... And for its cost. I heard that the bezel alone costs $12,000. That's why they made the gmt WG. It won't make any sense making it SS. Maybe in the future, the cost of the bezel will decrease and they can make a SS Pepsi. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think the only reason for the high cost is due to the WG bezel surround, not the actual sliver of ceramic. Sent from my iPhone 7 using Tapatalk |

Having had the LB, BLRN and now the BLRO, I voted blue/red. All good looking.

Pepsi, and then a very close second for the blnr.
But the old red Blue version. Not the pm raspberry purple colors they've gone with. The white gold is at the bottom of the list for me.

The Pepsi dial shades it for me, it's an icon, but the Batman is up there and a future classic. IMHO.

It's not so much the colors, but I love the cerachrome and the font of the engraved numerals. Given that, and my watch budget the only real option is the BLNR.
Having said that, I do lust over the BLRO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So few people know or have had a Root Beer that it won't rank high here but when you see that dial and bezel combo on a TT GMT II in person, you'd change some of your answers above.

From a traditional standpoint, its hard to argue the pepsi. The BLNR makes more sense color wise to me.

Pepsi is most popular, and the Coke is dead last
Interesting results so far |

This is purely subjective and depends on personal taste.
My favorite is either the all black or the new Grey/Black that was just introduced. To me the colored models just look cheap. |
