Incoming !!

Dear Friends
Got a call today from my AD on Pepsi BLRO... will pick tomorrow
I refused one time in 2018 and then kept thinking about It

I have root beer / black ceramic Daytona 500/ and BLNR GMT (oyster bracelet)

I accepted the offer .... will pick tomorrow.

Thinking to at least get it now and later may be sell Batman or root beer

What do you guys think ???

I think that’s a good plan, the BLRO is pretty special and I prefer it to the other GMT options. Congrats in advance!

Congratulations! Our collections are very similar. I wouldn’t sell any of those if I got the call for the BLRO.

Interesting... I would free your BLNR and keep the Root Beer. I’m dying to get a Root Beer.

Congrats and enjoy your new watch! Post a picture tomorrow when you can so we can see it. I went to my AD yesterday, not after a SS model, but they took my name down for the next yacht master on OF that comes in.

If your style is to collect multiple GMT watches, then keep all three. Otherwise so many great watches out there whether Rolex or other brands.

I think the BLRO is a special GMT along with the root beer. Get rid of the BLNR.

If you really have to, I'd say let the Batman go and keep the root beer!

I'd personally choose that over anything else in your collection even though they're all great watches.

I would keep the GMTs. The only missing would be the all-black GMT to round up your collection.
