So, back in November/December i decided to get a quote to sell a few of my Rolex watches as my job was looking a bit iffy, I contacted watchfinder and for my GMT BLNR they offered me 7-8K depending on condition after their inspection, as i turned out, i got another years contract, so no need to let any watches go, (I probably wouldn't have sold any anyway, mostly did it out of curiosity)
Out of the blue yesterday Watchfinder emailed to ask if i was still interested in selling my BLNR and offered me 9K there and then, I see they already have three on their website, so i'm wondering why the sudden interest.

Rumours that this model is discontinued (its not Rumour really its true) but there is speculation as to what happens next, Bobs watches did an article in Dec commenting that the GMT BLNR has possibly been replaced by the New GMT Pepsi - and that Rolex dont need more than one Multi colour Bezel GMT in the range, others are saying they may re-appear with the new Movement - either way i would imagine its sparked further interest, and as Watch finder isnt short of cash, they can afford to buy more in and no doubt have no trouble shifting them on at £10-11K.
