Good news. Congrats bro!!!
I am in Australia and now there are very few chances to get one, due to the population here and very limited stock... I am not a super VIP but have bought enough other watches to get 2 subs (lv and ln) from one shop within 12 months. |

BLNR Wait
I never owned a watch before. Shucks. Someone told me Rolex steel were hard to get, so I walked in off the street and the dealer ran to me with three watches on a silver platter - 1st was a white face Watch with all these subdials and pushers (super busy looking) with black shiny thing around it, 2nd was same but with black face and this other 3rd one with black face, funky red little hand and funny blue and red circle around the outside.
I told them I only wanted a gold and silver dress watch, so I was gonna buy that one, but decided I’d wait. I don’t know why everyone is up in arms. These things are super easy to buy. They nearly attached me at the door with what they said were popular models. I think they said something about 25% discount and no tax on the silver ones. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

As collector you have to focus. Never you can own all of the watches you would like, nor it`s gonna be a profund collection - more like a Bazaar - something from everything but nothing really special. The 16610 LV offers you all a collector is looking for! I don`t even like the maxi case of the BLNR and so i didn`t ever wear one of themes! |

Whenever I see an incoming the first thing I like to look at is where the OP is located.

Well I just went down to my local ad after 4 months of building report with several sales employees there and put down 30% for the BLNR. After several visits in the past they have been notifiying me of all inventory that comes in. Sub date, sub no date, James Cameron and several explorers 2. I just kept passing and really wanted the BLNR. They did receive a BLNR back in November for another one on the list and let me try it on. I fell in love. That being said all 4 sales associates said to put a deposit down for the BLNR and it shouldn’t take that long for the wait to recieve it.
