Blueberry GMT - 1970s version vs possible 2016 version?

[Jeffreyc]

Hey - Longtime lurker first time poster. When I first saw all the posts regarding a Blueberry GMT I took it with a grain of salt. Thought it was cool looking but figured Rolex would most likely bring back a colored/multi colored bezel that had already been done before in the past, albeit in aluminum, like the Coke or the Rootbeer.

But then I did some research and it seems in 1978 or so Rolex did produce a black dialed blue bezel Rolex GMT and called it the "Blueberry". They seem to be rare. Unless someone just created a frankenwatch in the 19703 with a non-rolex blue bezel?

But, the pictures on the internet when you enter "blueberry rolex gmt" bring up images of some rare vintage pieces.

I haven't seen anyone actually point this out in the posts....but wanted to put it out there that at least in the past...Rolex did produce the GMT with a blue bezel so producing a newer version in 2016 with multi colors of blue wouldn't seem so out of the ordinary even though they still have other color combos like Coke and Rootbeer to do modern versions of as well.

Thanks.
