If you have the idea to own only one GMT MASTER, go for the Pepsi. If you have in mind the possibility to own more than one, go for the Batman, first. ;) You can't go wrong!
Rolex GMT MASTER Black Blue or Pepsi. How do you like it?
I must say that, if you have the Oyster Bracelet on both of them, I strongly hesitate. The Black Blue has the advantage of the original chromatic combination, the Pepsi is more " historical ". If I had to choose between these two, exactly as pictured abov...
sorry, very unclear with those symbols
1. Oyster Pepsi 2. Oyster Bat 3. Jubilee Pepsi but foremost GMT TT
saw the Batman on oyster yesterday evening as well
could have even added it to the blue SD as well as the AD with in a giving mood (except the PP) but it is not my color combination
This is a truly delicious dilemma if you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to make a choice!
I used to be a strictly Oyster man, but seeing my wifeās love for her 36mm DJ on Jubilee I am now not so sure!!!
if it is Pepsi bezel I prefer meteorite...so in steel Batman !
but neither of them are sold by Rolex I suppose ;-)
I dont see any "modern" in your question.
Nonetheless IMHO yours is The ultimate GMT regardless of colour, vintage or modern. So powerful and so lavish.
Between the Batman and Pepsi if I had to pick only one, irregardless of the bracelet my choice is the Pepsi. However, having both currently I would say each one has its own personality and represent great companions!
I also have to take a picture of the Batman on the jubilee which I tried and liked. ...
I used to prefer the pepsi
But I would probably opt for the batman on jubilee right now
I had them both, but my eternal love goes to the Batman. Pilots watch = air = blue...
But the lefty is a strong second. Not a jubilee fan myself...š¤·š»āāļø ...
In a perfect world Pepsi on oyster
But it will have to be Batman if weāre sticking with current choices
Pepsi with jubilee for me
The Batman is a lovely watch, but the Pepsi combo just works for me.D
What can I say?
For me Pepsi over Batman. I like the history of the color scheme as well as the splash of red. I could choose between oyster and jubilee and fell for the latter. I generally prefer the oyster over the jubilee for my Rollies, but in this case I found itās ...
Between those 2, i choose the BLRO
For the non-traditional GMT I would pick destro green lantern instead of batman. (I don't like batman).
Pepsi + jubilee š¤
Is the perfect combo for my modern gmt rolex. I used to be a oyster bracelet guy when judging from photos/advertisement, but in flesh jubilee is shiny, beautiful and comfortable to wear š» ...
As the GMT is my preferred line,
I own all variants, and both bracelets, own the Batman, Pepsi, WG, but since early May this won 80% of my wrist time... (next time I'll show the oyster style ) ...
Pepsi for me, please
Hope to add one for my semicentennial in the very near future. Fingers crossed.
Hello dear Nicolas! I feel they have different personalities:
The Batman is more elegant and refined & under the radar. The Pepsi more traditional, sporty and aggressive. I usually prefer Oysters in my Rolex but I love the looks of Jubilee on the GMT (and it is so comfortable!) My choice: GMT Pepsi with Jubilee!...
I find your description Abel to be bang on regarding the difference between the Batman and the Pepsi!
I always thought I would want to sell my Batman once I received my Pepsiā¦but I like them both exactly for the reason you mentionned!
Thank you Yacomino. I have been thinking a lot about the Batman and arrived to the idea that it has a place in my collection though IĀ“m reserving its purchase for a future as there are...
... some priorities in my wish list. I feel you do well in keeping and enjoying both of them in your collection! Cheers, Abel
I agree! Not to mention if I sell it and most likely regret it then it takes me back to try getting another one with the waiting list, which will take the spot of other Rolex reference I am trying to get :-))
Since my dealer is kind of preferring to only work on one reference at a time for his customer, I'll keep what I have!
I always considered myself an āoyster manā
ā¦ but have to admit the Pepsi looks fine in the jubilee. I would take the pepsi jubilee over the dark knight!
Batgirl is it
One cannot go wrong with any of the available options but if I could choose, I pick the Bleu Noir with the Jubilee bracelet.
I wonāt chose Nico, they are both exceptional Rolexes that pull at my sensibilities š
I fully understand your BLNR attraction! The watch, as I said in a recent thread, is perfect. The all white dial writing, the blued 24hr hand, the bezel. Each element combines into a flawless whole. A whole that is a joy to wear. A joy Iām certain you wou...
Reviving an old thread
I have a choice between Pepsi or Batman. I prefer the Jubilee bracelet. Does anyone who replied to this thread have any newer thoughts as to preference? Canāt make up my mind - first world problems! Thanks.
