word up… good buddy of mine picked up a BLNR recently as well. i picked up the speedometer matching bracelet for him in Vegas a few weeks back. did you get rid of something else and move to this? you had a Sub right? i find that so many of the Rolex sport models look too similar to own multiples ---

Sub, GMT Master ii, SD4000 and now this GMT Master ii BLNR All very different watches (except for the GMT ii’s). They might all look similar but I don’t wear them for variety. The BLNR right now is the hottest watch Rolex has. Took forever to find one locally and when I did, it was the only one they are getting for the foreseeable future. I was thinking about cashing and getting a couple different watches, but there really isn’t anything that catches my attention that I don’t have or haven’t had. ☹ ---
