The confusion comes from the initial release of both models. The 16700A GMT I model was the initial release and was Pepsi fitted. The 16760A GMT II was the initial release and fitted with Coke inserts. The follow-on GMT II retained A suffix as Coke, the Pepsi was released later and coded B.
Whilst no GMT Master was ever fitted from new with the Coke insert, presumably a Coke insert from a GMT II would fit a GMT Master?
