Incoming BLROs

Some new. Some old. Some Rolex. One Tudor. All Pepsi.

Never really had the opportunity to compare all of the Pepsis until today. Approximately $50K worth of watches coming together here.

Tried to pair them together and all at once, so that you can see how they all compare. Colors are interesting. The 1675 and 16710s are brilliant blue and red. The Tudor and latest BLRO are much darker in comparison. Almost like cherry vs blood.

Pictures taken at dust with soft, even lighting outside.

Enjoy.

Incoming BLROs

Great shots! Although I’m a big fan on the 6 digit Rolex cases, if I had to go the BLRO route - the 16710 is the obvious winner in my eyes!

In terms of just looks I like the 1675.

In terms of function I like the 126710BLRO.

Daily beater I like the Tudor.

I would have a hard time choosing but I think I'm in agreement with you... Only if you had to twist my arm though. I would take any of them in a heartbeat. I'll have to be happy with just the BLNR (for now).
