Long overdue addition
It is not the BLRO I am on a waiting list for, but IMO something more special to me. I have lusted after a Pepsi/Coke GMT master 2 for a long time. With the recent spike in their prices I was starting to give up on finding one at a decent price and pinned my hopes on a BLRO.
As part of the deal I parted with an used 116710LN I recently bought used. A lovely watch in its own right, but this one just sang to me. A good mate made the deal possible  Full kit as well. Now I somehow just need to source an OEM Pepsi insert for this one. Or find a pepsi GMT Master 2 to buy

These 5 digit GMTs have skyrocketed in price. I’m so glad that I have one in my collection.

Congrats on the GMT! That bezel looks like it's been aged to perfection.
