This piece is one of my favorite. Pretty much a daily wearer for me. If it doesn’t excite you, put it in the safe for a month and trust me the honeymoon starts all over again. I think I even prefer it over my white gold daytona
@@CoffeeMadeMeSay most of the scratches are visible on the clasp. The case and bracelet have held up very well. What a perfect watch. I really do enjoy the comfort, weight, color, and movement. Jubilee is so comfortable.
I got my Batman last week from my new AD. It lives up to everything I believed and read! It pairs up nicely with my no date sub. Looking to get the Daytona for the trifecta.
Congrats, I think it really doesn’t get better than acquiring this at retail. Cheers and wear it in good health:) Fingers crossed, the Daytona comes through 🤞
Great video. Having picked up the 126710BLNR recently I can say that it is without a doubt an amazing watch, although it really is more of a refinement over the previous 116710BLNR you're discussing. I get your point, but ultimately that timeless design in incremental upgrades is actually one of strengths of Rolex, as even an older Batman 2013 owner can still enjoy a very similar watch as mine. Cheers from Hong Kong.
Thanks Frankie! Cheers on your new 126710 acquisition :) I compare Rolex to Porsche with their 911 and both brands have done absolutely immaculate jobs refining their product lineup. One major surprise though was the new 126720 VTNR release this year. What do you think of that? Also, you've got a really cool channel, it's great to see that in HK!
@@StandardTime Yeah they're definitely playing the refinement game with their models just like the 911. The new VTNR It's a very cool color combination I'd say, and being left handed it should technically be my GMT of choice, but honestly I'm so used to wearing "right handed" watches it would even feel wierd for me!
I always wanted to add the batman to my collection. I was very fortunate to pick up both the Pepsi and batman late last year from my AD . Love the aesthetic and color scheme of the batman it goes with everything . The functionality and practicality of this timepiece cannot be underestimated especially if you travel or have business overseas . This time piece will only increase in value over time
Ive worn and owned pretty much all the watches from the gmt line from the black gmt to the batgirl and the pepsi and i must say that eventhough they are all beautiful watches, i get bored of them real quick.. maybe its the big numerals on the bezel that just didnt do it for me i dont know.. now i own the new sub 41 and it just feels so right. I dont think i would want to wear another gmt watch anytime sn..
I agree. Which is why Omega is my favorite brand. Although I own a beautiful two tone Datejust and will be getting a Batman. After I've got an Omega or two in site and then a grail of JLC or Patek - leaning toward JLC.
The Batman has always peaked my interest, I personally love the black/blue bezel 💙 🖤 . So glad to see you talking about your nato straps 👏 keep up the great work and happy 2022 brother!
the only watch that I like more than this model is the 126619LB YG Submariner ... while not a GMT, the blue on black, with the white gold just makes it sooooo special!
Back in the day 2016-2017 Batman used to sit at ADs like McDonalds! Now it’s self created rarity! My own ad gave me 4 options to buy and I took them on all four!
I agree with you. I have the Batman and been wearing it every day since I bought it in december 2018. I still love it but its not special anymore . Why did Rolex start to make them with oyster bracelet again? thats annoying. BUT its a watch you never get tired of, I think it still would be a special watch if Rolex didnt start making them again with oyster.
Any Rolex watch is beautiful! I just feel after sometime I’ll get tired looking at blue/Black bezel. So looking at Black Sub for day to day wear. Thoughts?
Yeah I fear that may be the case. Any stark combination kind of gets boring after a while. I do think over the long term a black sub may be nicer for daily wear
I’m not a fan of any of the two tone Rolex models. I had a black and gold sub for a couple of years but recently sold it. Now I just want classical DJ and a no date sub. And my grail DayDate white gold one day…
I think it’ll take a bit of time for it to grow on you. I’ve had my Pepsi for about a month now. At first I wasn’t too thrilled about it; rather a piece that was just for collecting. Now, I absolutely love it just as much as my Datejust and Sub date. Give it some time, it looks good on the wrist and is pretty versatile (more versatile than blue/red).
I’m planning to get either the 116710blnr or the 126710blnr oyster steel for my first rolex. Which would you suggest me getting? And do you think its a good idea to get one in the gray market now?
If you’re planning to wear it and keep it for a while I would recommend a preowned 116710 blnr. If you really want a brand new one then it’s got to be the 126710. They’re appreciating week on week so far so it’s pretty much never the right or wrong time with this piece I think
It’s an awesome watch of course and I would love one but I recently picked up an OP 41 and feel it has more character. If I could only have one of the two I like the simple and fun look of the OP
Well, the did change the specs of the 2021 Batman. They made the case slimmer and more sleek. Additionally, they updated the outdated movement. This is classic Rolex. Perhaps not as interesting as others would prefer, but there were some really nice changes made. Great video. Thanks for your time doing this.
I don't think majority of the people owning Rolex is selling them now hence the prices increasing weekly. We all know there is a shortage in supply hence the reason market price increases.
Yeah that’s right. The confusing part is most events that have impacted the traditional asset classes haven’t yet affected watches. Makes it super strange to use rationality here
Great commentary! Thank you! I let go of my BLNR when the market was at $12K 🤦♂️. I really miss the watch and am even contemplating buying it back. If the Coke is introduced, the BLNR will be discontinued
Thanks mate, I appreciate it :). Perhaps I can make you feel better - I was offered a blnr in 2017 at around $7400. Didn’t have the funds, not that I thought it was going to shoot up though.
If it makes you feel better I paid $5300 over retail for the all black GMT which is now discontinued. I have always liked this watch but back in 2008-2009 when it first came out, I was a broke college student. Finally in 2021 was able to buy it without feeling guilty but had to pay a premium.
I always have to pay premium amounts at my AD, paid for pepsi jubilee €25,500 , sky dweller blue dial jubilee €33.500 how do you guys get it for retail price?
They let me buy other rolex watches to give them in return to them and pay money. They don’t care because there are so many people willing to do that..
Got mine in August, wore it for a week and now its in the safe. Pretty unexciting, wish I got the Pepsi instead. For my daily its still Hulk, No date and YM
I don’t think you quite understand supply and demand. If you could walk into any authorized dealer and find a watch to purchase, none of these gray market prices would exist
I hate it when watches I one go up in price, because I want to wear them instead of selling them. There is no issue about value retention, but this hype is not good for everyone who loves the watches instead of their prices.
Yeah. A large percentage of the watch market is now pretty much an asset class so I think those days are behind us. After all it’s a luxury item with large profit margins, so there was some inevitability to it at least from a capitalist perspective.
Rolex was an Asset class even decades ago. Just have a look at the Submariner or Daytona prices since 1970. 30 times higher now. This would have been a better investment than the S&P500, which is 20 times higher since then. But many people care about Rolex since a few years. So there should be another reason. Maybe Social Media, where people are flexing with their watches.
The batman has been pretty steady for the last 6 months. For 15k GBP you get an unworn one. Was the same in August when I got mine. Batgirl is about a k cheaper. And the old 116710BLNR you can pick up for less than 13k. Prices havent risen at all for it all year
Well done video quality and a great topic. Will be interesting to see where this market will go in the coming months and years. Can it possibly get any hotter?
Thanks mate, I appreciate it :) Super intrigued by this one’s market because I’d consider this to be more sound than the Daytona market at the moment as well. What’s going to be of large influence is probably the potential black gmt re-release in April. I wonder how that will play out :)
I disagree. I've been watching this channel for a while and seen every video. I can't think of an example where he has been out of touch or inaccurate. I come here for his unique insights, great perspective and educational experiences with watches I likely won't see myself in person. If you don't like it, make your own content. Why the need to post [inaccurate] negativity.
Didnt the channel creater mentioned that Rolex just shot themsleves on the foot with the new oyster bracelet which will kill the price of 116710? As well as the Video of Hulk? Why couldnt we post things which we dont agree on? Do u mean we could only post positive comments?
Interesting thought, I’m not sure where I lie tbh. The Batman feels more cool but the Pepsi seems like the better choice, I guess it depends on the day haha
The Batman’s blue is subdued as well. I sold mine because if you are more than two feet away from the watch it looks like a black bezel. I’d rather have the Pepsi, the red pops!
@@TruthProphet2045 agree. I had a BLNR and 114060. They looked too similar from a couple feet away. Couldn’t justify both. Ended up selling the BLNR. Fantastic watch though. I’ve since sold my sub and now on a waiting list for another BLNR. Go figure.
@@mfabiani115 I had those same two. I sold blnr and my sub. I just picked up a new cermit, you can see the green bezel from 20ft away. It pops! I think it’s a keeper!
You can’t buy ANY Rolexes watches at an AD. That is why the few that are available via the gray market are expensive and have climbed in value. Couple that with the belief that these watches will hold there value and you have only part of the story on why the rise in price for a Rolex. It doesn’t help that you have one factory that is supplying the world.
When this all comes crashing down I can’t say I won’t chuckle. An OP at 30k is just stupidity. There is zero justification for that price. If I were Rolex I would be horrified but obviously they don’t care which should damage their reputation but I’m sure it won’t.
Yeah OP hype is very absurd, however quite interestingly a few people in the comments have received theirs at the AD which is fantastic! Hopefully that improves :)
Got Batman at retail price in December. Love it. Do prefer the way my Sub feels as an everyday piece. Use Batman more for business travel. Not selling it, will pass on to one of my boys one day.
All the “hype” is from the grey market. You want one, get on the list and wait! Just got mine yesterday @ retail. Took 2.8 years, worth it…be patient, get on the list.
It's pretty simple tbh, you don't need a Phd in economics, these are no longer watches but an investment asset class. With inflation set to have a major impact on cash in 2022, and the 10yr yield on US bonds at -1%!!! this is the only explanation needed.These watches protect you cash against projected inflation better than most things 'normal people' can get their hands on....... Welcome to 2022 guys.....and forget 'imaginative' watches that hold their value.....even Patel is now a one watch pony, just like AP
@@StandardTime certainly in the UK 🇬🇧 I have Pepsi on Jubilee and Blue Sky-Dweller on Oyster. My long term AD has advised me that I can order the other option for either or both of my watches if I would like to. I have the original Batman too Ref 116710 but as you know there isn’t a Rolex supplied jubilee bracelet option for that one.👍

Which do you prefer the most? Put aside all the hype
I have the batman( bat girl) on the jubilee and the sub tt with blue face. Due to the bracelets, very different look and feel. I love them both!
That’s a great combo. The jubilee and oyster bracelets are so distinct yet perfect. I see how it makes the watches completely different :)
Yup, GMTs on jubilee and Subs on oysters give me the variety to warrant getting both :)
I agree with most of your comments. So where do you we are now with the Batman and Rolex as a whole in July 2022?
Thanks! In July we’re basically 15% down with the Rolex market, in comparison to Jan/Feb. Tough to say whether the market is at its bottom or not.
I think it’ll take a bit of time for it to grow on you. I’ve had my Pepsi for about a month now. At first I wasn’t too thrilled about it; rather a piece that was just for collecting.

Which do you prefer the most if you had to choose one? Put aside the hype
Spot on all Rolexes are very similar, unless they have a different dial. All my watches has a different dial.
I really like the video. What i like the most about it is that you’re so calm during this video. 💯

I don't think majority of the people owning Rolex is selling them now hence the prices increasing weekly. We all know there is a shortage in supply hence the reason market price increases.
The key is to understand that markets that go up and up eventually find a top. Then, they go down. No one knows how long this will last.
Yeah that’s right. The confusing part is most events that have impacted the traditional asset classes haven’t yet affected watches. Makes it super strange to use rationality here
when a model gets discontinued, does the grey market price increase or decrease?
Almost always a quick increase. It depends on the model to say if that increase sticks long term though.

I have the original Batman too Ref 116710 but as you know there isn’t a Rolex supplied jubilee bracelet option for that one.👍
My local AD mentioned you beable to buy bracelets in about 2 years time roughly for £1500
I'm not into the Batman. I'd rather save a little extra for a Pepsi. I like the Black bezel more than the Batman, personally.
Get a Bluesy.....fixes everything
Nice looking fake.
The watch looks pretty boring. But safe bet as in what? Any sports watch at retail is an instant profit. Silly upload.
Blah blah blah,yap,yap,yap, Nothing new here.Same old stuff,total waste of time looking for a Rolex at retail these days.
