From what I read the BLRO has a longer power reserve due to thinner barrel walls, updated/improved mainspring and a new, more efficient escapement. Nice video!

Another amazing high quality video, so glad your channel exists to satisfy my watch obsession 😂😁. As to which watch I would choose? The correct 'watch obsessive' answer is both. Choosing only one would imply the other is not worth having!! Your watch collection is impressive already, but if you had to go for one more, maybe a Vacheron Constantin Overseas to complete the Holy Trinity, more 'stealth wealth' ? Keep up the great work. Thank you

Wow. I am fortunate to now own both. 2017 Batman and the 2018 BLRO. Just gorgeous time pieces. The weight relief from the jubilee bracelet is nice, BLNR is about 146-147 grams. BLRO is only around 138-139. Biggest challenge is which one to wear. Love them both. My DateJusts are now just gathering dust.

‘Tough watches to get.’ You aren’t kidding! My AD has had 4 Daytona’s come and go in the time I’ve been waiting and I’ve just had my Pepsi come in which was the first in that time! Mad. No wonder these are still rising in price. Understand why people don’t want to wait:)

Great video! However, 1 Oyster bracelet link equals 2 Jubilee links.... I’ve measured them because I have 8 inch wrists and add 2 Oyster links and 4 Jubilee links to my watches. You removed the equal amount, then weighed them.... Remove 2 more Jubilee links and weigh again and you’ll be even lighter on the BLRO.

Thank you for another very pleasant video. I think I finally got Rolex with the BLRO coloring now. I owned the Batman myself and found it was a bit too sporty colorwise. Now when seeing your comparison video, I realized that Rolex made the Pepsi more subdued in color to make it more versatile in non-sporty occations. Love it! I am on a waiting list for the Pepsi and will probably get in in a year or so :)

great video, well done. You asked which we prefer. I prefer the Batman, but with the Jubilee bracelet. Now you have a clearly more formal evening watch. I prefer the Pepsi with the Oyster bracelet. Now you have a more casual watch, normallly more suited to daytime. So my I answer is that I prefer you to switch the bracelets!!

Have a Batman and a Pepsi on way. Just noticed the odd purplish blue - is this the same meh tone that ppl thought ruined the watches look? Should I skip it altogether and go for the GMT II Rootbeer two-tone instead? Can only get one watch this year locally and hate the idea of waiting another year over a dull muted colour mistake, lol.

If I could only have 1 watch, then I'd choose the Batman but since I already have a Sub I'd go with the Pepsi because there is way less overlap. I wanted to get the Batman as my next watch but I think it will be too similar to my Sub. I'm thinking a Polar Explorer II to change things up. It's a lot more unique and it doesn't overlap with my Speedy or Sub which are both conservative dark dialed icons.

The white Daytona is the one to get. You can always buy an AP chrono and it doesn’t have a visible case back like the regular 15400st which is really cool. The black Daytona looks nice but it is much more common than the white. This is why the white has commanded a $2k premium since the watch came out.

Always been a fan of Rolex, however now they’re becoming more popular the ‘grey market’ are taking advantage of the lack of availability with massively inflated prices. They’re good watches but double the price in some cases good? I don’t think so with brands like Omega catching up with quality watches that are readily available. I also question the waiting list times at ADs. They’re watches not unicorn shit.

I own a Ceramic Sub so I’m not in the market for another Rolex sport watch. But if I were asked to choose here, I’d go with Batman. The Jubilee bracelet is a little too much for my taste. And, I would wait to pay the $12K list price; current US$ grey market prices for these pieces have gotten ridiculous ($16-20K for Batman and even higher for Pepsi).
