Hey y’all!

Long time since I’ve posted, but this one’s important.
This morning I got a call from the AD I didn’t expect for another 2 years.
A 126710BLRO

This is the crazy part. I’m not sure I should buy it.
It’s beautiful, I love it, my wife loves it. But the thing is, I already have a TT LN..
What do I do

_Jef

Ps. a take out of my chaos of thoughts: “It’s a trap!”, “this is a no-brainer”, “value will plummet soon enough”, “I feel honored to even have this chance”, “yes!yes!yes!no.yes!”, ..

123Blueface · 25 July 2019, 10:10 AM

Owning one myself, I say “no brainer”. BUY!

Muxi · 25 July 2019, 10:10 AM

Buy it. It’s a beauty and that’s a keeper.

enjoythemusic · 25 July 2019, 10:19 AM

Op, you know the answer...

billfredericks · 25 July 2019, 10:22 AM

The time to buy it is when you see it.

imgook · 25 July 2019, 10:24 AM

Bet there's a like a thousand people hating you right now!!

pepsiretail · 25 July 2019, 10:25 AM

Haha, you're not crazy.

You are

911RSR · 25 July 2019, 10:25 AM

Oddly enough, I experienced the same feeling when I was given the exact same call. I had to be corrected by my 14-year-old son. He recognized the significance of the piece before I did. I now own the watch, and consider among my very favorite of the modern examples. Do not let it pass you by.

RJRJRJ · 25 July 2019, 10:26 AM

Buy it, assuming you like it. It's very different than a TT LN.

pepsiretail · 25 July 2019, 10:27 AM

And another thing

Rabidmonk0 · 25 July 2019, 10:29 AM

Buy it. If you change your mind later, you can always sell it. If you don't buy and change your mind later, you can't get it.

stylinleems · 25 July 2019, 10:30 AM

1000% Buy

Explorer2Guy · 25 July 2019, 10:30 AM

If you have to ask, the answer is “no.”

You should already know the answer. You’ve already stated it.

watchmework · 25 July 2019, 10:30 AM

Pick it up, it’s the best reference in the line up imo.

interestedwatcher · 25 July 2019, 10:33 AM

Buy, if you hate it, flip it.

Pw92676 · 25 July 2019, 10:40 AM

Buy it then wear and enjoy it.

Sydny2 · 25 July 2019, 10:45 AM

What are you waiting for? Buy it now!!

Muxi · 25 July 2019, 10:47 AM

One of the main reasons Rolex should not flood the market. It’s not even happening yet but psychologically if you get one too easily, expecting a longer wait, it creates a doubt, a feeling of guilt, remorse or sobering up.

If I tell you that is the last for the year and there is an upcoming price increase, you’d probably jump at the chance to buy it right away.

It’s a beautiful watch. Buy it. Or I’ll buy it.

Easy E · 25 July 2019, 10:51 AM

Are you seriously asking a watch forum if you should buy a nearly impossible to find,stud of a watch? You must be crazy ��. Go get that thing. As stated above, if you don’t like it that’s easy money coming back.

tgyberg · 25 July 2019, 10:56 AM

Totally buy it.

ThatExplorer · 25 July 2019, 11:04 AM

Easy money on return but I'm gonna be the odd one out here, if you're not sure theres a reason why... The BLRO is not for me, I appreciate its beauty ans value (rare status could mean less to me), but again at the end of the day, your happiness, money and life...

Cheers mate, and beautiful watch.

I think nearly everyone here agrees on two things.
1- I should run to the ad in my slacks without even closing the front door behind me, and buy it
2- Even thinking about this twice is insanity

SS Oyster · 25 July 2019, 11:36 AM

Buy it if only for the value

How could you not buy this model if offered at MSRP?!?

If you snooze you lose in this game. If you left it behind and then took the time to write this post and wait for responses then don’t be surprised if it’s gone by the time you go back for it!!

McLovin · 25 July 2019, 11:49 AM

I can understand being satisfied with the TT LN. It’s a great timepiece.
