I think that's just dealer talk! I have occasionally (not often by any means) seen BLNRs in the window here in the south.

Can't wait to see it in real!

I am a newbie and this is my first Rolex, what do I need to check in particular when I collect it?

Any help is much appreciated :-)
Congratulations perfect choice, I've had mine for about 15 months and am still over the moon with it.

When you collect it check that the magnification on the Cyclopes is correct, mine was very poor and in the end I had to send back to Rolex for repair..

Just a word of advice.. Some people blur their serial numbers before posting photos online to prevent scammers from taking advantage of them. That's what I've heard.

Anyway, congratulations on your great GMT!!
