Pretty interesting comparison. I'm thinking BLNR more and more ...

nice review. To be fair however I would say that in my experience all brand new Rolex watches I have ever had look very (too) shiny / bling"y"at first, but it usually disappear over time to a nice sheen... I do agree with you on the aluminum bezel inserts, especially the Pepsi one. Ceramic is defiantly different, I like them but I like the aluminum better...
