Rolex GMT Master 2 pepsi white gold meteorite dial

What do you guys think of the new GMT Master 2 pepsi white gold meteorite dial

Im expecting to get the word from my AD this year.

I really like the design. My only concern would be with legibility under certain conditions with the white hands/hour plots against the white dial.

Both are beautiful, the Daytona would be a good catch.

Got to see one last weekend. Absolutely stunning. Also saw a WG DD40 with meteorite dial and diamond hour markers (Basel 2018 release) a few weeks ago and that was just as jaw-dropping. Both of these watches look fantastic with the meteorite (more so than a meteorite Daytona, in my opinion).

If I was in the market to be dropping PM money on a single Rolex, this one would certainly be on the very short list right now.

Since they released the SS ceramic pepsi I've lost all interest in the WG version personally. Still a very nice watch regardless of my opinion.

Nothing beats black Imo. More pop to the markers.

Agreed. The lume plots and hands blend in with the meteorite. Too little contrast for me. I need legibility and a quick glance.

Not a fan to be honest. Haven't seen one in person but I feel like there's too much going on between the dial and then the Pepsi bezel. One or the other I feel.

For me when i was invited to the rolex event and tried on the meteorite dial pepsi it blew me away and everyone at the event. its presence reminded me of the old 1959 Pan am gmt.

Placed the PAn am gmt and meteorite together cross section to show the look :)

I was offered one by my AD, bud passed on it. A bit to much contrast for my liking.

Not sure about that. You already got a busy dial, with the jubilee you will have way too much going on
