If you want one I would advise you to buy it right now while the market is cool. One thing is certain: if it does get discontinued the grey price will increase and you will kick yourself for not buying when they were $x. Seen it time and again...

When it comes to GMTs, for me it's Pepsi or nothing. YMMV.

If they discontinue, I’d go CHNR.
But, according to my guy, they’ve only seen one broken BLRO bezel over 4 stores and no slow down in deliveries. |

+1 for going grey
I don’t see how it can get discontinued though. |

None. The BLRO is the GMT I've always wanted and no other combination interests me. I was offered a BLNR once by my AD and in the metal it really pops, but it wasn't what I really wanted. As far as the current Roplex catalogue goes I am fortunate in that they don't sell anything I want. It saves me a fortune!

Pretty good questions…I’d be absolutely devastated! Not sure if I could bring myself to buy grey. If a red/black came out I’d request one of those. If not, I’d probably buy a green/black until the red/blue is reintroduced. I’d maybe buy a vintage too.

They better not discontinue the Pepsi, I've been on the wait list for way too long and to have my dreams dashed now would be devastating. :)

Here’s a few options for ballers…
1. Buy it at grey prices 2. Buy a white gold black dial version. Can be had for mid $20’s. 3. Buy the meteorite version. 4. Buy a vintage-y version. 16760 and before. Quote:

Don't know why there is still talk of discontinuation?
Has the GMT in a Pepsi configuration ever been discontinued since the 1st "bakelight" in red-blue came out? If it discontinuation did happen just go grey |

I've requested one (it would be great but not a must have) and have the spend history to back it up at a few ADs but still no call for a few years.
I've moved onto the meteorite version for now but of course that's a wait as well. If they discontinue all BLRO I'll get something else. The grey price for a discontinued BLRO wouldn't be worth it. |

GMT meteorite

Agree with #3, any suggestions on where to procure a 126719 BLRO meteorite? The wait an ADs is 3-5 years or so I am told. |

I bet you get the BLNR. Market is getting better. Hold strong. No grey don’t feed the beast!

If it get discontinued, I will have more reason to get it from the grey market, and even faster than from my AD

I asked my friend today at lunch what he would do if they discontinued the Pepsi, and his response was classic- "wouldn't make any difference to me, I've never seen one available at a AD and probably never will anyways.. so, no change!".
![]() He's been on a "list" at his AD for over 3 years now btw. He's convinced he's never getting one. |

The rumours were all grey market propaganda. We've seen it before, fake letters from Rolex saying they are cutting production etc:
![]() Grey dealers will do anything to prevent their bags from losing value too much. Watch the rumours swirl up again as we get closer to April 2025.
