2018 GMT Master II 126710 BLRO on wrist
My local AD had a demo unit (no movement) of the new Pepsi GMT Master II in the store and it really is stunning in person. I'm a big fan!

I love the 16710, i own them, I hàve photographed them alongside my 116660 JC. This is the first time that I have seen the 126710 alongside a reference that I own, it looks truly ghastly . It could not look more contrived.
Every direction that Rolex is pursuing is deeply diminishing my opinion of the brand.

Funny how perception is different....next to the D-blue, I think the BLRO looks exceptional.

Yup, I thought the same!!! That’s probably the first pic I’ve seen of the 126710 where I’m seriously stoked with the colours and the overall package

Interesting, I could not be more blown away by the 126710 after seeing the on wrist pictures in this thread.

I have to agree. the bracelet just does not sync with the watch. I guess that if just keep looking at it enough, I will get used to it!

Colours don't appear too bad, in this shot.

Nice, for a constipated Rolex.

The Sky Dweller and DSSD dwarf the BLRO. In some pics the red on the BLRO looks maroon.

My AD on 5th avenue also had a demo unit, looks amazing on a hand indeed. The bad part, the waiting list is so long they stopped putting people on ot

Thank you. From the brief time I had it on my wrist I found it comfortable and I happen to like the aesthetics of the juibilee bracelet, but I can understand why others don't care for the look.
