Does it specify when we can expect to see it?

Google translate usually turns Chinese into gibberish but it indicates they can be "booked" next month, I am not sure exactly what that means in terms of our dealers but would guess we should be able to buy them within a couple of months at the latest. One of the big questions for most will be how close they get the blue since blue is notoriously difficult to match for what ever reason.

Wow, this has potential to be great if they can get the blue spot on. I always thought the rolex smurf wohld have been an insane seller if the gen was not over 20k and only in gen white gold.

They got the black bay blue correct, right? ... i believe they can get this one too, just a matter of referencing a gen (.. not pictures).

The ZF factory purchased a blue Pelagos. The TDs got a chance to see it and take pics of the gen.

Meanwhile the V6Fac has been saying they're working on it too, but it's not ready. I don't know if they purchased one. They may be waiting for ZF to release theirs, see the feedback on the forums, and buy one and make it with the suggested improvements haha. I don't know just speculation!

Yes but the BB blue is only an insert and its navy blue (and still not correct sheen but shade is right)

The blue Pelagos is in your face nearly periwinkle blue and the insert is ceramic (I believe) and they have had some difficulties with ceramics before.

I believe they can get it right, but knowing the factories it will take a few times, then when they get that right there will be another flaw

So my TD says likely within the next two weeks we should start seeing this on websites. I already let him know that I want one :)

I know.. they've been saying for over a year a blue one was in the works so excuse my skepticism :)

No worries mate, the factories have a gen in hand so it has to be sooner rather than later

I just hope they get the blue right
