Thanks everyone,

The blue-black ceramic bezel looks amazing and the pics don't do it justice.

I wanted a Rolex with a little bit of color (all my other watches have black dials) and I was trying to decide between this or a green dial submariner, but when I saw this one in person it made the decision that much easier.

Unbelievably nice John ! :thumbsup: I remember seeing this one back a while
ago when it was first announced, but wow it's even nicer seeing it
here in your pics.

That bezel, along with color combination is excellent ! Hope you will
really enjoy this one !

It has to be in the works. Rolex filed the patent for "not ugly red ceramic" in the not too distant past. I'm not sure a Pepsi will show up (I would love to be wrong), but the Coke seems to be a sure thing - who knows how long we're going to have to wait though.

Was your humping bed rented in 30 minute increments?
