Rolex GMT Master II Pepsi 126710 BLRO 2020 MK3 Unboxing & Review in 4k

[@mfabiani115]

I can’t even track down a sub locally. No chance I’ll find a pepsi. Your hard work and persistence paid off. Congrats.

[@michaelfierman3256]

Really happy for you Niko. Instead of just a “flex” some guys might do about getting this watch, you really express your love for the hobby and also obviously the journey and story of how you got it makes it super special.

[@watcherofwatches1969]

Congrats TDE!!! The phone calls, PCR tests, long haul flight were all worth it to get your grail, and a memory you will never forget!

[@herts9999]

Spends 10k on a watch, gets excited about a $.03 ziplock bag. Who says 2020 is a bad year?? Beautiful pickup. I think this blows the BLNR out of the water!

[@andygregory2145]

Glad that i supplied you with my BLRO wrist shot photo from FB for your video and now you have your own =)

100% Andy :)!

you just made me love this watch so much more. congratulations and thank you for sharing your joy with us!

[@CookingEngineer]

where did you bought the watch and joe long did you waited?

[@USA2ndAmendment]

I love your videos man...and I am jealous of this watch as I will never be able to have one, but I can live vicariously through you! Lol

[@luthert657]

I never understand these model. Those bezels are ugly. Why people want it tho

[@AG-nj3ky]

@@luthert657 i wouldn't say ugly, but i can understand it is not for everyone. However, i dont understand why some of these models have become so popular. When i bought my first rolex literally no one was waiting in the line for a gmt. People didint like the triangle gmt hand and the fonts were crazy big on the bezel. But as soon as rolex came with the two colour bezels all that was forgotten and even the black bezel gmt was cool all of a sudden. Same with the green sub. It was a clown colour and people made fun of you saying you look like a fucking kermit wearing that thing. The grey market price has trippled since. I believe that social media has reached out to a much larger watch community than before and also different generation of watch enthousiasts. Moreover, it has attracted much watch owners that can only think in safe investments that a youtube channel recommends rather than buying what they like. It is truely a mess. The pepsi GMT is the only gmt i have liked so far. However, is it cool enough to cost 10k list price watch? Hmmm maybe and thats a big maybe. Is it cool enough to cost 18k grey price? Hell no. Would this watch still be this hot if you could actually buy it at retail knowing it would not increase in value at all? Certainly not.

It's good to reward ourselves sometimes . While I'm not one to spend on high-end watch (I spend too much money on travel, lol), I can appreciate your gorgeous and timeless watch. I love how it's a symbol of all your hard work.And i choose nkuwan every time honestly

[@johnhew3655]

your hard work in searching for that pepsi finally bears fruit. I would have given up on calling so many ADs out there to check if there's a pepsi available. Its a very beautiful watch and i'm happy for you.

Pretty funny. When this watch came out I just went in and bought it like it was a regular watch. Now no one can buy it. Crazy.

[@vika0194]

People only want it because it’s impossible to get.

[@nikmansol]

Just ordered it today AD said I will have it before Xmas I am so delighted . The queue is a myth they said if you have history after buying a Patek it’s guaranteed you will have it for European buyers . They just filter the new money and the flippers which is the right thing to do . Great to focus on our grail ! I changed my mind 3 times while ordering between Pepsi and Submariner black but AD said I can only have one. Your review came to mind ! 🙏

[@sash41]

Which country are you based? I have purchase history and can’t even get a black sub! It’s been nearly 2 years now

[@nikmansol]

[@nikmansol]

@@sash41 for the blac sub they told me it’s even easier to get but they want me to spend another 7k usd in jewellery or no sports Rolex to allow me order it . Just giving you a bit of background as I know how much you spent between watches . But nowhere some lies people spread on the internet like buying 20 watches and not being able to get it etc

Love this watch I would love to own one you are a lucky man. I just can’t see paying $8-9k over retail and it is impossible to get one at AD.

'That can become quite a pain if you buy a lot of watches' - That's a pain I would gladly welcome.

[@NicholasSadlier]

Congratulations on your purchase. Yes, I think Rolex could up their game on the boxes - maybe produce a wooden one like Omega, only smaller.

These gmt’s you can dive in. Most people don’t scuba beyond 70’ depth anyway. More than enough.

[@sulaimanndubai1392]

to get it at retail price from the shop, I think I need to spend some money on other models and what should I start with? first, buy oyster models and datejust then pepsi like this?

Is the blue more like a purple blueish color ?

look at that，a conbination of classic and sporty，it looks attractive under any lights. Although I could afford flipper price, I will never buy at premium from them. Hope Dubai AD will receive their stock faster, so we could all enjoy

Hong Kong is the number 1 importer for Swiss watches in the world , my AD shop staff told me normally they can have one pepsi each week . However they are just selling to those who will pay the premium.

[@captlove8788]

I have been following your channel since your purchase of Ex1. Congrat on obtaining your dream Pepsi. I Love the piece, and also wearing it while making this comment right now. Though I wish Rolex would some day replace the easy-link extension with Sub’s style Glidelock, as it saves you from unnecessary trip to Rolex Service for any link adjustment. To me an easy-link is quite useless as 5mm expansion is simply a bit too much.

[@MrVoayer]

[@JohnUSA7]

I never bought any of the Rolex GMT models because all of them came with the not so desired colors. I never liked or would have ever bought the unattractive red, blue, green and root-beer colored bezels. They all looked like cheap toys. But now so glad that at last Rolex released their super gorgeous new GMT with the Grey/Black beautiful and attractive bezel. This new GMT is the 126710GRNR model also known as the Bruce Wayne model. I liked this new GMT so much that I just bought it. It comes with either the Jubilee or Oyster bracelet. I bought the model with the Jubilee bracelet and it looks just simply amazing. This of course is a very personal taste and your taste may differ than mine.

I have a question, last month in walked into an (AD Rolex) with my wife and kid inquiring about a gmt either pepsi or batman. I told the lady I can't decide on which one to get but which ever becomes available thats the one meant for me. She had a batman on display she let me try on, stright fire. she asked me what do I do for a living I should her my job id- Sheriff Deputy. She not only physically put down my info. But also gave me the same rolex book you have in tge thumb nail of this video. Hopefully everything goes well, she said it could take several months up or to a little of a year. What's you guys thoughts? I told my wife I'm trying to buy msrp tge right why, but if that call don't come by 05/2024 I'm going straight to the grey market. Forgive typos I never try to proof write on youtube.
