Current retail in the UK for a BLNR is £5950 GBP
So tax free it would be £4958.33 |

What is it with "very understanding" wives/girlfriends and BLNR's...?
My wife did the exact same thing when we strolled into an AD on Maui and they just happened to have a BLNR in stock... I tried it on and then she said "go for it...you've been lusting after one of these for months now and here it is - so grab it before it's sold to somebody else" ... so I did and am very happy.... both with the BLNR and my wonderful understanding wife... cheers

Lovely story and a beautiful watch.
Did you by any chance fall into a handbag shop after she encouraged you to buy? :-) Apologies for sounding cynical but after 23 years of marriage i am 20% in on understanding the female mind! |

Very nice, congrats and congrats for selecting such a wise fiancee.
I bought my hulk because my (then) fiancee told me to when I was on the fence.
