Incoming BLRO for Christmas (photos)
Yesterday I received a call from my Tokyo AD. He mentioned that he would like to give me a 2024 calendar and "stuff". This is not uncommon as he often gives me the Rolex magazine and other goodies from time to time. When I arrived, we made small talk, informed me that prices would again increase by 10% on Jan 1. Then went into the back and brought out "the tray" with the watch covered. OMG, a watch was not on my mind when visiting. Then he uncovered the BLRO and said it was the first he had seen in months. Speechless. A couple days late but Santa delivered. The long wait is over and now in the BLRO "club" with a lot of other TRF'ers . Oh, and did get a '24 calendar. Although I haven't yet looked at it

Nice man. Cool way to present the watch to you.
How long was the wait time for your BLRO? |

Wow congrats!! And the lighting on your second photo is proof positive we need a ceramic coke GMT in 2024. It looks almost red/black in that light and it’s perfection.
