@LebamDWAG New Watch!

Swaye

Hello degenerates. I got a new watch. Actually I have picked up a few in the last several weeks/months, but I will dribble them out over several months so everyone doesn't get fed up with my watch threads. Newest watch in the stable is the Rolex GMT Master II BLNR, commonly called the Batman. This watch is now discontinued (as of a week ago). In fact, in a weird stroke of luck, my AD called me that they had it and I picked it up the day it was announced by Rolex they were changing the watch. The new version of this watch (won't be shipped for months) looks exactly the same but is on a Jubilee bracelet vice the Oyster bracelet.

I love the watch. Best part is I picked it up for $9,400 with tax, and these are selling on the secondary market for 14K + right now. I have no intentions of selling it, but nice to make 5 grand when you purchase something. One day this hot Rolex market will crater, but for now these (Rolex SS sport models) are the hottest watches on the planet.

So here's Batman!

So how many bugs had to die for this? #Bugslivesmatter

Nice watch - but your maff reminds me of the maff my wife uses. She bought shoes that cost $200 for the low price of $100, so she bought two pairs and made $200.

So many bugs. Plus I robbed two 7-11s after some fisticuffs in the porking lot.

Feeling really hurt right now. I thought I was supposed to get private screenings of new aquisitions before they get posted.

I tried to sext it to you but I fucked it up. I'm dumb.

I will *never* tire of watch threads.

You’re really making me want that purple face Oyster Perpetual.

Tell your wife I understand.

Sometimes the red man gets lucky in the white man's world.

You really should do it. I'm serious.

FYI @Swaye, looks like your Batman is going up against the Rolex Explorer in Crown and Caliber’s “Watch Madness” bracket:

A watch March Madness?! Swaye don’t forget to seek medical attention for erections lasting longer than 4 hrs.

Interesting that they took the old model Explorer. I love that watch. I think I like the newer model better though. Think I'd take the Batman out of this round of four.

Batman is kewl AF. Coker GMT is the GOAT however. But it’s my daddy’s watch so I’m biased.

Agreed.

I looked over the bracket and was upset how quickly the JLCs and Cartiers got knocked out.

And once again they left out the Rouchefoucauld! Travesty!

Rumor is they will release one again in the next few years. If they do people will go apeshit.

Why did they discontinue the Coke GMT anyhow? It's one of their best sellers of all tim.
