Hello,

Happy to join you !

My first Rolex, less than 24h on my wrist.
My wife bought it yesterday in Paris, incredible opportunity as it's difficult to get one, good timing at the right place.
But she was so scared traveling back to Lyon, alone, subway, train.... with the bags...



I'm so happy.
I can't thank enough my wife

The BLNR Gmt Owners' Club.

Congrats
Now I have it, I am literally under the spell...
I was not sure to get a brand new one on time (beginning of April) as my choice was 100% sure only mid January....
Geneva is not so far and you could have one in less than 2 month, but with VAT it's 1k€ more than in France where it's so hard to find it in AD store (6 month if they don't say no...).

Enjoy ! We are lucky guys !

My flight out of LAX got delayed a few hours yesterday, so decided to kill some time in nearby Manhattan Beach with my BLNR in tow.

Does anyone own a Sub LN and a BLNR? Are these too similar in a two watch "collection"? Any pictures?

Don't worry. A dash of blue hue on the bezel insert in a visible condition makes BLNR very distinguishable from GMT LN, which is indeed much more similar to Sub LN.

1st rolex

Here is a shot of my BLNR, first real watch purchase I've made. Find myself loving it more and more as time goes by! Been a month so far.

BLNR was kind of a grail piece for me. I have been looking at them for a long time. Only took being a memeber on this site for a couple months before I decided to go for it.
