So you can pick up the 126710 at retail 9k or so as long as you buy the WG Pepsi at retail?

I’m sure they would sell you the 126710 at retail if you buy another item besides the WG


Sea Dweller?

I would do my best to grab the 126710 at retail but not in lieu of paying retail for the WG

Personally I wouldn’t buy into a package deal if the other reference they are offering didn’t already interest me.
Yep, that's my thought, too.

Why? Those are entirely different watches.

Why anyone would pay anything at all for rickety old junk is far beyond me.

I’m sorry, I wouldn’t be extorted to pay retail for two, to get one. This silliness will cease soon enough and things will go back to normal.

Me , I would take all three and sell both the 116500 and the 126710 , keep the 116719 making it a cheap watch !

But then I don’t buy to flip but if that’s the only way the dealer wants to play , I’d say play the game. I also get it’s a lot off money to spend in one go and maynot be a option

I’d buy a Patek instead. ADs are out of their mind. In the end you are buying a steel entry level watch.

Don’t fall victim to the hype.

I bought a full rg chnr, to get a hold of the new Pepsi gmt. I’ll see which I keep. If you have interest in each watch, get both.

Why does everyone think there is going to be huge availability of BLRO’s in 2019?

I would get both BLROs if the AD offered a 15-20% discount on the WG and SS at MSRP.

Both are relatively rare and beautiful watches so I say you should do it. Don't worry about future values and wear them to enjoy!
