New Member (with new to me) BLNR

I got this BLNR in Toronto that used to belong to an Asian movie star a while ago and just got around to posting. I added the Everest strap and love it.

This is going to be a very expensive hobby isn't it?

Congrats...

Yes...do tell on the famous previous owner. Any provenance? Name on papers? ;-)

But I hope you will enjoy that on the Bracelet soon. Such a great component of the watch. Seems a shame to wear it on rubber. IMO.

Nice! A lot better than a LeBaron that was owned by John Voight!

Huge congrats! It could potentiallly be dearer than your average 116710BLNR in the future. Make sure you preserve records of provenance. Enjoy it in the best of health.
