Officially a member of the BLNR , arrived today.

Like many members here I wasn’t sure if should buy or waited for the Basel world. Glad I didn’t waited. Bought my Daytona last week because I wasn’t able to find any other sports model I wanted. Then; Last Friday, my dealer called to inform me a client didn’t go thru with the BLNR purchase and gave me the priority. I slept on it, just spent 30+k for the Daytona not sure it I can spoil my self like that.

Decided to move forward because the demand is there and I don’t want to miss the chance, watch was sent overnight but the NY snowstorm caused a day delay. Just received today! Love the blue on the bezel! I’m sure liking it.

Two sweet watches! Congrats!

I’ve never regretted buying my BLNR. It seems more useful, stunning, and beautiful every time it put it on.

Enjoy!

Congrats!!! I’m sure it will get a lot of wrist time! It’s such an awesome watch. This is arguably the best ceramic bezel they have ever made. Colors are spot on and actually represent day and night perfectly which compliments the GMT complication really well.

Very nice Daytona as well. The dial from the OF but in full WG. Looks really good.
