My Prediction About the New Jubilee GMT!

I believe what appears to be the new GMT on on a Jubilee will in fact be a SS Pepsi and not a Coke! Let's just say it’s a hunch!

Will it be blue and red, or will it be pink and purple?

I’d be willing to bet that it’s gonna be Blue and Red... or Pink and Purple!

Besides, I’ve heard the only difference between Pink and Purple is how hard it’s squeezed! Your wrist that is, how hard it’s squeezed by wearing your bracelet to tight that is!

Why would Rolex make a Pepsi bezel and totally insult the white gold owners and immediately devalue that reference overnight. If that happened, no one would ever buy a white gold Rolex from them again.
Like releasing a blue dial ss in the same colors as the LB.

I'm staring to think people are more bored than ever in todays social media world and just want to troll on TRF to have popular threads and views.

Well, people thought there would not ever be a Sky-dweller in SS and they did it, so always a possibility

Whoa...simmer down there Shirade...this thread was meant as a fun, last minute prediction that I could clearly be wrong on. However you hi jacking my whimsical thread with negativity and aggressively insulting me and insinuating I’m a troll...pretty much makes you the only Troll on this thread!

Perhaps you should relax a bit...it’s only a Watch forum!

And yes, this was exactly part of my thought process! Along with the thought they are likely discontinuing the WG version which would help it retain its value, and then can cash in on the SS Jubilee version before ultimately offering up on an Oyster just before unveiling the Coke version at Basel a few years later and cashing in all through the process. But that’s just my puny lil’ Troll brain at work!

There's an easy solution for that !

They could just put the red on the upper portion of the bezel !! The all new 2018 "Reverse" Pepsi SS GMT !!!!

Ops ! I forgot ! On The new Jubilee bracelet !!!

They haven't used the romans dial. There is a way to differentiate between the gold and the ss just like white gold Daytonas have a different bezel.
There wouldn't be a way to tell if they just brought out the same design on stainless. If they do, oh well. People have been predicting this and that for years. If I keep predicting every year the same thing eventually it will be true. I have a feeling Rolex will stop production of the LVC this year and make a new...it will eventually be true....that's not reporting or insightful, just luck.

If it is a Pepsi in SS maybe it will only available on the jubilee. WG only on oyster.

Lols, aggressively insult, please. I did no such thing.
It was not an insult, it was my opinion, just as you have yours. If you post in a public thread, be prepared for an all inclusive set of replies, not only the ones you like.
It's another waste of time thread on something that has been discussed ad nauseum every year on TRF since they stopped the color scheme...every single Basel.
And to bring it up again for the thousandth time is trolling. It would have probably been better to just rehash one of the other threads on this exact same prediction.
Just my .02

I suppose that's plausible. Also using a different tone. But I seriously doubt a Pepsi in stainless will ever materialize.

Still a trollish thread. Like you were the one original predictor. This prediction has been made every year and long before you even joined this forum, lol. Not to mention the other thirty threads leading up to today. Now let's go discuss watches.

However, I do stand corrected. Not at all surprising at this point. I'm more blown away by the new Deepsea release.

I’m a Troll? Because I created a post predicting a SS Pepsi just moments before it was released and then had to put up with you calling me a Troll not once, not twice but now three times for making said prediction, which you went on to make abundantly clear wouldn’t happen and yet it did! I’ve been on these forums since they started and a member since around 2011 or so and have owned more Rolex watches then I care to count. Yet, no one has ever even hinted at me being a Troll. You’ve embarrassed yourself with your foolish insults and conduct and are clearly a fool! This will be my last response...as I have far better things to do than deal with the socially inept!
