Great pics. Love the colours personally. I think this is the best looking modern Rolex by miles and the jubilee is the icing on the cake!

The red can be a little muted in the sun and can look light reddish

The blue can be a little muted in the sun and can look light blueish

I don’t own but I did stay in a Motel 6 Last night

Hope this valuable information helps you...

I sampled the official 126710 photo on Rolex.com and got the nearest paint match:

"Madam M is a chic rouge red, sleek, sensuous and luscious".

So no, it's not pink

Pictures do not do it justice and neither does fluorescent lighting. The red is red and the blue is blue. People will argue the colors are off but after owning one for 4 months, I can tell you that the colors are excellent and vibrant. They only vary depending on the lighting in the room.

Yup, so much so, has officially set the standard by which pink is identified.

I just received mine today, wasn’t sure what to expect, given how split the comments are in the forum. I must say it looks sublime in person, the blue is a deep blue and the red is almost burgundy in natural daylight. Not at all purple and pink. The jubilee is fantastic and comfortable, very solidly made and makes it look different from the other GMTs and definitely gives it the extra special look.

Looks awesome! I’m glad I didn’t sleep on this one based on forum comments or online pics. In person the colors are fantastic. Congrats!

Regardless of what camp you are in, just let the thread die. Answers have been given, direction to search has been given, both opinions are represented. Stop wasting time; people will believe what they want.

I enjoy that it has it's own character. I don't need it to be a carbon copy of the old aluminum insert. New tech, different colors...not the end of the world. It looks great in person!

In poorly taken photos, agree.
In real life, in your hands, have yet to witness that with mine.
