None available at Houston Rolex boutique at the Galleria Mall yesterday's check. I was told several custumers on call if and when they get it...

Seen none in any ADs so far including mine who has every watch sitting there including the BLNR and Platona, no BLRO
But you can order one and get it in a few weeks

Wore the BLRO... Pretty cool..
I visited the South Coast Plaza Rolex Boutique and tried on the white gold GMT Red/Blue.

The white gold is much warmer and slightly less blingy as polished stainless. The ceramic bezel has relatively muted red/blue colors and when combined with the muted white gold, works wonderfully when wrapped into one watch.

Weight was lighter than my DSSD and the Platona.

I am already trying to figure out how I can finance/fund this watch. Without question, would be good to have. The ceramic bezel is tough to produce (and the reason why it is only available in white gold to keep it rare).

If you get a chance to wear it, do it.

I really want to see those lugs 'polished'. They look unfinished to me, especially on an all gold watch. The Milgauss is a 'tool' watch with polished lugs. The Daytona is a 'tool' watch with polished lugs. It would offset the polished/brushed bracelet perfectly.

Precious metal subs and gmt all have unpolished lugs. I doubt rolex will change that.

I saw it in the flesh at my preferred AD yesterday. I, for one, could not tell the difference between WG and SS just by looking at it. But it is a beautiful watch.

Unfortunately, the WG Pepsi is priced for my car budget and not my watch budget. I am one winning lottery ticket away from buying it.
