New 2018 Pepsi GMT : New 2018 Deapsea

[Bedlamater]

Here they are... New movements too...

I’m liking the jubilee, a bit different.. Deapsea looks nice, still a bloody monster... Watch out for the hysteria surrounding the scramble for the discontinued Cameron!

Good luck, spoken with Fraser Hart and Watches of Switzerland this morning both already had long waiting lists for the Pepsi.

If only there was a jewellers that would sell to new customers with an impressive supply

I'm about to try and do the same - ring and get on a waiting list. Chances are slim though - first Rolex, it's the one I've been waiting for.

According to one of my Rolex ADs - the list for the new Pepsi GMT is of similar demand to the SS Ceramic Rolex Daytona when it came out - they have closed their list.

Good god, they are hideous.

That ceramic Pepsi looks like a knock off...

I like the bi metal root beer GMT but the waiting list game will go into full over load, the Pepsi GMT will be on WF for 10k within hours of the first deliveries to customers but then that keeps demand up at the ADs as it's a one way bet.

I honestly can't see the appeal of these anymore. It boggles my mind, I really like the Sub look, I do. But everytime they release a version with a slightly different dial or colour bezel or different material in strap/case/bezel/dail, people seem to want to trample eachother to spend thousands on the new bling.

Is it just me or are all of the above just a version on a theme and most of them hardly warrant a change in model no?

I used to sit next to a guy back in the late 1990's who had a Blue/Red GMT Master II - I had a submariner at the time and I remember thinking I would like one of those. Anyway, life kind of got in the way and Rolex stopped making the Blue/Red Bezel GMT II.

So for me, I am very happy that Rolex has released one of these today and that it has been updated here and there.

I have phoned my AD up and asked to be put on the stupidly long list that I am sure will be there and in the course of time I will be able to get a brand new watch that I have wanted for a long time.

So for me anyway, I am pleased with today's announcement.

Prefer the deep sea to the others but would be better still without all the writing over it - reminds me of various 80's Fiats that had multiple names (strada abarth panorama station-wagon diesel turbo panorama racing TC SX ie) written all over the tailgate.

But at least it doesn't have the ugly Cyclops lens...

[chrisABP]

Still prefer my 2005 GMT with Pepsi dial to the GMT Ceramic. And its always nice to see it continuing to increase in price.

And I have a 2010 Deepsea which i'm considering selling as I have a stainless Daytona (white face) coming in next 3 months after waiting an eternity for!

Thanks for the heads up, sadly you were corrent - most lists are already closed, I'm on one list with a 7 year waiting list.... If anyone has any contacts or ADs they would be happy to share please DM me and earn a beer or two, otherwise I'll start ringing around all the London ones.

Been waiting for this watch for a long time, and nearly pulled the trigger on the GMT with changeable Bezels but prices shot up in the 12 months I was looking and never expected this to show up at Baselworld!

Jubilee bracelet looks wrong. The weight of that thing is going to cause the Jubilee to "stretch" after a couple of years.

I wear my BLNR on a Sub bracelet!

It did cost me £1,300 though, the untouched original bracelet is still fully stickered, I did it because I didn't like the PCLs on that particular watch!

Rang my AD and spoke to a person I normally deal with to put a deposit on the Pepsi , was told clearly I’d have to call in and express my interest , called in an hour later , to be told that there was no waiting list as of yet and the manager would decide who gets what and when ,I was told I couldn’t pay a deposit and there was no way they’d put the fact that I’d called in as requested in writing to confirm.

This will be my 7th Rolex from the same dealer , all the previous Rolex purchased from them we still have in our possession.

I left the store thinking I’d been messed about this morning and will get messed about in the future with the new purchase, I know waffle when I hear it.

Northern G*oldsmiths management, if any of you read this and want to get in touch by pm , feel free.

I’m not impressed with today’s episode.

None of these are getting me excited but that's fine, fill yer boots chaps. And maybe it will shrink The List for a regular or blue/black GMT that I'm waiting for.

Quite a few reports of BLNRs getting delivered this week on TZ-UK
