BLNR spotted in London

[theparry]

Took a look in Austin Kaye's window after work yesterday and saw they have a BNIB BLNR for £7700. A bit steep for obvious reasons but they're also throwing in a free watch finder and Rolex warranty until Dec 2021. Hopefully this will be of help to our fellow UK members!

[Shaky]

Wow, bet it won't be there long. Plenty of people with enough money not to care about a premium on the watch.

[kwingy]

Thanks for the heads up but that price is steep like you said.

Considering the one at Chisholm Hunter in Glasgow at £8.995 with no watch winder or extended warranty, this one looks a bit of a bargain

[rudestew]

Out of principle I would not buy , it's getting a bit stupid now

[Sublovin]

Crazy how hard these watches seem to be to find in UK. Wow

Saw a BNLR in on Bond Street for £8,000

That is a fantastic price seeing as there is no £0.005 coin I would even be happy if they rounded it up to £9.

Well for you sir, it's £9,000....
Debit or credit card? (And there's a 2% charge for credit card) lol

Still chuckle when I think of seeing that in their window last month.

Seems £8,995 is "steep" and they've dropped it to £8,500

Just seen one in Leeds today for £7,900! I bought mine for £5,950..........then flipped it!

Rolex.

[Snow-Dweller]

The standard Rolex guarantee has been 5 years since 2015, so that watch should be guaranteed until 2022. It's certainly not "extended".

Does AD over there sell above retail.. if it's a AD.

Did you get your £5,950 back or take a loss?
What made you flip it? I've owned virtually every modern Rolex and done plenty of flipping, however the BLNR will not be flipped. It's a staggeringly good watch.

I flipped it plus cash towards my smurf over 2 years ago. So, no is the answer I guess. I do not regret buying the smurf at all and wouldn't change anything, but I could have saved money by waiting it turns out. Especially being in the UK where they are hard to find at the moment.

It's a great watch and I loved it but wanted the Sub more. I like to think it will be replaced one day, but I spend most of my time looking at other PM models now. The new Oysterflex Daytona for one!!
