Icon1 VOTE! BLRO or BLNR on Jubilee?

After today's release, if you could pick just one GMT on Jubilee which one would it be?

BLRO. A lot of ppl calling Batman on Jubilee the Batgirl. Think the original will be more valuable in the long run.

BLNR

I like black and blue better than pink and purple.

None of the above? Jubilee looks best on datejust and dressier watches

I like both on Jubilee. If I had to choose, it would be the BLRO because I'm a big fan of the original Pepsi.

I agree that the Jubilee band belongs on a dressier watch like A DJ or a DD.

I was not an Oystersteel guy until I got a Sub C. That changed my outlook.

My choice is none of the above.

I’m on a short waiting list for a BLRO and and am looking forward to the call. I’ve never been a BLRN fan on the oyster but really like it on the jubilee. I’m not afraid to say the new BLRN is a head turner, & has me second guessing the BLRO. I also feel everyone’s dissatisfaction with the 2019 release is unfounded. Rolex is starting with an already Impressive lineup & to create something mind blowing ever year is almost impossible.

I’ve got the BLNR on oyster. It’s currently on a superjubilee. I’d trade it for a Pepsi on jubilee if I didn’t have a 16710.

BLNR for me.
Love the blue.

BLRO a bit too purple/pink for me.

Most probably have no chance at either watches, but for fun I vote for the BLRO

I don’t like either on Jubilee but BLNR is most tolerable. Never been a BLRO fan

VOTE! BLRO or BLNR on Jubilee?

Funny reading all the comments about “Pepsi the original” or “Pepsi is classic” GMT!

Yet this logic doesn’t apply for the SubC LV, which isn’t original or classic to the Sub, which is the LN!

I own the 116710 BLNR and I called my AD to get on the list for the New jubilee BLNR. So there’s my answer!

Black and Blue makes more sense as GMT colors and much nicer and versatile than pink and purple!

FYI, Incase someone didn’t know, the original GMT came on oyster and NOT jubilee bracelet.
