Title: Rolex 16710 Pepsi/Coke Stick Dial Z-Serial vs 116710 BLNR

Advise? BLNR is everywhere, but the Pepsi is a collectable. Price wise is nearly there

i love 16710 .  But if you compare spec to spec, it will be the new one.  Then again , is the 16710 not good enough ? absolutely no.
So is all up to you . I will defo with no second thought choose 16710, cause i am a sucker for old casing. And 16710 is not as common too. And the polish bracelet is not for me on a gmt, but for a daytona is pretty .

i belief pepsi produced, are far more than the current BLNR
agreed with spider boy - new rolex is much much more better built than older generation

bracelet
buckle
case
bezel
lume
movement

I think at some point down the road I will still get myself a BLNR  ;D Just now on the table a rare final batch 16710BLRO came by with full set doc n box, it's really difficult to resist!! but asking price is quite steep around 28k, is it worth the shot?

Fullset is the best purchase you'll never regret but hey its your money and your decision, you should try them both and decide :). I think you could nego and make a deal to 23-25k ;)

I have a BLNR and had the exact thought that it might be too common.

I won't know if the Batman will appreciate but I remember the exact scenario for the Kermit and it was almost everywhere in the early 2000s- A MK 1 set now is almost 40K.
