Jokes aside the new mk2 bezel makes more sense to be called Kermit if you must

I think we all should finally agree that the darker MK 1 bezel is Starbucks and the never lighter toned MK 2 is Cermit
Congrats anyhow! |

Thank you. That's what I call mine. I picked it up 10 days ago.

The Kermit will always be the 5-digit.
I tried on a Mk1 (Starbucks) a couple of weeks ago, and was not impressed with the dark green bezel. At all. Haven't tried on a Mk2 to see the difference, but the pictures don't impress. If I ever get one I'd get the Flat 4 5-digit. |

Congrats, OP! Can someone please explain to me the difference between the Kermit, Cermit, and Starbucks nicknames, and I’m not talking frogs or coffee. Thanks.

Nice One ! Starbucks mk 1 or 2 are great watches, I prefer mk 2 with the lighter green, more of an ode to the original Kermit ..
Watch or Drink, love the brushed links too ..

I know it’s previously frozen but I’m a fan of their Impossible Breakfast Sandwich. Dunkin’ had something similar, but I can’t seem to find it anymore. I suppose that’s why there isn’t a Dunkin’ Rolex.
Anyway, congrats on the watch, or the coffee or whatever. Try the sandwich. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Oh my gosh, the Wendy's chocolate Frosty is so delicious! I loved it with the chili and fries as a kid.

Hulk/Cermit is the 6 digit LV with green face Starbucks is the 6 digit LV with black face Cermit didn't take as a nickname, but people still throw it around. |

Thank you. So, basically the Starbucks is the newer Kermit reference, with ceramic bezel, and the Cermit is the same as the Hulk. Got it. Let’s hope Rolex releases a Coke at W & W…. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I thought Cermit applied only to the 126610LV. I only mention that because I thought it was rather creative. 16610 Kermit, Hulk 116610, Cermit 126610. I prefer the nickname over Starbuck but that’s because I’m a Dunkin’ guy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
