Im hoping to add the GMT Pepsi on an oyster band if I can ever get one. I don't have any GMTs and could use a non chronograph as I am pretty much a chronograph collector. Was offered a 126719BLRO yesterday form my AD but just not comfortable dropping 38+tax on watch right now so turned it down. Kicking myself a bit but id prefer the SS.

BLRO, BLNR, or CHNR. So as to cover all bases, 226570 Exp.II.

karleone · 20 December 2021, 05:30 AM

You can’t go wrong with a steel Sub or a steel Gmt!

Correct, I forgot to add a diver on my above response.

Wcdhtwn · 20 December 2021, 05:36 AM

Anything not a chronograph. Just looking at the collection, not knowing anything about you, I’d say it’s time for a dress watch. And in that case I’m not sure Rolex is the best option.

So goes for SS BLRO (Pepsi) at your AD.

Shazbot302 · 20 December 2021, 05:51 AM

Any GMT. Maybe the CHNR just to add a pop of color and PM to your collection.

JayHantz · 20 December 2021, 05:53 AM

I would add either a GMT (BLRO or BLNR) or maybe a TT Yachtmaster 40 for some color!

richard371 · 20 December 2021, 06:26 AM

Thanks. Kinda wished I had not turned down that 126719BLRO but that price is not easy to swallow hype or not. Id prefer the 9k SS version.

I'm glad we are being picky and waiting for our dream watches but realistically if ADs think you're lucky to get a DJ or DD these days, getting a SS Pepsi without much history isn't likely.

The hot SS are likely even more going to the big clients and dealers. Meaning you have to be prepared to spend if you want a chance at the hotter stuff.

If you can't buy a 38k hot PM model why should they sell you the SS? Game right now is different than it was even 2 years ago.

rmagoo57 · 20 December 2021, 07:35 AM

I would add some color. SS BLRO would be a great start!

Perfect for travel and does everything at the beach a Submariner does...

GrantD · 20 December 2021, 07:43 AM

Given your like of complications I’d suggest a Sky Dweller

Krash · 20 December 2021, 07:55 AM

My collection is similar (obviously smaller, but still similar in appearance) and I’m adding a DJ41, silver dial, fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet.

124060 or 124270 or 14060M or 114270 or 16710 or BLNR or BLRO

Tangier11 · 20 December 2021, 08:45 AM

Yachtmaster 40

brandrea · 20 December 2021, 08:46 AM

A GMT is a fine addition to your collection, but I’d also add a diver

ap1 · 20 December 2021, 09:35 AM

Go back for the gold one, bundle the ss, sell to soften the price

Parapraxis · 20 December 2021, 10:32 AM

Basically get rid of everything other than the Daytona and start, building a Rolex collection.

Maybe you can keep the original speedmaster if you really want an omega that bad. But no need to have multiple omegas at all.

TswaneNguni · 20 December 2021, 10:37 AM

Keep the moonwatch,get rid of the other non-Rolex and ad 2.

Nodzex · 20 December 2021, 10:57 AM

If interested in Rolex only I’d say a SS GMT or a Sub. If other brands are in the play, I’d go with GS Snowflake. With a GS you get a color, another great non Swiss brand and a dress piece.

Stark4 · 20 December 2021, 11:04 AM

I think you got the right answer. Exactly my thought after I looked at the pic...if there were my collection i'd be adding a SS pepsi (and replacing the seamaster with some sort of sub - hulk, 41 LN or LV)

Gotta have a sub, maybe the two tone bluesy.

rph08 · 20 December 2021, 11:40 AM

I’d go with a D-Blue, SD43, Sub Date or GMT
