Pepsi w/ Oyster Band -Steel-

I put my Batman's oyster bracelet on the Pepsi. I always liked the way WG Pepsi looked and to be honest, this is my favorite Rolex. I will never understand why Rolex decided to end the Oyster Bracelet on the GMT models.

Your switch from the jubilee to the oyster makes a huge difference and a much more attractive watch. Good move!

This is perfection at an affordable price.

*Obtaining BLRO is another story

no. I did this sway before Rolex even announced the new Batman

The pins on the Pepsi is larger than the old Batman.
Basically they made the pins larger when they switched from 116710 to 126710

Because the Pepsi has larger pins, it has larger pin holes on the case.
Batman's band with Batman's pins will fit the Pepsi with larger hole.

Pepsi's Jubilee with the larger pins will not fit the small holes on the Batman case

Can’t you just use the Pepsi’s pins with the Oyster bracelet on the Pepsi and use the BLNR pins with the jubilee on the BLNR?

The thicker pins of the Pepsi won't go through the holes on the bracelet

It is not impossible to do. If anyone wants to put Jubilee on Batman, they can (you can always order an extra set of thin pins online)

I have both Oyster and Jubilee Batman and I think Oyster is 10 times better looking than the new Jubilee
