It looks so purple in your pic! And yet it doesn't bother me, I'm starting to embrace purple.

Mega Congratulations a beautiful watch.

I am living in Saudi and was quoted at least 1 year from my AD and I am a regular customer, possibly more.

That said he did say that due to it being Ramadan that he had at least 4 GMT BNLR (Batmans) in stock that he could sell me straight away.

The list price though is now though is SAR 37,500, £7,550 or $9,990 equivalent.

Maybe with the new model the BNLR waiting lists will completely dry up now.

Congrats and looks great!

There appear to be a few of these coming through in the UK now. Whilst I'm on the list with my AD, I'm not holding out much hope of seeing mine any time soon. Do you know if the majority of owners have sourced their via the mainstream ADs (e.g. Goldsmiths, Maplin & Webb, WoS, etc) or have they been more through smaller independent ADs.

Whilst I have no problem waiting for a bit, the prospect of waiting years is a little frustrating, so any tips for smaller independent UK ADs who might have shorter lists, would be appreciated :)

In the meantime, congrats again on your lovely BLRO!
