeed!

Had one for almost four years. It's a great watch at 8k. When I bought mine, gray market dealers were selling them below MSRP. Just wait until all this nonsense is over and the price level normalizes. Don't pay over retail unless you have money burning a hole in your pocket.
Wait until we're in the next business cycle if you can't get one at retail

You’re right. I shouldn’t take it out of context. But I see so many posts here about losing sleep, shaking with excitement on the verge of tears, thanking Jesus for getting the call, and it’s a bit much. But you’re right, this is TRF and I should allow myself to get caught in the moment.

Are you saying that women are more emotional than men?

For most of us, I suppose it's more realistic to go for a sub, no date.

I'd rather have a date with Hilary Clinton before I bought another BLNR.

BNLR and WG BLRO being “discontinued” ...... is this not simply a case of impending relaunches with the new 3285 movement

It’s a great watch for sure, I’m on lists for them, but that bracelet is something I certainly do not like. The polished links pick up scratches and they are very visible. My favorite is the brushed submariner with the glide lock. With that bracelet, the blnr would be truly great

Not trying to be an ass, but a lot of this hype is about herd mentality and wanting something that is not available. As someone mentioned above, it's just a regular steel GMT with some blue.

Because it looks so bloody cool

plus its the first rolex bi-coloured bezel to have been made from ceramic, it was considered a truly difficult feat, its a first, people like groundbreaking advances in manufacturing technology.

you understand now?

if you are on lists you will never get one, the list is imaginary. You need to get on your bike with a fistfull of dollars and go knocking, you will be amazed at what all of a sudden 'has just come in today'

The pcl's look great and dont pick up scratches.
