It’s late 2020.

I can't blame you for wanting to pull the trigger and pick one up from Grey.

I did the same, I've been on the list for a BLRO since release and the last 18mths I've been doing the obligatory 'relationship building' picking up some pieces I didn't really want but they were offered - Batgirl, Rootbeer, DJs... all of which were lovely - but ultimately didn't resonate with me.
In my head, I'm still anticipating a BLRO this year so I will invariably put the one I picked up recently back into the Grey market.... and keep the one I finally get allocated.

This way I get to enjoy the watch, not be constantly wondering when I'm going to get 'the' call. In the long run for the sake of losing a little when selling back to a Grey, then so be it. And not that I'm a flipper at all, but I've moved on a couple of the aforementioned which will cover any cost to change on the BLRO.

On a side note... literally within a week of getting the SS BLRO, I then came across a 126719BLRO Meteorite deal I couldn't miss at only a fraction over RRP - So I'm out of the steel BLRO and into WG Meteorite - Now this is a watch that will never leave my collection WOW

Congrats man. What year is this one? MK3 bezel right?

I'm about to buy one of these I think but I only want the darker MK3 bezels. I dont like the first iterations of the pink/purple ones.

Sorry just read its late 2020. This should be MK3 then. Kind of still looks purpleish in some lighting?

Don’t believe the photos, it looks rather different after a camera has interpreted it. It’s dark but still quite pastel’y, but then it really brightens up in the sunlight.

The "pink and purple" only seems to show up in photos, at least from my experience. The colours are very nice in person.

Yeah. Really great bunch of guys. Sensible selling prices that are either the same or lower than the cheapest price you will find online and they have always given me a better price on trade-ins than I could get selling myself.
