Owning both watches I consider it a tough choice, though I would have to go for the Pepsi. All stainless steel makes it more suitable for daily wear, jubilee hides scratches and is super comfortable. With that being said the Root Beer is an absolute stunner and works better as a weekend watch for more festive/dressy occasions.

I’m surprised the poll is as close as it is. The Pepsi is a class above the root beer in my opinion. To each his own; that is why they sell different models.

I concur. Looks more mature. Somehow, I find the Pepsi looks like a kid’s watch because of the bezel colours.

CHNR by a mile, the Pepsi is too common for my wrist.

Looks elegant yes, but certainly not the best Rolex GMT ever made.

2 of my favorites but if given the choice of one over the other it would be the BLRO.

I have both and they are both great. They would make a terrific 2 watch combination. If I had to choose one of the two, it would depend on what I wear to work. If more casual, I would take the Pepsi on jubilee, if more formal work clothes, I would go with the Rootbeer. Pick any one and save for the other is the best thing to do.
