Sweet! Sure, a Pepsi bezel would have been better, but Rolex evidently isn't about throw-back watches like some other brands. So, at least there's some color here. Still wish the bracelet was all brushed, but for a modern Rolex, really nice.

Really like the blue hand - something different, yet subtle. Also, neither blue nor black "screams", so is pretty low key. Which, in my book, is good.

Its not bad looking but why the design incongruence? Why is the GMT text not colored? Why not a full blue bezel like classic? There is history for that, not this.

Looks great. I just wish Rolex would quit with the PCLs on sports watches.

Bruiser or Pepsi Max would work as well.

That's a fake. Never seen a blue bezel before.

Is this replacing the current one or on top of the black bezel?

Black and blue are my favorite colors as well as my school colors but this new watch doesn't wow me at all.

I don't think this black and blue bezel looks good. Would have been better if they kept the GMT hand blue though and also make the GMT lettering blue.
