GMT Pepsi in Movies/TV?

Curious in what movies or t.v. shows you have seen the GMT (or GMT II) Pepsi bezel make an appearance.

I thought I read something about Magnum P.I., but just wanted to find as many as you all know.

Can't think of any right now but you are correct, Tom Selleck wore a GMT in Magnum P.I.!!!

Any James Bond?

Did ANY character in any James Bond movie ever wear one?

In Oceans 13, there are two characters wearing Rollies, Brad Pitt, with a new - C, and the guy (name escapes me), who was the chief of the security system, Greco or whatever. When the system shuts down and reboots, it takes 3 minutes, he times it by looking at his Explorer II.

I know this thread was not started yesterday, but this quote is accurate. I was flipping channels in between sporting events and paused on Wedding Crashers. I noticed the watch and exclaimed " holy shi- he is wearing a pepsi."

The image was fleeting, so I hit rewind on the dvr to verify.

Speaking of Tom Selleck, he not only wore a GMT in the Magnum PI series, but he still wears one in the newer Jesse Stone movies..

And he must wear that sucker pretty tight on his wrist too, but it wasn't moving.

Marlon Brando wore a GMT, presumably a 1675, in Apocalypse Now, although the bezel was completely popped off. And Martin Sheen wore my favorite Seiko 6105 in that movie.

I think Delroy Lindo wore one in Broken Arrow.

I think I also saw Owen wear the GMT in the pool in The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Funny movie but it didn't make a lot of money.

Of course James Bond wore a GMT in a movie, as did his co-star Ursula Andress. Also many others in the cast including the most unlikely JB of all. Guess who!!
