111 gone...233 inbound
Hi everyone, So I did it! I had previously considered trading my BLNR towards the 233. However, after much soul searching and great input from all especially Pattyb69, rolexlover85, and Mr. Kram for helping me move forward in the process. I decided to trade my 111 instead. Can't wait for FedEx to get here on Monday. I conducted the trade with Gil known here as TWCNY. Pics of the incoming from his listing.
Tudor Pepsi GMT - Blue/Red Bezel Combination
Tudor did a great job in combining the BLUE from the BBB bezel and RED from the BBR bezel to make the new GMT Pepsi bezel they just released.It looks great and is perfect for Tudor not only because the color tones are just right with the aluminum bezel but also it actually draws from the Tudors' recent Black Bay history.I am curious if Tudor/Rolex knew they were going to make a Pepsi bezel all along when they initially released the BBR and BBB and planned this for years....OR did some engineer/marketer just wake up last year and said hey let's use the current Black Bay red and blue colors for a new Pepsi GMT....I'm not sure of the lead time to create a new watch, but luck or planning they did good.(i'd still pick Rolex BLRO SS over Tudor GMT but I do appreciate Tudor's execution of the GMT)
The aura of vintage and the curiosity of modern
My 5513 is my first vintage Rolex and perhaps among my favorite watches ever but I will be the first to admit, I am scared to use it as a daily wearer as its unpolished and perfect IMO. My solution was to get a 14060 and so I did, but alas, it just doesn't have the same good looks or feel and so I am on the fence about letting it go, allow me to explain; My conclusion, is that IMO if you are getting a non super case Submariner, it should be a 5513, 1680, but if you are going modern, IMO the case, lugs and bracelet of a 114060 is superior to that of the 14060 or 16610. thoughts on my above statement?
