Rolex Event

Got to see the new releases in person at my local Boutique. All very nice, but this one is amazing. Pics don’t do it justice. Also, I’m on the list for both the SS Pepsi and the TT.....was told 3 months.....(yea right) If the time comes and I have to choose, it will be a tough decision.

Fun side story......I wore my 16710 Coke on Jubilee to the event which got a lot of attention. Everyone around wanted a side by side with the new SS Pepsi so I had a watch on each wrist and people taking pics. Also, there was a reporter there from a local magazine and they took pics of both watches and will use it in the article. Pretty cool event.

I completely agree with you on the root beer, I have seen the videos of the Basel world watch journalists, every face I saw was stunned when they saw the watch and became speechless, and these journalist handle 1,000 watches a year .......I was stunned. It is a superstar.

The CHNR will be hot, that's for sure. It might be just as hard to get as the BLRO given how positively it's being received.

Seems that the 16710 received about as much attention as the new releases - love it!

I asked the photographer if there was a way to get a copy and he told me they will be using the pic in the magazine and online. When it’s published, I’ll take screenshot and post it.
