On the website the pictures have been made to look like it has a proper blue and red bezel. Unfortunately the live picture posted on this thread shows that it’s still pink and purple like the WG version that went before.

The jubilee bracelet just doesn’t work for me on this model.

Need to digest these new combinations. Think I'm sticking with my choice for the BLNR though. Hope some people higher up on the BLNR list at my AD will want to move to a list for one of the new GMTs

By the way, based on the Rolex website here, there is no price increase on the BLNR (I was expecting an increase).

Not loving the pastel color... Only reason we don’t have a Coke is because Pink and Black would look horrible!!!!

I called the rootbear last year. I really like it for my wife.

I like the jubilee but it’s not for me. I think it fits smaller guys better.

I'm on the list, have been quoted 2 years of wait.

Took me 50 min to get through the sales rep, he was swamped with phones calls about the Pepsi.

This is crazy. tens of people before me on the list already.

I've never seen this before, utter madness.

The pics for the SS SkyD on the Rolex website aren't really representative of the colors of the watches when seen in person. I think the same will be true here. Best to see it in person before buying IMHO.

Yeah, not impressed. Jubilee on GMT looks pretty bad in my opinion.

True and totally sucks. Oyster would be a big seller but this jubilee kills it for me as well.

Seems like this year's release is Rolex feeling a little guilty of just releasing the WG Pepsi in 2014.

Now you can pick between the WG pepsi, the SS pepsi, and the Tudor pepsi.

And you'll probably probably be able to pick up the WG black dial pespi used for $15-$19K soon.

Pepsi for all!

I'd rather get a jubilee bracelet for my BLNR.
On the other hand, that rolesor black brown version is tempting.

I don't think these are bad colours but I was more excited about it when I thought they had made them more vibrant like it seems on the website photos

Me too. I am shocked that Rolex would make a steel version, undermining all those who were compelled to buy the WG model to get a new Pepsi.
