This is so spot on. I haven't seen photos that capture the true magnificence of this dial. And believe me, I tried real hard and many times. If you're considering it, you absolutely need to get it! I've only recently bought mine, but its my absolute favorite Rolex. Here's the thread where I tried my best to capture whatever i could.

Crazy if true. I'd be really curious to know if this is more than a tall tale.

BLNR meteorite would be an awesome release for 2022. Rolex just hasn’t nailed the BLRO bezel colors, but the BLNR is on point
