2021 BLRO on Oyster @DavidSW
DavidSW has the new 2021 BLRO on Oyster. $28K WTH!!
Power to those ppl with the funds and the desire to be among the first. I'm envious...Personally I can't justify spending 29K on a brand new watch with an MSRP of 10K. I'm still waiting for mine...and probably will forever be waiting if this continues |

I saw a 2021 BLNR-Oyster pop up on IG within the last couple of days, so apparently they are slowly making their way into the wild.
On Sunday my AD said he was expecting the new releases mid-late June... hoping he can get me one earlier but (thankfully) I'm in no rush. |

That’s really crazy pricing, but for some people $30k is pocket money so someone will bite

Jeez.
Can’t you buy a oyster bracelet for around 2k? Sounds like the way I’d go if I were a BLNR or BLRO owner but I’m not. Never have. Not a fan of multiple color bezels.

Considering the market hasn't been set for these yet, I'd imagine we'll see all sorts of crazy prices thrown out there to start.

I was able to pick up the 78200 bracelet from AD last week, just haven't gotten around to placing it on the BLRO. Looks exactly the same.
A lot of people have a lot of disposable income so to them, $28k is peanuts.

In your heart you will know it’s not the same though.

It fits perfect no gaps, etc. just have to use the BLRO spring bars. It'll be a bit tough to order one, just have to find an AD to order it for you. I'll shoot you a PM.

Never even noticed this but I'm guessing it's how I took the picture but I'll have it looked at.

The 2021 GMT Oyster bracelet I think has a different model reference. However, I'm intrigued to see what the difference is between it and your 78200.

Yes, the newer reference is 79200. It most likely has slight changes, I'm guessing the spring bar shaft width within the endlink, the 116710 reference uses thicker spring bars but placing the 126710 spring bars through the 78200 there was no give/wobble or extra room. So really not sure what the other differences might be.

Humm. Might as well buy the unworn BLRO on jubilee he has for $24k and just buy the oyster bracelet separately. Both bracelets and still less expensive.
