Incoming! Return of one I missed.

I sold my BLNR to fund my platinum Daytona but missed it too much. I now complete my GMT collection, unless a Meteorite Pepsi comes in!😂. Waiting for the return of my panda. Glad to have added this watch to my collection.

That’s a sweet collection. How long did it take to get it to that point?

Great collection. You must have a difficult choice every morning! Curious if you got both from the same AD?

Have considered adding a SkyD but the ones on my list to add are a Panda, which is due anytime and an LV. Ultimately, would love to add the Pepsi Meteorite and the new YG DD 40 with silver baton dial.

I did not get it from my AD. Apparently, the BLNR is hard to come by. My AD changed on me. I could get anything I wanted and have spent well over 200k with them but now they will only sell on sport watch per customer per year. The manager is the one that promised me the Panda and LV.

Unique but would be down the road. I have a son who is a lefty and would add it to later give it to him.

Traded my YM blue for it. I could not seem to get this reference from my AD.

Congratulations. I too made the leap this week and grabbed a Batman. Sounds like we could be dealing with the same AD in regards to the one SS sport per year. At my age and being financially blessed, I’m not getting the call, so I just look for deals on the secondary market. Oh, and that’s one hell of a collection.

I traded my GMT LN for the 116710 BLNR when it came out then traded the BLNR for the 126 on jubilee as I prefer the jubilee on a GMT. I sold the BLNR to get my platinum Daytona. Initially was promised by my AD he would get me another but they changed their business model so traded my 116622 blue dial for this one. I didn’t want to let it go but felt confident my AD would get it. When he told me it was hard to get I went in this direction.

The BLNR is one of the best imo and would be hard to part with. Congrats on remedying that issue and my favorite way on that watch with the jubilee.
