Incoming....BLNR
Good day all,
So, some of you may have seen my post last week about considering replacing my SD43 with a BLNR as the SD43 is fairly heavy for a daily wearer. So, after that post last week I went to my local AD to put my name down for a BLNR, knowing that there was a list I was thinking I wouldn't have my hands on it for a good few months at least. Well...this morning I get a call, the AD has a BLNR for me! Was not expecting this at all, also in the short period between putting my name on the list for the BLNR and getting the call, I had decided that I could never part ways with the SD43! I also felt as though I could not pass on getting a BLNR for $8,550 out the door, particularly with the rumours about it being discontinued so now I have both the SD43 and BLNR to enjoy. I think I will keep the BLNR on ice for a little while though as mentally I was not ready for this purchase so soon (also the mrs will kill me if she finds out I have bought another Rolex so soon after buying my first one)!! |

Well, you can always replace a wife. But that BLNR would be hard to find again! Tough choices...

Been there. Best to be honest and tell her haha. I sold the BLNR when I just couldn't come to love it enough.
Beautiful watch though, nice to hear it showed up so quickly. Congrats! |

Nice.... Always remember it's better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission
