Rolex GMT LN at retail
Is it possible to get a new GMT LN at an AD these days at retail prices? Willing to be put on a waiting list or travel to buy it...Thank you

Unlikely. The model is not in production and it’s pretty popular. I doubt there are any that have been sitting around this long, and I don’t think Rolex ships models that are officially discontinued...

Why discontinue a great watch like that? I assume its still a good buy used (2015-2018) around $10K?

Yes if you are lucky. I waited nearly a year. The Rolex Sydney Boutique called me last Tuesday and this was acquired. Best watch I’ve ever owned. |

As most have said already, it’s discontinued but I understand that certain ADs are due to get a small amount (probably Rolex clearing out their stock)...well that’s what I hope as I’ve been promised one!

I've just had a call from my AD offering me the new BLNR Batman. Picking it up Wednesday. I was on the list for the Pepsi since last year. That hasn't arrived so they offered me this instead. Happy days. Seems there is a slow trickle of these watches in the UK. This is the first blue one they have had and they are only expecting one more this year.

Don’t know who Ken is, but you may owe him a beer or two

It is a great watch, but presumably Rolex have only limited capacity and wanted to devote more resources to manufacturing the more popular BLNR and BLRO versions, rather than the LN.
There may be ADs out there who may have stock of the LN. It's a question of finding them! |
