It all comes down to supply of new models. Only Rolex can control the value of the BLNR1. I am happy the BLNR2 came on a Jubilee. I think this will help protect value of the original.

I would say "Such a good sell, not such a good buy!"

Basically "how much a person is willing to buy it for" at this point!

If only I had £15000 spare I would buy 2 of the newer much improved watch..on the jubilee bracelet

Fifteen thousand for a watch that is not discontinued and has been improved with a better movement....oh my what is the world coming to

I figured all the flippers and must haves would be selling the older BLNR for the new offering.

Just keep Batman instead of buying Batgirl

Today I’m offering my BLNR MK1 dial and clasp stamp version 1 for $50,000.

Don’t regret this offer in 6 weeks when the clasp stamp v1, (blnr version of flat 4) becomes highly sought after!

On the one hand, they didn't discontinue BLNR, they UPGRADED it which is the worst case scenario for those who invested heavily into BLNR.

On the other hand, the upgrade is aptly named "Batgirl."

JRT · 23 March 2019, 03:22 AM

Rolex has indeed discontinued 116710BLNR (Batman) and issued 126710BLNR (Batgirl) since 2019 Baselworld.

Danj338 · 23 March 2019, 03:26 AM

Heh

Water Wonderland · 23 March 2019, 03:38 AM

So you own one as well and this is your sad attempt at trying to drive up speculation? What is the point of this?

Are you the one trying to sell the $20k BLNR someone mentioned in another thread?

I would never call a 116710BLNR a good buy at 15k (especially if GBPs)

They didn't upgrade it, they just updated it. But, agree nicknames are the worst regardless lol

VicLeChic · 23 March 2019, 04:54 AM

I'll wait for the new one from the AD and save myself a small fortune, thanks.

Boaters · 23 March 2019, 10:16 AM

15K more $$$ than brains.

Oooooo. Love the Trading Places reference!

I held one and thought I’d see what happens. If it sells, it sells. Something is only worth what another will pay for it.

The comment on a gray holding 23 and releasing slowly is fascinating....

It’s all this buy low sell high talk that has dried up the market and Rolex has become aware of this and consequently it hurts the genuine buyer to acquire one for personal use.

I agree. 15,000 CAD is a decent buy for new with stickers...

denmanproject · 23 March 2019, 12:18 PM

Is your friend proud of paying that much?

SeaAndSky · 23 March 2019, 12:39 PM

Laugh out loud. Go get 'em scalpers.

Why is a better movement not considered an upgrade? 70hr versus 50hr reserve?
