Is there a link or review in detail yet?

I'm a happy Gen. 1 owner and not sure I like Batman's "diet".
It may be awhile before any of us see one in person.

Thanks in advance.

New dial, new bracelet. What diet?

Bxtek · 21 March 2019, 11:44 AM

Diet??

Navarino · 21 March 2019, 11:47 AM

I am guessing the "diet" refers to the "redesigned" case with "slimmer" lugs.

Here is the link to the Hodinkee article with real photos.

The case is exactly the same as before. You guys keep regurgitating the same incorrect info.

I don’t believe it either, hence my use of quotations around the questionable claims people have been making. Only listed these because I was speculating what OP meant by “diet”.

It uses the same case as the 116710BLRO, which has tapered lugs. It’s been covered by the press a few times already.

I believe you meant 126710BLRO.

No it doesn’t. Have seen them side by side.

I think it was stated on Hodinkee as well that the case is slimmer

Too blingy for sport model. As for comfort: when I get older I will switch to more confortable shoes and, who knows, a more comfortable Jubilee bracelet

Etschell · 21 March 2019, 11:52 AM

I like it. Sharp looking watch.

gccmd · 21 March 2019, 11:57 AM

Nice watch but I still prefer it with the oyster bracelet. Not having the newer movement is something I don’t care about at all. I’m content with my older one.

Agree- very happy with my 2015 BLNR, much prefer oyster bracelet to Jubilee.

My Tudor North Flag has taught me to really love a 70 hour power reserve but I agree with you.

I much prefer my 2017 Batman BLNR on the oyster bracelet.

I’m really glad Rolex updated it, though, and made it available for all the people who want one.

Looks like my watch on super jubilee.

dennywags · 21 March 2019, 12:02 PM

Well, the two BLNRs that were on DavidSw website this morning are gone.

T-Bag · 21 March 2019, 12:07 PM

They are out there. Not a short run for the BLNR oyster. This is temporary. Even Ben Bridge had them in the case for several years

RL777 · 21 March 2019, 02:02 PM

The Jubilee does dress it up a bit however for day to day use I think the oyster bracelet works much better.

Robbyman · 21 March 2019, 02:17 PM

I prefer the Pepsi to the new Batgirl

You made me spew my coffee a little this morning. I’m sure we’ll here about disliked nicknames again.

Maybe Basel 2020 will give the LVc a jubilee if Rolex sees Chadri’s photos of it.

cattleman41 · 22 March 2019, 01:57 AM

I have a 2017 BLNR. May have to get a BLRO and switch the bracelets around as desired.

nypharm · 21 March 2019, 02:23 PM

I still prefer my original Batman. Not a fan of jubilee bracelet on sports watches. Happy I got mine for retail and since its my first Rolex. I will keep it forever.

rominvicta · 21 March 2019, 03:27 PM

Great Watch! Was, is and will be! Whether jubilee or oyster!

Frank McKay · 21 March 2019, 03:32 PM

I love it. Very sleek looking modern and robust Rolex Sports watch.

zjd168 · 21 March 2019, 03:48 PM

not a fan of jubilee BLNR, but since Rolex thinks this is a good idea, so I make one. Not too bad.
