Chad, awesome pick up brother Ill be curious to hear your thoughts on this one as you wear it longer.
Thanks brother!

So I know it’s not recommended to weigh in on a watch in the heat of the honeymoon lol, but I know for sure I love this watch.

So I didn’t mention earlier but I traded my BLNR to get this watch. To me the BLNR has long been the best all around watch Rolex makes. It was tough to let it go but it became clear to me my favorite way to wear the BLNR was on jubilee. Obviously that box is checked.

Also, two things occurred to me when I first got the Pepsi.

1. It didn’t seem all that different from my BLNR on jubilee (yeah different clasp and colors), but wears almost the same, better in fact, and the colors might pop a little more but are still great for daily use. So at first I was like why isn’t this as exciting as I thought it’d be!?

2. It not feeling like a totally new watch lacked a certain excitement but also proves I made the right choice for replacement. It feels so natural and right at home for me. Yes, a steamy one night stand is exciting, but this watch is marriage material.

I already talked about the color issue (or lack thereof).

Lastly, I’ve already tried it on a glidelock, Everest band, and kept my PCL BLNR bracelet, so versatility is a non-issue.

Simply put, I just love this watch!
