Any chance it was the white gold one and it was 27000 Euro and the 2 was missing?

Agreed, a Batman won’t be sitting in a case at CDG.

Has no one solved this yet?!? Personally in the camp that he missed the 2 in front of 7000 and it’s the WG BLRO

Maybe he saw a $ instead of a 3, so it's 37,000 instead of $7000 and a WG Pepsi, makes sense to me.

A price in US Dollars at a Paris airport makes absolutely no sense at all.

How is this thread 4 pages long for a piece of absolute BS. Prices at CDG will be in euros, it wasnt the new BLRO, and it certainly wasnt a WG so its clearly a mistake, 17,000 sounds about right though

Following all day, this thread has become its own amazing entity

I’m in the BLNR camp, is it really possible that we will never get to know the truth...? I can’t help but think this needs a poll

I'm pretty sure it was WG Pepsi with price sticker 27K (excluding all taxes) in euro currency.

Just came from CDG, the Rolex shop is as empty as all other shop world wide.

No BLRO neither old nor new, same old standard date just and other crap.

Maybe I arrived too late, but the seller there doesn’t recall seeing a Pepsi in the last days.

That was 6 hours ago.

There's multiple terminals in CDG , and at least 4 different Rolex shops in various terminals. You need to visit the right one ... OP was in terminal 2E

OK. I had enough of this and just call in Rolex shop in CDG Terminal 2E. Spoke with Julia saleswomen. She said that they haven't or had any GMT Pepsi in store SS or WG. However they have Root Beer currently in store. But the price is 12.9k(if flight inside EU) and 11.2k (outside EU)

Thanks for making the call. Was looking forward to checking back into this thread this morning

Somehow, I still don't feel satisfied. Is the CHNR the answer here? Still doesn't explain the mysterious [ ]7,000 claim.

Maybe it was a Patek 5711 in the Rolex shop

Or was it an AP 15202?

I wonder....

Do they have any champagne or only root beer? If I'm flying all the way to Paris for a watch they'd better break out the good stuff.
