Visit to AD today

Well today I had to take my watch into the AD to get an adjustment made.

Tried on a few beauties whilst there!!!!

Isn't the bug bad when you've got it? LOL

It is, however I'm conscious not to take up too much of their time and I am extremely courteous to them. I know their time is money, but I guess since I just bought my watch there they wouldn't mind since it was quiet.

Could be interesting in the future. UK leaves EU, Scotland becomes independent and joins EU, £ no longer viable currency for Scotland and has to adopt € and shoppers will then flip flop across the boarder both way depending on various factors? Not sure how Ireland and NI works.

I digress buy that white gold beast!

no problem guys and happy to post.
As a collection it would be fantastic!!!

The LV looked great on and totally different. Overall, probably wouldnt be my choice.
The ND was perfect with a nice clean dial without date. Maybe a touch bland though.
The BRLO was stunning, nice and heavy and felt special..but £25k would go elsewhere in the Rolex range.
And my BLNR.....well I love it and I think it is the perfect compromise of everything!

Thanks everyone - if I could pick between LV and sub as second watch I would really struggle. They're both lovely.

I'm biased however and think the BLNR is just that extra bit special.

Same here! The colours aren't overly vibrant but it feels great on.

Funny you should say that.
I pointed that out to the lady at the AD and she had no idea what I was on about.

I showed her my BLNR next to the others and she agreed there was a difference but said if it was a QC issue they would know about it (!)

Especially the LV date looks small.
