If I had any doubts...
...they've been alleviated.
Got a sneak preview from a non-AD today on two BLNRs that they've recently acquired. I was starting to worry that it wouldn't live up to my expectations - after all, I haven't actually seen one in the flesh for over 2 years. Glad to say that i was blown away and although itd a huge cliche, the pictures just dont it justice. I've stopped wearing my 43mm Tag Heuer to try and make it any easier adjustment to 40mm and I have to say it made a difference to my perception. When I first tried on a Submariner a few years ago I couldn't get past how small it felt but today I felt like the fit was perfect. I've had fears that it would be too small but they are now gone. Visited my AD today as well and I am now 4th on the list so it could be as soon as next month which would be a great start to the year. If anyone in Glasgow (or is willing to travel) then feel free to DM me and I'll point you in the direction of these two beauties. 2016 - £7,300 2017 - £7,500 unworn with stickers.

It's not a forum favorite for nothing.

Don’t worry about the size comparison. I regularly wear larger watches (Panerai, Breitling, etc..) and when I put my LVc on, it feels every bit of impressive on the wrist. The new Rolex case wears like a 42mm IMO.
