All BLNRs Sold In Classifieds Guys !!!

Might be true might be false. Fact of the matter is all the BLNRs in the classifieds are marked as SOLD today.

That says something that the classified section selection is starting to get as bad as the ADs.

18 new ones in UK for sale on Chrono24. They seem to be clustered around the £10K mark.

+1 as well. Watches are not investment, you got to enjoy it. The same trend is also with cars, Porshe in particular. 5+ yrs old Porshe GT3/GT2 etc with less than 5k miles. I don’t personally get it myself. But I love it when I’m shopping for second hand, it is basically a brand new car or brand new watch for cheap

Meh. I'm glad my interest in this is purely academic. That way I can just sit back and marvel at all the Chicken Little antics.

I checked the first two pages in the classifieds here and they were all sold today. Of course it is view at one point in time. It just seems odd that today was a busy blnr buy sell day. I hope you can see that as well. BTW, I DO NOT own one and have no horse on the race.

Sorry friend but low mileage GT2/3 are never cheap even if it’s a few years old. But I get what you’re saying. Maybe I can score a low mileage 991.2S for cheap next year when the 992 on the roads.

You are right; I meant cheap by comparison to brand new. Unless you have a relationship with a dealer you are in for $25k+ premium over MSRP.
I Watched the 992 release/show on YouTube. The car looks nice but I could see how some will hate it. Fake exhaust ! Not sure how Porshe came up with that . good luck next year; GTS might be a good pick as well

I was in the AD I bought mine from 3 years ago and they offered me $3000 over what I paid for it. I have no interest in selling it. I wear mine every day.

I would never get caught up in the frenzy of any reference to pay over msrp. Two months ago my AD asked me if l wanted a Blnr after inquiring about an Ln. I did purchase and love it but l would have been just as happy with the Ln as I believe it to be the sleeper of the whole bunch and one of the best buys out there of all.

I really hope they just release a 126710BLNR just to spoil it for the people thinking they can hoard these to make a quick buck.

Bobs has one , Nashville watch has one. eBay has some as well still from sellers that have sold a bunch on eBay with good feedback reports. I can't wait until we see one that is priced stupid expensive so we can stArt a thread about that. all this over an instagram post, this just shows how powerful instagram is becoming.

You know what would be really funny if actually all this was false news.

If you were one of those suckers that purchased purely on speculation of that and it eventuated to nothing. Hahahaha that would be quite a lesson to learn about Rolex and speculation.
