My first GMT Master II …

Just collected this beauty last evening. It was love at first sight since it was launched but the courtship took a while.

So thrilled for you! Really am. This is a beauty!

I collected mine last week (on oyster) and I have been observing a few “incomings” of other BLROs over the last few days.

Hopefully the other BLRO admirers will get theirs soon too.

Thanks and congrats to you too!

I am inspired by your BLRO & BLNR pair so hopefully I can source the BLNR on oyster from my AD soon.

Fantastic and big congratulations. I really have to applaud the patience of some of our fellow TRF members. To be able to wait years for the call.

I love these shots. Really highlights how much that bezel can change under different lighting. Congrats!
