Red Blue Gmt aka Spider-Man

Who else likes the nickname Spider-man or Superman better than Pepsi? It kind of makes more sense with Batman and Hulk in my opinion.

Also, Any recent Mark 3 bezel photos out there?

Pepsi is one of the only nicknames that doesn’t irritate me.

But Batman is DC and Hulk and Spider Man are Marvel...

Plus only Batman would wear a watch and can afford to buy one, Hulk is too big and smashes stuff and Spider Man is a financially strapped kid.

I think Pepsi is fine. It’ll go nicely with the coke when it’s released (hopefully)

Nicknames I sometime wonder if the Rolex watch forum is changing into some kindergarten group for 3-4 years old children.

If you are a real Rolex enthousiast just use the official names and/or learn the reference numbers because those stupid nicknames are for the social media "watch people".

If a nickname must be used, stay with Pepsi as it is gender neutral. We must stop using misogynistic nouns such as spiderman or superman.

Must be a slow Friday when you can come up with the dumbest idea on TRF.
Really, wish I had a trophy to hand out
Is BLRO not available today, who here doesn’t know what watch is a BLRO, goodness gracious.

The way they scream and cry when we pushback against these stupid nicknames, I would say yes.

In point of fact Pepsi is a derogatory nickname for Quebec Francophones because of their overwhelming preference for Pepsi over Coke.

Well, apparently the Golden Shower (now Serti Dial Sub Date) got a name change in the 80s, so why not the Pepsi?

Go Spidey!!!
