Never in the wild.
Only at AD and it was a BLRO WG Meteroid dial. I want to say, GMT is not that common in China. HK, sometimes but I see Daytona and Sub a lots. |

Besides my own ceramic Pepsi that I wear a fair amount, I all tried on another at a watch gathering I planned with some core members.
Also, saw one on the wrist of the Porsche sales manager.

I never see Daytonas. Had black and now have the white dial. I can’t imagine I’d miss one. Usually 5 digit subs, datejusts or daydate.

Only once. March 2019 at a local AD in San Francisco while picking up my 116618 Submariner, a gentleman was waiting to pick up a watch and was wearing the GMT 126710BLRO.

BLRO like 3-4 times in Middle East. Mainly in the high end luxury places. Sprite one and Batman twice. And many subs. Never seen a Panda Daytona in the wild though yet. In Europe there is a lot less desirable Rolex’s in the wild so rarer to see. Anyone else experience similar ?

Have you seen a 126710BLRO in the wild?
Okay, I was wondering. When we visited Seattle, it seemed entirely devoid of luxury items. But admittedly, I’ve never been to the suburbs east of Lake Washington (e.g., Redmond, Bellevue areas). I’d imagine it’s different over there. Naples, on the other hand, is on the opposite end of the spectrum. Luxury cars and watches galore. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

None. A few 16710's and one BLNR at the grocery store after another customer noticed mine.

I've seen 4 in the wild in the past 4 years.
Saw one at an Atlanta Braves game. Saw one on a first-class passenger when boarding a flight. Saw one on a woman's wrist in a high-end shopping district. Saw one in the club section of Mercedez Benz Stadium. |

Just saw another last night at dinner.
An older woman was wearing it on a Jub. She saw me looking and pointed to my DD 40, smiled and gave me a thumbs up! I see a few Rolex models every day in my area.
