Just curious...
Feels like people usually say the daytona is really long but what is the time for the pepsi.

tng11 · 23 April 2019, 11:32 AM

Depends on your AD. At some it could be available right away if you buy a DD40. But absent an existing relationship, 50 years.

I got mine with a 2 month wait. Expressed interest in mid-January, I picked it up in March.

My AD has said that their Pepsi deliveries this year have been good so far. SS 116500 is harder to get by a large margin.

Soarer · 23 April 2019, 12:20 PM

I think Pepsi might ease up even more now that Batman on jubilee is released.

Syed117 · 23 April 2019, 01:37 PM

Been waiting over a year.

Not a big deal. It'll happen when it's supposed to.

roznalos · 23 April 2019, 01:38 PM

At least a couple of years here in SF Bay Area. That is what the rep told me a couple of weeks back.

inadeje · 23 April 2019, 01:44 PM

Frankly, I have given up trying. Prefer my 16710 anyway...

Could easily just pull the trigger on a grey but it’s against my principles

kirksingleton · 23 April 2019, 02:20 PM

I had a friend walk into the boutique in Maui last week and walked out with a new one.

Maverick_1908 · 23 April 2019, 02:27 PM

No waitlist at my nearest vending machine.

Most ADs have one in the back, waiting to bundle

Kliminator · 23 April 2019, 02:49 PM

All of the bundling talk is essentially the AD saying you need to buy both pieces at retail (no discount), correct?

Batmannr1 · 23 April 2019, 03:11 PM

Yep, buying a precious metal timepiece together with a in demand stainless steel sport model.

Xtralarg · 23 April 2019, 03:15 PM

No wait if you spend 50k on other stuff, a long one if you dont.

Exactly right next to the Daytona’s LVCs and blue skydwellers. Its the game they choose to play.

007timer · 23 April 2019, 04:07 PM

The display cases look really bad. I was at AD today in So Cal. The had nothing in SS, even the DJ40 in SS was gone. Just a couple of 36MM DJ and a lot of TT watches. The idea that they are hiding in the back is frustrating.

With regards to the wait list, I am told two years for BLRO and 5+ for Daytona

My wife and I were talking and she wanted to make sure we have a color corrected pepsi in the collection. Good to know people

Good luck everyone

Merkaholic · 23 April 2019, 08:08 PM

As I was told a few months ago........ If you buy either the skydweller in gold or Daytona in gold you can have the pepsi in 6 months....... Ummmmmmm no thanks. I said in that case i will buy both in 6 months.

I was going to let you know that I have no clue and don't care, but then I realized you probably know that I am clueless and you wouldn't care that I don't care, so I typed this instead.

enjoythemusic · 23 April 2019, 08:25 PM

Called Mayors seconds after it was announced. Bought two Rolex from them, had a friend buy the Pepsi Tudor from them too.

Still waiting....

Andad · 23 April 2019, 08:42 PM

Why not ring all the AD’s in your area and ask them.....then tell us.

Moggo · 23 April 2019, 09:33 PM

Will be delivered to me in the cemetery so I’ve been told!

Stainless are just sales incentives now I reckon. There’s no pretense that they’re actually a retail item.

brandrea · 23 April 2019, 10:42 PM

Longer than most would like, but we have seen a few recent incomings here, which hopefully is a sign of things to come

I’ve been waiting for about a year. I’m not hopeful I will get it anytime soon. What do you mean “color corrected”? Mark 2 bezel?

Ravager135 · 23 April 2019, 11:35 PM

No idea what the waitlist is like, but I expect it to ease somewhat. Right now the only two stainless steel GMT-Master IIs that Rolex makes both have bicolor ceramic bezels and both come on Jubilee bracelets. Both offerings are so similar that neither is really "special" compared to the other. This should make the wait decrease relatively speaking. In recent years, you had the BLNR which was the only GMT with a bicolor bezel making it the most desired model. Last year we had the BLRO which was unique due the Jubilee bracelet. I still think the BLRO will be slightly more favored due to the traditional bezel colors, but far less than it was.

Yes, it seems Rolex corrected the mistake for the bezel colors, thus we have MK2 now. Goes to show it's always better to wait instead of rushing in.

Is this known as fact though. People are still stating that it's really just different lighting. Do we know objectively that there is a difference in the bezel colors...?

I've been told some of the lists I'm on have been eliminated.
