Thought it would be fun to see how these fare against each other if they were both available.

brandrea · 21 March 2016, 10:50 PM

Great poll idea Neil

I voted for the ceramic Daytona. Many here might agree that the bi coloured Pepsi bezel just doesn't quite hit the mark, with th colours being slightly "off" from the original. For me that's the main reason.

Cheers Brian a fun idea I thought, and if Rolex and the new CEO are really listening then if the BLRO fares really well here... who knows...

Awesone Neil!!! Wouldn't that be a doozy ...

I would get both as I couldn't just get one ....

BTW... I voted for BLRO ... As I travel with
my business all the time !
Though both would be the target eventually ...

I like it...you are a driver of change!

If the BLRO came in SS, I'd have owned it upon release and paid list price without much argument.

Against the new Daytona? Tough one...I do love the 116500 in black but a big fan of the GMTs...only reason I don't have a BLRO is cost in gold...I am going to go with "cross that bridge if I ever get there."

How's that for a non-answer? Maybe I should be a politician

Brexit politics has gone medieval round here.

landroverking · 21 March 2016, 10:52 PM

Not going to be a SS Pepsi IMHO.

GB-man · 21 March 2016, 10:55 PM

I voted daytona because I have had two ss gmts already and zero daytonas. I would def buy both though.

Sublovin · 21 March 2016, 10:56 PM

Im confused...they just announced a ceramic ss Daytona?

But the BLRO is not available in Steel just white gold, he's seeing if both were available in steel which you'd prefer. Daytona for me.

it early for some and coffee is needed

Rolex Freak · 21 March 2016, 11:21 PM

I voted DC.

jrs146 · 21 March 2016, 11:29 PM

Hummm tough choice. I'd day SS Daytona. But really only because there are no other SS options with the same look. It's possible to pick up a Pepsi if you really wanted. Not ceramic... But a similar look.

I voted Daytona as I would probably buy the BLNR again if I was in the market for a ceramic GMT.

jbenjamin1 · 21 March 2016, 11:31 PM

I just made it a tie with my vote. SS BLRO at current BLNR price :D

kilyung · 21 March 2016, 11:39 PM

I voted 116500 because an 116719BLRO is already in my future. If not, I'd vote for a fantasy 116710BLRO.

alika · 22 March 2016, 12:06 AM

116500. I'm super happy with my BLNR.

Flex368 · 22 March 2016, 12:08 AM

RONR please.

watchwatcher · 22 March 2016, 12:11 AM

I voted BLRO...although I would get both. Just a matter of which first.

daytona

FTX I · 22 March 2016, 12:18 AM

I voted Daytona 'cause nothing beats a black oil pool on the wrist.

sea-dweller · 22 March 2016, 01:42 AM

DaytonaC!

japenney · 22 March 2016, 02:02 AM

I voted BLRO because I've been considering one for quite some time. If I get it I won't be able to afford the SS Daytona on release. If both were in SS and I could only have one I would choose the GMT as it is more practical and has functions I need. I would be easily get both tho . if I could only have two Rolex right now it would be GMT and Daytona for sure.

Lordofrolex · 22 March 2016, 02:17 AM

daytona

Roll the Lex · 22 March 2016, 02:26 AM

Blro- like the splash of color

tkerrmd · 22 March 2016, 02:34 AM

good question Neil, I am a Daytona man! and not a fantasy anymore!

lamnyc · 22 March 2016, 02:36 AM

I would only get the BLRO when Rolex gets the color correct.

BNA/LION · 22 March 2016, 04:57 AM

SS DaytonaC

SearChart · 22 March 2016, 05:08 AM

Daytona because I like it better and it would fit me better also.
