Do you prefer a superhero or drink?
Just throwing it out there. If you could choose only one, would it be a Batman or Pepsi SS on Oyster?

For me always Batman, but I like it better on jubilee. I am one of those crazy guys that doesn’t really like the Pepsi. Not a big fan of red, especially on a Rolex. It’s a big commitment to red!

Not a fan of the jubilee myself but hey, if my AD gives me one I do not mind at all. The batman is so subtle with the black/blue bezel that's why I like it so much. However, the pepsi is also really nice. Red does stand out and maybe attracts more attention. It is definitely a hard decision.

I just want the jubilee to mix it up. Truth be told I love the oyster and the polished center links on the GMT. The Batman to me is so perfect. The black and blue, man! The blue just enough to add some color, the best blue color Rolex makes in my opinion. Can wear it anywhere. Love it.

100% agree. Just did a comparison on both of them and it looks like the shade of blue is a bit different on both. The batman blue is far better IMO.

Likewise and without the childlike nicknames.

Same, although I personally have a distinct preference for the Oyster on the BLNR.

The iconic BLRO--and I am fortunate to own both. Just something about the historic BLRO!
And thank you Peter, always enjoy your comments!
