Remember how the blog post suggested that young Zahid would probably be everyone's boss eventually? Maybe there's something to that, because that bezel combination would look infinitely better with a white dial (as HE DREW IT ORIGINALLY).

While I wouldn't personally wear one, I actually think the color combo works well on a TT/YG watch with white or silver dial, Jubilee bracelet and YG surrounds on the hour markers.

Why didn’t I think of this? It’s akin to all the super hero movies and fast & furious 23...they will keep churning them out as long as people keep spending money on them and they are laughing all the way to the bank.

Rolex could do the same thing and go crazy with colors and people would eat it up.

But they will never do that cause it would hurt the brand.

Got to understand the marketing genius at work.

It needs a while dial since Sprite is a clear soda!

If Rolex is taking orders on soda + GMT watches, I've always been partial to Barq's! But, I guess the black Exp2 fits that bill.

Bottom half of the bezel looks too puke colored.

The world would turn faster with a white dialed GMT II

I don't particularly like those colours, yet as a whole I find that watch very appealing. Weird.

Funny looking. Still better looking that most Richard Mille watches though.

Not a fan at all, although I agree with one of the comments from the article - it might look better with a white dial...still a hard pass for me.

Someone here figured out that if you search for the word “batman” or “pepsi,” on the Rolex official website, the BLNR or BLRO will appear respectively.
