Great experience at AD today
My wife loves the chocolate Daytona, so I threw that on the wrist and snapped a pic- it's awesome. We were at Precision Watches in Willow Grove, and the salesman Ryan was really nice. They also had the BLNR on display, alongside a Z-Blue Milguass. I was really surprised to see they had the GMT, as it seems the Big T never puts one out, it's always "on hold for someone, in the safe."

I was actually going to head over there today! I tried on the rose gold at KOP on Friday-amazing piece.
What did you think of the blnr? Any thoughts in comparison to your white daytona? |

I saw a BLNR at Tourneau as well. I was so shocked that I almost bought it!

Love the watch, would buy it in a heartbeat if it came with an oysterflex. screw readability, the chocolate dial and ceramic bezel look great

That dial always looks amazing and shines in the ADs but you have to see it away from there to really know if it is for you.

That is one of my favorite watches. And, T is one of the worst ADs, IMHO.

The Daytona really is my perfect piece, as the overall size and fit is juuust right for my wrist. If I were to ever take the Daytona off for another steel model, it'd go into rotation with the BLNR. It's an awesome watch, and flipping through the jump-hour hand felt really snappy, the bezel turn is very sharp, and the colors are awesome in person. It's a bad ass watch, and I would love ot own one down the road. I'm holding out for a Day Date for my next watch - maybe 20 years from now
