Are people wearing the Blnr and putting the Blro in the safe?

I see way more BLNRs in the wild. And when I do see them they seem to be well worn. On the other hand I don’t see many ceramic BLROs in the wild. And on the rare occasion they are usually pristine. I wonder for those who have both wear the BLNR more and keep the BLRO for more special occasions or are safe queens.

The BLNR was introduced in 2013, and the BLRO in 2018. That might explain why there are more BLNRs in the wild and why they show more signs of wear.

No

The blnr is just way easier to get, and by a factor they ship more of it, so there are much more watches on the market.

The BLRO is hardly a special occasion piece.
Wear them to splinters folks.

I don’t think there are that many people having both of them.
