I finally got the call today from my local AD that they'd had a cancellation on a BLNR and asked if I wanted it? I was number 5 on the list but apparently the 4 in front of me didn't want to buy before Christmas.

Anyway I took up the opportunity and bought it smile

I'm loving the blue!

Great watches, wear better than the new sub case also.
2nd most sort after watch ATM after the ceramic Daytona.

I was in London the other week and some watch shops noticed I was wearing it, and offered to buy it there and then.

Crazy world, but the blnr gives you a Feel good factor for sure.

A great watch and a worthy investment.

I havent seen any ceramic pepsi bezel's at all just out of interest.

Maybe because of the high expection, hype, huge price, huge depreciation, devolution from no nonsense vibe into jewellery, they really don't do it for me!

I've seen that too, I think he's over compenstating for having to wear TW Steel for too long, contract must have ended!

Mind you, who sponsors F1???

I noticed Franchitti wearing a white ceramic Daytona while doing the FOS TV

Had this for over a year now. I get on much better with the rubber b than the bracelet although some say a rubber strap on a GMT is wrong. Each to their own I guess.

He has a nice collection of watches from what I've seen during this F1 season, Webber had a lovely looking piece on as well last weekend look like a IWC Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph.
