Incoming: WG content
Hi gents,
Wanted to share my latest. Picked up the BLRO. Sacrificed the smurf. As much I want to pursue a yg watch, I'm a wg guy (for now). I was able to order one and had some small delay at the AD so total wait time was about 4 weeks. The question now is, move blnr or not. That watch is near perfect so I'll take a little time to decide if it stays or goes. The weight is amazing on PM watches and this one is no different although my wrist sense says the smurf edges it in weight. To the pics

Huge Congrats. It's a beauty!
I'd get rid of the BLNR. With the BLRO, I doubt you'll wear it much. When I got the Smurf, I flipped the TT Sub I had, knowing I wouldn't wear it.

Congratulations!
 Out of curiosity, what made you decide to flip the 619? |

I have wrist envy..
Serious congrats though! I'm picking up a BLRO this year and was also wondering if the BLNR will see any wrist time once I have the WG. Interested in hearing your opinions going forward. |

 The 116619 was great but I found it just a bit too much blue, especially in sunny conditions. The bezel was just too much for me in bright conditions. I LOVED it indoors and in overcast etc. slap a sunburst on there and I'm in trouble - you listening Basel powers.... Bascially the dial and bezel were same color which I found just a bit over the top. That said, I tend to flip so I can pretty much provide a reason for any watch, even perfect ones

Congrats! Great watch; kind of makes the BLNR a bit redundant

Beauty! Great decision and combo paired with the BLNR (one can never have too many GMTs
)
