I just bought mine for retail and the AD gave me a ROLEX magazine issue 1 which features the daytona for free. This was pretty cool~

Sole_ · 15 December 2013, 01:20 AM

I absolutely love mine. It's my first Rolex and I got the last one here in Toronto at the AD I bought it from.

The day I took her home :)

Lovely watch, but not a fan of the nickname(s)

Sean9689 · 18 May 2014, 05:15 AM

Just received my brand new BLNR from a TRF trusted seller today. Had only tried on a TT GMTII to judge the size and had never seen a BLNR in person. I must say, looks even better than the pics! Tags & stickers removed...ready to wear out tonight!

Art 1 · 18 May 2014, 05:22 AM

Well done, Sean. Enjoy.

Joearch · 18 May 2014, 05:32 AM

I like everything about this time piece.

mfnj · 18 May 2014, 05:42 AM

The blue is amazing and changes in different lighting. Can go dressy or sporty. Two thumbs up.

AS1 · 18 May 2014, 05:46 AM

such a beautiful watch. this is my next one for sure. i just tried a GMT (not BLNR) on for the first time in a Rolex boutique and absolutely fell in love with the dial and way it wears on the wrist.

Yeah did the same...tried on a TT GMT II at an AD and figured if I liked the TT I would love the BLNR. Needless to say, it's a stunning piece.

harrjaso · 18 May 2014, 07:01 AM

It is really nice and super comfortable. Only thing with the polished center links on bracelet is that it's a little dressy to be a daily wearer imo, but then again I am self employed and dress casual everyday.

Btw, expressed interest to local AD about watch after seeing them listed for as much as $9500-10k and he put me on wait list. Called me in one week to say they got one, law of attraction at its finest boys.

I think the main thing is that pictures always show the blue as really bright. It's very subtle most times and at times really blends in so a second look is required to see the blue. This was my main concern with it.

One thing I hate have the dial with the arrow at the top so I'm using the gmt function different.

This is very true. Every time I've seen one outside, I've had to do a bit of a double-take.

I've even tried to take pictures that don't show the bright blue and not possible.

Moral - don't get photographed

viper9669 · 18 May 2014, 11:07 AM

Ok so where I come from closing something out with the term "Deal with it" is classed as being hostile....dude you have the telescope around the wrong way......

That comment wasn't even directed to you. The OP used a common nickname that people around the world have identified with the watch. More know it by that name than its model number I'm sure. Also, Rolex employees were the ones that started calling the watch the Bruiser. If someone doesn't like the nicknames there are classier ways of expressing that dislike. "Deal with it" is defined as accepting or handling something and moving on. Don't see much hostility in that but again, wasn't even directed at you. Relax and enjoy the watches and stop trolling me, pretty please and thank you.

Not really, very few people are using this lousy nickname these days. It's BLNR, at least until something really original comes up.
Calling BLNR batman is like calling pepsi a clown.

Why is using batman a pejorative?
