Very nice, welcome to the club

sensui · 18 January 2020, 12:33 PM

That's a tough one these days apparently. Congrats.

BNA/LION · 18 January 2020, 12:38 PM

CONGRATULATIONS!

scombs263 · 18 January 2020, 02:47 PM

Wow. Congratulations. Such an awesome watch. Wish I would get my call for one.

Or ... there’s no such thing as MK1 MK2 MK3, just different colors throughout the production run.

I hope that’s the case, and that Rolex didn’t decide MK1 was what they were going for in terms of colors, because I hope to be receiving mine in a couple months. I would seriously consider passing if its the pink/purple hues of the MK1....I much prefer the deep red and dark blue of the MK3

In the same boat and I couldn’t agree with you more.

I couldn’t agree more. I’m hoping to get one in the next few months and I’m going to be real sad if it’s pink/purple.

However, congrats, OP! It’s still a gorgeous piece!

Congrats! absolutely love the jubilee band on this watch!

Walts · 19 January 2020, 04:35 AM

Congratulations Beautiful watch , In your comparison picture the colors appear deeper and richer when compared to your original picture . More like the MK 3 version . was your original pic overexposed?

Thanks, the original photo was shot in direct sunlight as a Camera RAW image, converted to JPG, and then resized in order to fit on The Forum.

When the photo software "Fixes" one thing, it generally distorts something else. In this case, maybe the color is not true.

Here's the way an iPhone sees it.

Not true ....all of them can look pink and purple in some lighting. It's all about the lighting

Congratulations

TickTockChuck · 19 January 2020, 11:01 AM

Wow! Congratulations on your great looking Pepsi BLRO. I've yet to actually see one first hand, so l find these discussions on color variations amusing and probably just an effect of the light. Wear it in good health. Cheers!
