Next thing you'll tell me is there's a new Yacht-Master.

All our blood, sweat, tears, and typing all day ripping apart RPR...just so we can now get individual threads covering each of the images.

Today was a terrible day at work full of procrastination. I blame RPR for that too

put it this way, if RPR is right, Rolex has a major leak and they should be a little upset.

If RPR is wrong, he is going to look pretty stupid.

Right now I would flip a coin on the rumor speculation. Tmw (< 12 hrs) is the day of reckoning.

I think the watch is same w.r.t. the bezel and case. Would welcome the jubilee option and the 72-hour power reserve.

It stands to reason if this is real, they'll be using the same case as the SS Pepsi, which as we know wasn't perceptibly different from the previous-gen case.

Doesn't matter to me..

I will never buy a professional timing device that is referred to as a comic book character.

I would love for someone to take a laser to the BLNR and BLRO cases to measure what the actual difference is. It doesn't stand out to my naked eye.

Hey Mister...

Can we have our ball back?

I hear ya Larry...I’m not a fan of nicknames either. However, I also refuse to jump through hoops to buy a mass-produced Watch.

Exactly! Why would Rolex change case for one model of a series under current production? Besides, there is nothing wrong with current design.

It's a bit tongue-in-cheek. Dumb nicknames aside, I have never warmed up to the block-case, too blingy newer models.
