Rolex will tell people what looks good, and people will go along with it. Don't believe me, get out your old photo album and look at what you used to wear.

I like that the BLNR is the first bi-color ceramic bezel. It will always hold that place in history

Sunburst green dial on the LV is amazing in Rolex signature color

Sure, I get it. I'm not saying they're not cool. I'm just saying that advertising is the art of manipulating people's paradigms of their likes, wants, and needs.

First ever sunburst dial on a SS Submariner as well. As much importance as Rolex collectors place on small changes, these I think will do very well in long-run and become very collectable.

Great thing is Rolex offers LN versions as well for those that want that. Explorer series if you don't want Ceramic. And the Oyster Perpetual or Tudor if you want to save a little money.

My thoughts exactly. I believe that's quite possible.

I'm a sucker for green, but not sure Rolex would go for this look on the GMT

LOL, the reactions were similar when the BLNR first came out. A few weeks later it started growing on people and now it is one of the most popular models. Interesting how human mind works ;-)

Ouch.........but then again, I'm not a fan of The Hulk or the Sub with the green bezel.

VicLeChic · 20 March 2018, 04:48 AM

I like green but it's too polarizing and tends to be reserved for anniversary editions (DD, Daytona, Sub).
