Well, folks.
Dropped $13600 on a brand new BLNR today. My first genuine and new Rolex ever.
I've got the rep on order with Legend to be serviced and waterproofed prior to me getting it but so far I've got to say I'm a bit underwhelmed. I was offered it at retail and said sure, knowing I can recoup the funds plus 50-100% as soon as required.
I don't have the same model to compare it to but honestly next to my anything in my rep box first impressions are not 13k different, not $1300 to be really honest.
Obviously, longevity should come into this and should I keep it I can pass it to the kids kids where I expect the rep to last years not generations but I am surprised. I honestly thought there would have been more of a difference.
Just a bit shocked.
Kudos to the rep machines, they are turning out some fine work.
