No BLNR IN ROLEX CATALOGUE

Hi everyone,I'm sitting in the reception of Rolex At James and the catalogue and price list are both missing the BLNR.

April 2018 lists

Maybe it's true and they are stopping production.

For London anyway.

According to that list they are discontinuing the LN in steel too. Not likely.

It still appears in the AD's master catalogue. I verified this with my AD 2 weeks ago.

I will post from Japan.
Because it is translation software, I am sorry if it turned out funny English.
Is not it related to this story that only BLNR and LN are not displayed in the press room of Rolex's official website?
Is it only in Japan?
For other professional models, all reference numbers seem to be consistent. . . (Difference in color of dial is the same reference number: gray and blue of yacht master for example)

The BLNR is staying in the current lineup, despite what the catalogue shows.

According to this, only steel variant is the new BLRO 126710. Older version GMT remains in catalogue is the two tone black and full gold green dial GMT.

I guess if nib is on your list there appears to be enough drama to seek one out sooner rather than later. Thankfully I checked that box
