I actually really like the bluesy. I have the Pepsi and it's amazing, but there is something intoxicating about the bluesy.
I love the Bluesy and the dial but it's a loud piece and the Pepsi gets the edge for me due to versatility.

And it's there with the Sub and Daytona on legendary / icon status so there will always be a deep pool of buyers.


That is insane to me. Pepsi is so god awful compared to a Daytona that I'm not sure how they are even in same universe.

There's no right or wrong opinion when it comes to watch design.

Except calling the Pepsi awful. That's a wrong opinion.


I realize I'm in the minority here but I stand by it - that watch is gross and I cant believe people pay more than $1K for it.

Keeper for me as I got it from AD for 11k. Have had it almost 2 years. Could have sold it for almost 30k. Should have taken advantage

Ha I got one of these recently also, pretty neat movement! The way the metronome beats is super funky and super functional. Only problem for me is that the strap isn't big enough :/ I need a sumo wrestler version

Luckily, I can just barely use the last hole on the strap on my 7 1/4 inch wrist.

For me, I really like the look, but have no use for a gmt. I'd just have this extra hand floating around somewhere for no useful purpose

There's no competition with you around. Clicking on your profile people can see all your posts. I only went back a dozen or so, but not a single meaningful contribution from you on any threads. Just constantly bashing people and being a troll.

I really don't like the two-tone bezel, especially in red and blue. If I wanted that function, I'd look for a solid bezel GMT or, more likely, an Explorer 2.

Uneducated has nothing to do it with it although I fully admit to being uneducated on the quality of various watch movements which is something I'm going to read up on soon.

I simply don't like two tone watches, by and large. I especially don't like this one because of the color palette. So, I'm not arguing it's quality or function - just it's look.

I was being a little hyperbolic last night because I had a few drinks in me but I simply do not like the look of it at all.

A special delivery just arrived! Huge shout out to Frank at Zadok Jewelers who worked with me to get this piece despite no previous relationship, couldn't recommend working with him more.

Happy Friday and 4th of July to everyone!

Awesome watches on here. Thinking about trying to get a blue Aqua Terra Skyfall as my first luxury watch. Have always loved it. Hope to be able to track one down soon and contribute to the thread.

Aqua Terra was my first luxury watch. Love that time piece.

FTAC2011 is who I picked it up from. He is very resourceful.

I'm not a Rolex guy but the Pepsi is 1000x better looking than the bluesy IMHO. I am not at all a fan of gold watches, let alone two-tone. Just my personal preference.
