GMT coke SS vs. BLNR!!
Assuming rolex launches a SS version of the coke bezel sometime(they launch a new version every 5-6 years)!
Would you favor the GMT coke over the BLNR!??? For the ones who argue Rolex will/ can launch it this year at the assumption that they launched the all gold version of GMT Pepsi right after BLNR(2014 and 2013 consecutively) I would say you are comparing apples to oranges! But I've been mistaken many times in the past Nidal |

Absolutely...
I've never really warmed up to the black and blue bezel.

That would be a tough choice for me...the BLNR is stellar and one of the best looking in the lineup. I do love the coke though. It would probably be a coin toss haha.

I like the look of the coke. I'd like the BLNR more if it came with brushed links.

I'd find a way to afford a new Coke bezel ceramic GMT. But I'd keep the older one I just added to my small collection.
Red and black just does something for me. The BLNR is nice for sure, nonetheless if I had a choice the Coke. Of course Rolex has to make it first. |

I was having dreams about the new coke, I even picked out a distress simple ecru stitching chocolate brown leather strap for it.

Depends on if they can get the shade of red right on the ceramic. I am not fond of the blue on the BLNR nor the cranberry color on the WG Pepsi.

I really enjoy my BLNR. I have been thinking about a coke also. I think I would keep the BLNR and find a preowned coke on a Jubilee.

It looks nice - but I'm hoping for a SS Skydweller this year.

Coke all the way!! The ceramic bezel would make it difficult to resist picking one up if Rolex makes it!

BLNR for me because I love blue but that Coke does look very cool too. I have the BLNR so don't know if I would add the coke. Probably not. I think I am happy as I am
