Jed already did that with one and John Buckley and Arthur did it with another. Different outcomes.

These are what they are. Some like them. Some don’t. I doubt anyone with come to a conclusion and they will remain pricey.

It's a stretch to believe the blueberry insert first appears in 2000 for a watch that went out of production in 1980. Buddy O my be onto something

It’s not a new discussion. They have been debated since they came on to the market.

I’m not sure why Ive seen no chatter anywhere in the internet about this, but….at the W&W booth this year Rolex had every GMT bezel ever made on display….there wasn’t a blueberry. Case
