I see the light- the SS BLRO

This watch hasn’t left the wrist. This is now my favorite SS watch (although my SDc has a lot of sentimental value so that will always be a keeper).

I also think it’s a great alternative that the Oyster fits on this, but the jubilee really is awesome, and I cannot see myself wanting to change it up. Maybe, just maybe, if I take this on an extended beach vacation the Oyster would make more sense. Time will tell...

In any event - Rolex really nailed it with this one. It’s the whole package, not just the bezel, the SS, or the jubilee. Together, it all works perfectly.

Congrats on your new watch, great pics by the way. It’s nice to hear your loving the Jubilee too. I’m hoping mine will land soon, it’ll be my first watch on the Jubilee and I’m so pro the oyster so nice to know it works well for you. Enjoy that very lovely watch of yours.

After seeing your pics , I'm really liking this BLRO , already on the list at my AD , they're getting one next week ( confirmed by the manager) but owner is keeping it, so will have to wait.

Looks perfect with the jubilee and a nice change up from the Oyster which is on 99% of all my Rolex. Congrats again my man and looks amazing!

Congratulations on your amazing looking SS BLRO! You are certainly one of the lucky ones. I truly wonder if anyone will still buy a new WG BLRO given the price differential (?). Enjoy and wear your Pepsi in good health. Cheers!
