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?

 
 By: amanico : November 12th, 2022-10:26
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...  

This is my choice

Always oyster

 
 By: penfriend : November 12th, 2022-10:42
And then Pepsi. Second oyster šŸ¦‡

I am lost. Then Batman? :)

 
 By: amanico : November 12th, 2022-10:53

sorry, very unclear with those symbols

 
 By: penfriend : November 12th, 2022-13:34
1. Oyster Pepsi 2. Oyster Bat 3. Jubilee Pepsi but foremost GMT TT

saw the Batman on oyster yesterday evening as well

 
 By: penfriend : November 13th, 2022-14:56
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

Your AD is exceptional. ;)

 
 By: amanico : November 13th, 2022-15:29

This is a truly delicious dilemma if you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to make a choice!

 
 By: 777Dave : November 12th, 2022-10:42
I used to be a strictly Oyster man, but seeing my wifeā€™s 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 !

 
 By: mahesh : November 12th, 2022-11:16
but neither of them are sold by Rolex I suppose ;-)

Not a fair question. LOL

 
 By: Gelato Monster : November 12th, 2022-12:09
You have the most gorgeous red and blue galore.

Hahaha.! But no modern!

 
 By: amanico : November 12th, 2022-15:35

I dont see any "modern" in your question.

 
 By: Gelato Monster : November 12th, 2022-16:47
Nonetheless IMHO yours is The ultimate GMT regardless of colour, vintage or modern. So powerful and so lavish.

I used to prefer the pepsi

 
 By: andrea~ : November 12th, 2022-13:05
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...

 
 By: ZSHSZ : November 12th, 2022-13:14
But the lefty is a strong second. Not a jubilee fan myself...šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø ...

Pepsi jubilee for me

 
 By: TeutonicCarFan : November 12th, 2022-13:23
Oyster is for my sub IMO ...  

6-3 for the Pepsi, now.

 
 By: amanico : November 12th, 2022-16:13

In a perfect world Pepsi on oyster

 
 By: vallura : November 12th, 2022-14:30
But it will have to be Batman if weā€™re sticking with current choices

6-4 now. Thanks, Vallura.

 
 By: amanico : November 12th, 2022-16:14

7-6 for the Batman!

Pepsi with jubilee for me

 
 By: Drek : November 12th, 2022-16:09
The Batman is a lovely watch, but the Pepsi combo just works for me.D

What can I say?

 
 By: mrds : November 12th, 2022-16:35
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 itā€™s ...  

Between those 2, i choose the BLRO

 
 By: Gelato Monster : November 12th, 2022-17:08
For the non-traditional GMT I would pick destro green lantern instead of batman. (I don't like batman).

Pepsi + jubilee šŸ¤

 
 By: saintseiyaikki : November 12th, 2022-17:26
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 šŸ» ...  

As the GMT is my preferred line,

 
 By: MilDiver : November 12th, 2022-18:40
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 ) ...  

Easy.

 
 By: Lankysudanese : November 12th, 2022-18:42
Hope you are well ...  

11-9, now.

BLRO on Jubilee

Pepsi for me, please

 
 By: Saxon : November 12th, 2022-20:27
Hope to add one for my semicentennial in the very near future. Fingers crossed.

Hello dear Nicolas! I feel they have different personalities:

 
 By: Subexplorer : November 12th, 2022-22:17
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!...  

Un placer amigo mio! Buen Domingo!!

 
 By: Subexplorer : November 13th, 2022-14:25

A ti tambien, amigo mio.

 
 By: amanico : November 13th, 2022-15:35

Gracias!

 
 By: Subexplorer : November 14th, 2022-16:02

I find your description Abel to be bang on regarding the difference between the Batman and the Pepsi!

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 14th, 2022-00:30
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!

Thanks Abel! My thoughts exactly! Cheers!

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 14th, 2022-17:49

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...

 
 By: Subexplorer : November 14th, 2022-15:16
... 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 :-))

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 14th, 2022-17:48
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!

Thanks. I think so as well!

GMT Pepsi on jubilee bracelet

 
 By: Greenwatch : November 14th, 2022-08:13

Pepsi. Without question.

I always considered myself an ā€œoyster manā€

 
 By: Darron : November 15th, 2022-08:14
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

 
 By: Blue and White : November 15th, 2022-19:56
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 wonā€™t chose Nico, they are both exceptional Rolexes that pull at my sensibilities šŸ™‚

 
 By: oyster case : November 17th, 2022-02:44
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 Iā€™m certain you wou...

Same for me. ;)

Reviving an old thread

 
 By: RDSChicago : August 27th, 2023-01:44
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? Canā€™t make up my mind - first world problems! Thanks.

Batman on Jubillee

Batman with Jubilee. but in this case for you.. Jubilee pepsi.

Batman

 
 By: Ed Watches : September 20th, 2023-11:31
I simply like black (and thus BLNR) more than red. Both are great watches, regardless of the bracelet options.

BLNR on Jubilee for me
