If this came in SS, would you prefer it to the new Pepsi?
At first glance, it looks like a Coke bezel to me......maybe I should start a new thread

The new "oystersteel" GMT on jubilee is a pass for me. 1) the bezel colors still aren't right 2) I will never wear an Old Man jubilee bracelet. So I guess my wallet thanks Rolex?

It's not bad, but I'm not wowed by it either. I'm happy with my 16710 and BLNR. I may add it one day as I love GMTs, but not gonna go crazy on a list or paying premiums secondary. If it was on an oyster, it may have changed things for me.
To those who like it, good luck navigating the lists for a few years. I'm looking forward to the future incomings. |

I agree, the jubilee bracelet doesn't do it for me, I think it takes away from the sport look. It now looks like the watch is confused between sport watch and dressy watch. I will stick with the Oyster bracelet on my Batman

Love it, I would have prefered a coke, but I don’t Have a Pepsi and I have been thinking about getting the white gold blro for a while, but I generally don’t like gold and never liked the Batman. This is great. I just texted my AD. Getting one for sure. I also love the rose gold, really nice. Well done Rolex.

I presume the old SS oyster bracelet will be a different fitting to this Jubilee??

The jubilee look is not for everyone I must admit, this design was first introduced with the Datejust back in 1945. I think the new bracelet make the GMT look to busy especially with all the numbers on the bezel. I would have to take a look up close for a final determination on whether I like it or not.
I am in contact with my AD as well, good question, can the jubilee be swapped with the oyster??? |

Yep. BLNR is going to take a hit as well whether people want to admit it or not. |

A new plus with the new GMTs, they now come with the new 3285 movement with 70 hr power reserve.

I agree with this. As currently styled it's no longer a "one watch" option. Too fussy without an oyster bracelet and the Pepsi bezel ... those colors in bright light just look terrible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Like it, but would have liked an option for oyster bracelet. I think the root beer is gorgeous! I also like the WG blue dial. So far a few configurations speak to me. Need to try on the jubilee to see if I like it or not.

Makes me wonder if that will be the case though, there's still a big demand for the BLNR. I see prices on the grey market for up to 12k, and with no papers and box for 9k +. We shall see, only time will tell.

I just received word from my AD, we will not be able to swap the jubilee bracelet with the oyster. I am not sure whether if it's because it will not fit or Rolex will not swap it for us on demand. Question still remain on that front. |
