Incoming (Grail)
It’s funny how tastes change. I remember being in Vegas in 2007. I quickly dismissed the 16610LV sub in the display case, considered the 16610LN as more versatile but thought it wore too big. Walked out with a two tone 34mm ‘Date’. (Yes, that happened. Ugh.) Loved it until my wife bought me a 40mm Hamilton and then it was all over for the two tone Date. It became too small. Only Rolex I ever sold. I do regret selling it a little but I couldn’t have purchased the 116710LN at that time had I not sold it.
I do love the 5 digits. They are perfect for my smaller wrist size and (very) conservative look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Is that a 4Runner you're driving? I think we need to start a "Post a pic of your Rolex with you 4Runner/LandCruiser" thread... |

Very well done all around. Congrats on a great piece. The Kermit will always be the one that got away for me. Had one for about a year back in 2008. Sold it for what I paid, which felt good at the time. However, that’s less then 30% of today’s prices so I just don’t ever see it coming back for me
it’s a piece with a lot of charm in person

Close! It’s my Taco! Had a 4Runner prior. I swear, I drove it for three years and traded it in for only slightly less than what I paid! I hope they never change the 4Runner. I agree with your idea about a thread! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

When my AD gave me the call for the BLNR I had to take a day to think about it. And even made a post it on here for feedback lol. Long story short I couldn’t pass on it, and glad you got the watch you wanted.

Looks great!! Enjoy! I love my Kermit and am glad with my decision, but... that BLNR, in my humble opinion, is one of the best looking models of the modern era! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
