If they gave the new movement to the BLNR at the same time, it might have stolen some of Pepsi's limelight.

If Rolex decided to upgrade the BLNR and/or LN would they be released at Baselworld or would this be a quieter update?

If I was Rolex, I would probably release the upgraded movements for the BLNR/LN at next year's Baselworld. Also, if my theory is correct, that would explain why there is confusion regarding whether or not the BLNR/LN are being discontinued. The answer would be "yes" and "no" and so people arguing both sides of the issue would be correct. The black and blue/noir bezel options would remain with no interruption but the model could be upgraded and potentially even receive a new model number. Perhaps at the moment they're just selling through the inventory they've already produced. Now on to a more pressing issue... what new GMT bezel color combos will be available at next year's Basel 2019? Will we see a Mountain Dew (green/red), a Fanta (orange), Sprite (green/yellow), or TaB (pink), haha?
