Lovely insight, and made me itch for one, despite my ownership of a BLNR on jub. Thanks a lot.

Congrats! I have a Batman and a Pepsi on jubilee. I love both but the Pepsi is just something else. I adore it. My favorite watch. Wore mine to dinner tonight at Moo. Side note - capital grill way better in my opinion.

Congrats, nice writeup. I had had my BLNR for over a year when my BLRO arrived in late 2018. Three weeks later I had sold it knowing it wouldn’t get much if any wear anymore.

Great post and thanks for sharing.

As much as I wanna like the BLNR, I just keep finding the blue a bit too cartoonish for me personally. The BLRO is pure perfection and I'm a sucker for something with history.

I have a modern meteorite BLRO and yes the colors are stunning.

But you know what . . . there's something about a 16710 or -700 Pepsi that's just . . . perfect.
