This is the original BLNR.

That is one of many variants of the BLRO, and very different from the original.

I'll keep my original BLNR.

Ditto, would never sell, plus will be disco in less than a year and worth 15k in 5 years.

Time will be kind.

I wouldn’t sell my BLNR. Adding the BLRO would be a nice contrast though

I think the numbers on this poll reflect exactly what Rolex projected. It's going to be a super hot watch and not really affect the BLNR much, if any. A win-win.

Nope. I love my BLNR. I would love a WG BLRO though.

I'm actually surprised the 25% at this point of the poll in favor of flipping is as high as it is. No way I'm letting the BLNR go (even if I did not have a 16710 pepsi already).

I predict based on my conversation with grey market dealers around the world that the new 126710BLRO will be in short supply ala the 166500 Ceramic Daytona and will carry a 25-50% premium right off the bat. That will probably help drive up the value of the BLNR model also.

I’ve never been a big PM watch guy, so the new BLRO is a great addition to the lineup. That said, I would rather keep my BLNR. It’s the original two tone ceramic GMT and it would be tough to part with. I still like it better than the SS BLRO.

Clearly not a BLNR owner, but certainly interested in stirring the pot, so to speak.

Good! More for those who would be seen with a BLNR in public then.

Not I. If anything I’d rather add it than replace it

The BLNR is the first Rolex to have a bi-color ceramic bezel, the first watch (period) to have a bi-color ceramic bezel, and the first Rolex GMT to have a a medley of blue and black.

Easily a classic and not to be sold.

I’ll add the PepsiC (when available), and have an eye out for the RG or TT Rootbeer, however the BLNR is here to stay.
