Has a red hand and flat blue dial. Looks pretty sharp there.

Looks pretty sharp there but can’t see why with the new SS honestly.

Because not everyone can afford the SS.

Interesting. I thought the gmt hand was white from the Rolex website. Pretty sharp.

Interesting. The rendering on the Rolex website shows it as having a white metal hand, same as the three main hands. Go figure.

I saw with red initially so thought this was a mistake and yes it is.

Good observation

amg55 · 22 March 2018, 09:40 AM

It's very blue, isn't it?

masyv6 · 22 March 2018, 09:52 AM

Strange decision with SS Pepsi coming out too. Hope they aren't planning it to be a huge seller.

gregmoeck · 22 March 2018, 09:53 AM

looks sorta cheap to me

Coke with a black dial would have been much better

I think that blue dial is stunning!!!!

robbonds · 22 March 2018, 10:10 AM

LOVE IT..I WOULD NOW CONSIDER THIS OVER THE SMURF...the black dial, not so much

nymsportf30 · 22 March 2018, 10:14 AM

I don’t know if this has been answered in any of the other threads but why does the WG Pepsi dial lack the new crown logo between Swiss Made. At first I thought it could signal SS models to PM but I see the RG rootbeer has it as well.

I was thinking the same thing this morning...a lot of extra bezels? Still some flat blue sub dials from way back laying around to re-purpose?

Looks good in that pic for sure...but definitely surprising. Blue dial - definitely playing toward the purists who love Rolex blue!!!

The dial and bezel look sort of waxy - like a crayon.

AS1 · 22 March 2018, 10:18 AM

have to say the RG is beginning to sing to me

Duey · 22 March 2018, 10:19 AM

and there's no little crown at the bottom of the dial like the SS and the RG

This may be my favorite of the Rolex Basel releases.

Heypacha · 22 March 2018, 10:25 AM

Looks like a cheap Tag Heuer GMT in white gold.

brandrea · 22 March 2018, 10:26 AM

Looks great

Stunning! One of the classiest PM models I have seen in a long time.

That crown logo is interesting. It's obviously too small to indicate anything but pretty cool.

Syed117 · 22 March 2018, 12:01 PM

I actually really like that blue dial, but just not sure what they were thinking.

Something about the blue dial plus half blue bezel insert is throwing me off.

DramaTurtle · 22 March 2018, 12:04 PM

I think it looks cool!
