Incoming BLRO - My 2nd GMT Master II
After wearing CHNR Rootbeer for months, got my 2nd GTM Master II - BLRO. The blue / red ceramic bezel is impressive and the jubilee bracelet on wrist is very comfortable.



Just want to share my joy here and hope everyone get yours soon!

I like both, it’s just different. The rootbeer’s warmer tone is sort of match the mood for coffee, cigar or whisky.

I have both also and, although they share the same name, they are so different it's incredible.

I have both, Pepsi edges it as root beer isn’t an everyday throw on. It’s more a night out- wedding kind of watch. Pepsi really is an everyday as the more muted later models make it less blingy than a Batman.

I worry about scratching my root beer and it’s very noticeable but it’s lovely

I don’t have issue wearing rootbeer with causal outfit (might be I’m old enough to carry lol)

And true, I got few scratches on the RG part of the bracelet.

Yea the jubilee is very comfortable. I have my DJ41 on jubilee and I can swear it’s my most comfortable watch in the stable. I’m waiting for my 2nd GMT Master II too, hopefully by next year!

Agreed and I guess that’s why Rolex tried to offer a choice of bracelet for GMT. Will you choose jubilee or oyster for your GMT? Anyway, wish you get yours very soon!

Tough choice. I like my BLNR as it is, which is on oyster. But for the BLRO definitely going for jubilee to add some variety. Thanks for your wishes.
