Not in a million years.

Add?

Sure, but I'd shoot for a late 90s/early 2000s with lug holes and SELs.

No, I much prefer the 6 digit watches. No comparison imho.

100% yes, the 5 digit Pepsi was possibly the best watch in the Rolex lineup - which possibly explains the soaring prices.

Yes for the new SS GMT BLRO but not for any 5-digit GMTs.

I would say yes, but only because I own one and think they are fantastic. But so is that hulk. As others have said, add if you can. Otherwise, I’d probably add with a view to offloading one once I’d had time to have both on the wrist. Unlikely you’d lose much on either in the interim....

I personally wouldn’t, but I wouldn’t blame someone that did. Both are incredible.

Own and love both, but if I had to only have one, it would be the GMT. Classic.

Ill add I think .... Just have to pay for it with that paper stuff instead ... I would only miss the Hulk if it went ... I don’t know if I’d even swap for the new GMT Pepsi ! Loved it when I first saw it ,but I still lean towards the classic , all be it without the lug holes .
Great forum . Thanks

With the way value wise right now....it'd have to be a really nice complete set for it to make sense.....I would choose a 16710 over lvc as a one and only watch but it's a tough decision......

Right back at you if you want "informed" opinions. What else do you own in Rolex?

I wouldn't trade it for the new Pepsi and certainly not the old one.
