Make these thread stop please. Clearly people can't nav the Rolex website to save their lives FFS if it is ever discontinued it'll be like the JC and just be updated with new movement. Full stop.

My 2cents worth, it will be changed similar to the way the Kermit was and the new movement will also be upgraded in 2019. I had the Kermit in '05 ( D series) and had to sell it in 2016, but did so for a large profit. Last month, I luckily found my "bruiser" for $8950 at a local AD and its a keeper. I think the blnr will be around but changed in 2019..

Speaking of which, I'd like to see the silly nicknames discontinued.

You have heard of the most recent Gem? They’re trying to call their SD43 ‘Vader’

Lucky I got mine yesterday then!

Let me ask...
Is the new Daytona rainbow in the catalog?
If not does that mean it's been ALREADY discontinued?

Yes there are pieces of current new BLNR stock dribbling through but once they're gone they are gone!

Don't believe me? BS?

Go find the new brochure and see for yourself! Or talk to a an AD about ordering one.

That’s fake then take it back.

They stopped making them after lunch last Tuesday !!

What’s this about an SD43 being called a Vader lol....where has that come from.

Is it because there is a dearth of these watches

See what I did there .....puffs chest out and awaits applause

Doesn’t anyone else think that given the fact that the Batman contains the old movement that it is likely to be discontinued?

I didn’t know they made a Batman. Now the 116710 BLNR is a beautiful watch. As it makes zero sense for a company to quit producing popular and sought after products, I’ll continue to believe the BLNR will be available for some time in both its current form and a newer model featuring the newer movement.

He’d wear Batman’s watch after he removed it from Bruce Wayne’s severed arm that he just beat him to death with. Yeah sure, Batman killed Superman. So glad I didn’t waste any money seeing it. I wasted an hour and a half watching it for free during one of my commutes.

Maybe we can be rid of the inane nickname when it’s reborn with the new movement. We can call it “the Phoenix.”

B.B.B. · 20 May 2018, 06:31 AM

Actually i really don’t care if it is available or discontinued. Never liked it anyway. Not for me.

Bigblu10 · 20 May 2018, 06:49 AM

Just another click bait fake news thread. I was really hoping this hogwash would end shortly after the Basel show.

From now on, we're going to walk into ADs asking about stock and future supply issues and they will say 'Well my good friends and long time contributors on TRF said...........'
