BLNR after 3 Months
As of today I have had my BLNR for 3 months. It has been on my wrist every day since I got it. I wear it to bed, in the shower, swimming and even went scuba diving in about 15' of water while in the Dominican Republic. I have even used the GMT function. The PCL's are showing some marks but I don't care. The watch is comfortable, durable and looks great. The truth is, if I could only have one watch, this would be it.
I read on here about an app called Watchtracker and I started tracking the watches performance on Dec. 17th. I've been really impressed by the accuracy. I hacked the watch yesterday for the first time since the day I got it. It was 45 seconds fast. I'm sure you guys won't believe this but, I have no urge to get another watch.....  Here's some screen shots of the Watchtracker app.

It's a gorgeous watch, which I'd love to own. Maybe one day...
As for it being the only watch you want to own... all in good time, my friend, all in good time

I have had my BLNR for more than 20 months, and it has occupied almost all my wrist time since I bought it.

i have mine on super jubilee - it rarely gets wrist time but that's because i have others.
i'd like to suggest you look at Everest and use your clasp. Blue or Black, depending on how you feel. not to be a show off but if you go color on color it's hot. |
