Getting the BLRO at MSRP is the hard/impossible part. I'm sure it will be a lot easier getting the CHNR at this moment.

... everyone is walking into Rolex or phoning up their ADs and pressuring them for the BLRO or DaytonaC. I don't think most are going anywhere with this ask... unless they are willing to write a blank cheque for the other stuff the AD has in store.
Does it ever occur to anyone to actually choose which watch they like the look of best - or is it just about wanting the one that’s hardest to get?

I have the BLRO on the jubilee band ! I am very satisfied with my selection , but I think the blue color is too dark , unless you are in the sunshine! Just my opinion.

CHNR has a unique look. it's growing on me more and more. My AD has one and offered to me. I'm debating on pulling the trigger.

Both are great looking watches that wear differently.

BUT

The CHNR doesn't (in my eyes) photograph well, in the flesh it is gorgeous!

Decision: get both.

Not sure how long that relationship with last selling watches that were just purchased?

This is why I don’t mind AD’s vetting buyer. I understand people can tire of a watch or change their mind but it’s def a unicorn situation to tire of a blue skyd and blk Daytona right after purchase.
