I believe it is the same type of micro adjustment for oyster and jubilee on the GMT models. There is no glide lock like on the Submariner.
Thats correct! There is a 5 mm easylink that easy to adjust on the go. But nothing beats the glidelock when it comes to precision as it's almost seamless adjustment.

When someone from China says "next week" - it means some vague point in the future. It does not necessarily mean "next week".

Ooof ok, maybe I shouldn't have taken their word for it! New to the rep game.

Mirotime has said they expect stock in the next 1-2 days.

Anyone heard anything from their TDs yet?

Really does seem like the only vocabulary TDs have is this week, next week, soon...

No.

And if you look above you were already told what to expect regarding timing. You don't have to keep pointlessly bumping your own thread asking for updates either - when there are any, they will appear.

In the meantime, the world will keep on spinning.

Great news! When did you preorder? I ordered mine on the 13th, probably a bit late compared to most but hopefully means I'll get a QC relatively soon too.

I put an order for both BLNR and BLRO on 18th June. Received pepsi QCs on 7th July (rejected 1st piece due to obvious flaws discussed in the separate pepsi thread) but nothing yet on BLNR as factory delayed the production. I'll keep an eye on shipping/ arrival dates to see how long it will get to my location. I believe around 10-15 days total.

Basically, the 116710 was sold from 2007 - 2018, and the 126710 is the current model, which went on sale in 2018.

I think the current batman models (126710) went on sale in 2019.

Great website for actual specific differences and changes:

https://www.bobswatches.com/watch-resources/rolex-gmt-master-history

Keep in mind, both the new (126710) pepsi and batman were jubilee only upon introduction, but are now both available on oyster or jubilee bracelets (stainless steel models).

There are a lot of people around here who know A LOT more than I do, so please correct me if I'm wrong!

Hope this helps...

I also placed my order w/ Jtime on 7/8 for my batman, and am still waiting for QC pics...

For what it's worth, and I can be wrong but on the other thread for CF Pepsi I saw that one member noted the cases are not that different between 116710 and 126710, so maybe 116710 is the better choice as the 126710 (by CF) has fat lugs which is more or less incorrect. That being said, 116710 has a different movement (3186 sets clockwise and newer GMT on 126710 movement sets counter clockwise) and only comes on oyster bracelet.

The choice is yours, but if I was getting a Batman I would go for the slightly more correct 116710 unless you must have the Jubilee bracelet.

Looks like they fixed the length of the minute hand. Those speed bumps tho.
