OK. So I just heard from worker from inside the Rolex plant.

He is a buddy, of a cousin of this bartender that I know. So here goes:

Rolex pushed out the BLNR expecting success. But not this big of a success.

They then came out with the WG Pepsi to trim the herd, if you will, and get the most $$ out of the hugely desired Pepsi, knowing that they will sell even more BLNR's once the word gets out that the Pepsi will be WG.

They planned this strategy because they knew that it would piss of a lot of people........SOOOOO..........

They plan on doing the Coke in SS next year, knowing that it will be the greatest SS seller of all time.

You can doubt me all you want, but bartenders always know what is happening...

I am happy to take a few friendly bets on this one......

rle737ng · 30 July 2014, 07:07 AM

If true, maybe I will just have to have patience for a year.

Chrispare · 30 July 2014, 07:10 AM

Great ! I Will have one
Possible to already reserve ?

steveclocks · 30 July 2014, 07:11 AM

I very happily settle with my BLNR on my wrist...I'll enjoy and relax what you guys are going to buy next

Alfredo. · 30 July 2014, 07:12 AM

Hope this is true! A coke in the line up now that BLNR and BLRO are here is a MUST, IMO!

Did he also tell you the price increase is on the next Friday the 13th, too?

14060m · 30 July 2014, 07:15 AM

Neunundneunzig · 30 July 2014, 07:16 AM

Wow, I guess time will tell. Seems interesting. Thanks for sharing.

77T · 30 July 2014, 07:23 AM

Friday, 13 FEB 2015. It's in the cards, but he was "in his cups"

You know. He did say something about that.

It sounds familiar, now that you mention it.

CWIN · 30 July 2014, 07:26 AM

Haha. Even if a Coke were to come out in SS, I'd still choose the BLNR...maybe

The Libertine · 30 July 2014, 07:31 AM

I'll consider it IF - and this is a big IF - they ditch the PCLs. IF not, I'll gladly stick with my 16710 Coke.

GB-man · 30 July 2014, 07:33 AM

Also they will be releasing a platona black bezel, white dial, red daytona for 35k

texex91 · 30 July 2014, 07:50 AM

Look it's a flying pig...

datejust24 · 30 July 2014, 07:50 AM

hmmm....would be cool BUT...i also have my doubts...we'll see

luvsub · 30 July 2014, 07:55 AM

SS coke will be nice.

doubleinfive · 30 July 2014, 08:08 AM

I believe you...no reason not to...

AK797 · 30 July 2014, 08:15 AM

Think the Coke will be in SS but a red bezel for day is only for shepherds and Martians

BLNR will do for me.

may it be PT, or WG or SS

Thevenin · 30 July 2014, 08:36 AM

T01 · 30 July 2014, 08:50 AM

Interested to see what gets released next year!

mannyv11 · 30 July 2014, 08:51 AM

I would like that a lot =)

Kiddodoc · 30 July 2014, 08:58 AM

I have not stopped wearing my BLNR since getting it over a month ago. I have only used my DJ once and my Subc once in the interim. It really is a beautiful reference! I do believe that the Coke reference will do very well.

SoonerTA · 30 July 2014, 08:59 AM

Interesting story....

lig · 30 July 2014, 08:59 AM

I'll take an SS Coke with SuperJubilee please. Will even pay MSRP for it which is something I rarely do.
