Nice TF but for less than half (4k) you can get the new Tudor Pepsi................

 

I love the fact they put the Rolex GMT on the Jubilee again though but 9k!

Hodinkee:

"So what is new about this watch? Well, for one it has a Jubilee bracelet that hasn't been seen on a GMT-Master since the vintage years and is only used on current Datejust models."

 

It looks good.

The tudor looks good too.  I would like to see the back side of the bracelet to find out how they applied the rivets...might be like the solid link replicas.

 

My new at the time (1989) 'Coke' 16760 GMT had a Jubilee although it may be considered 'vintage' by now.  I paid $1465 for it out the door, I knew someone at the AD back then.  Like a fool I sold it too soon. 

Only GMT I have now is a 555xxxx 'Pepsi' 1675 with the original Jubilee it came with (list price $795 in 1978).  I paid $825 in 2007 to the original owner for it.  Guess it will have to do because the new models cost too much for me.

I like it a lot...waiting for the oystersteel model since the whitegold one appeared. Hopefully, this one will be repped well soon ❤️
