I am super excited to share this incoming. I first expressed interest in a BLRO with my AD in April of 2020. I do not have a significant purchase history with them and in fact, it’s very minimal. They only sell Rolex and Tudor at that AD. However, despite not being a big spender, my sales associate was very honest with me about the difficulties sourcing this watch, and he said he would do his best to help me obtain one in the next year.

In addition to regular follow up chats and watch talk, my wife also kept in contact with him (unbeknownst to me) and today they surprised me with this watch and I could not be happier. My wife had hoped she could get it for my 30th birthday last May, but it came in time for my 31st, which is amazing. I’m still shocked that I got this after such a relatively short time. It’s nice to know that there are still some great ADs out there that are willing to help the little guy get their desired watches!

I also had not seen one in person before, and it was even nicer than in pictures. I love how the bezel colours change depending on the lighting. Here are three pictures taken in different settings which I think showcase the different colours nicely.

Big congratulation! I am from GTA as well, and have been waiting for my pepsi since June 2019. Last month, I touched base with the AD, and was told that it will come soon. At least will be much faster than the cermit.
