SS BLRO incoming to mark 10K posts on TRF

Mostly pics, but a few thoughts…

The watch is amazing in person so im glad from the wait from the first demo model i saw in real life to delivery of mine was only two days so the wait was not that hard.

Ive always loved the WG BLRO, but having a SS LN already, the oyster bracelet on the WG version was the one thing holding me back from a second GMT II. IMO the jubilee is the perfect bracelet for this watch and although i had never been a jubilee fan previously this watch has me converted for sure.

As for the colors, anyone who as seen or owned the WG version, this is no surprise as its the same bezel. Pics do not capture it that well but to me they are perfect and unless you are buying the watch with the intention of its social media pic value instead of real life wearing experience then the watch is a winner.

The bracelet is blingy AF, so its not an understated Rolex by any measure and it reminds me a lot of a RO bracelet with the way the light reflects off it.

Yes, i got to keep my warranty card. My AD has also been sitting on it for the past two weeks and wanted to wait until after the Rolex lunch I went to on Monday before giving it to me. They didn’t want to tell me not to wear it, but if i did they also didn’t want to upset their other customers who would be there and who had also requested it, but didn’t get it yet. So there are still good AD’s around.

Congrats, Tyler! Looks awesome. I noticed a few people on IG fitting an oyster bracelet on this Pepsi. You can tone down the bling if you want

Big congrats Tyler. It’s such a great looking watch. The big question is will the awesome 5990 pics succumb to this for the time being?

Zakalwe · 13 June 2018, 11:19 PM

Congrats mate

How’s it going to fit into the rotation of PP’s and GMT LN? It is, as you say on the blingy side so maybe not ideal for the mean streets of Central London

sager · 13 June 2018, 11:21 PM

Absolutely gorgeous. Loving the colors!

Nikrnic · 13 June 2018, 11:21 PM

Congrats!! I did get to see on in person at a reveal and it did look fabulous. .
