Long story short my local AD offered me a BLNR (which I wanted so badly) about a year or so ago, however I was expecting my second child and didn’t think it was the right time nor the most responsible thing to do. That was then - this is now!! He kept me on his waitlist, called me a week ago...here she is!!

Congrats - They are such a great piece in person. Hard to get pictures to do it justice.

Beauty. Congrats!

pc109 · 15 August 2018, 10:20 PM

Great piece! Enjoy! This is currently my favorite Rolex. I think the color scheme will really stand the test of time. Though I love the Pepsi, my wife always told me she disliked the colors of my departed 1675.

vazquez1085 · 15 August 2018, 10:26 PM

Thank you so much all - it’s def my fav Rolex to date. Long looking down at my wrist especially when I’m driving with the sun shining on it (you fellas know what I’m talking about lol)

Congrats! Enjoy your stunning BLNR in good health.

Seems to me there are a lot of incoming threads for BLNRs, is rolex playing catch up to hot ss sports? will we see a lot more ss BLRO and 500c 2-3 years from now?

Wilmslow · 15 August 2018, 10:49 PM

Well done! Got my Hulk in May and have been assured a Batman by my AD before end of year! Patience Patience Patience.
