Fellow WG Sub owners/admirers. I apologise for doubting you guys!!! (long read)

I did see it as a beautiful watch since always, especially since I have a thing for the blue, but I never thought of it as a watch I would want to buy for some reason.
For starters, it sometimes looked too blue; Also couldn't justify the money.

I came on here as a lurker, looking to see what people thought of the BLNR, and purchased it soon after.
I never thought I would spend more than that amount of money in my dreams, on a watch. But here we are today, months later, and a 5711 purchase later, looking for another watch.
Crazy how I went from trying so hard to justify the BLNR, to now looking for a third watch. We have all been there I guess.

The weight on this watch, with the stealth factor, and the blue color together with the beautiful white gold, are probably the best combination in a watch EVER!!

It was funny that initially the AD told me he doesn't understand why Rolex makes WG, and he practically dissed the watch, and how people would obviously prefer a YG watch if they were to pay that much money, otherwise just go SS.
Once I told him I would like to try it, he changed his mind and told me how stunning it is. =/

I immediately thought that I should really flip the 5711.. That is how stunning the watch is in the flesh.
It also fits my life style much better as a causal dresser.
Once I calmed down, I reminded myself how much I love the 5711, and how much harder it is/was for me to find in brand new, and that I have a lot of time to save up for the Smurf.

Being only 25, I have plenty of time to add the piece, and having just bought my Patek, it is very unlikely I will be adding the smurf anytime soon.

This is however my next watch. I will be back my friends!!!!! Wait for me, I will join the club!!
