1. YG wasn't probably selling, same with TT
2. Pepsi was the halo product, and success would carry into the next year and beyond through the Batman 3. Limited resources, focus on the 2 best GMT sellers and create a ton of those bezels to meet demand. Shift out the black bezel, justify the price equalization and standardize production process on 2-tone cerachrome bezels 4. Based on 3, transition to the same caliber, same bracelet 5. Moar profit?

What Rolex has done hasn't hit home properly with me yet. Discontinuing SS oyster bracelet. Wow. Who'd have thought the Jubilee wouls make such a comeback?
