Always thought the old Pepsis looked good on a jubilee. I am in the rare minority of WIS that finds the BLNR has zero appeal to me. Not something I would ever buy, so I vote Red & Blue!

Pepsi, because The Dark Knight doesn't wear women's bracelets.

The option neither is missing. I would vote for that.

I really don’t know.....I was never a huge fan of the BLNR on oyster, but now on jubilee, it looks so so goooood (to me).

Ideally, I could compare the two in person. I know that’s never going to happen.

BLNR for me. I missed out on obtaining the original BLNR with oyster bracelet when the 3186 was the premier (and only) caliber available in the Rolex GMT line. Since I find the new movement to be a significant upgrade, I was unwilling to purchase the first generation BLNR knowing that other GMTs existed with an upgraded movement. I’m now very glad that I made this choice.

I feel like this latest release is an excellent choice for someone who doesn’t have a BLNR already:
1. Attractive yet conservative color combination (no pink or purple hue like the Pepsi)
2. Longer power reserve
3. Comfortable and attractive jubilee bracelet

Although the first generation BLNR may fetch a higher price on the secondary market, I’m not concerned. The second generation appears to be a superior watch; I even prefer the jubilee based on style alone.

If I could pick one on jubilee? It would be the BLRO.

I voted BLRO as I think it suits jubilee perfectly. But to be fair to them both I need to see BLNR in person.
