Are GMT Pepsi's Readily Available?

....do dealers and the greys readily have them available or is it becoming the "Daytona" of Tudors?

I just got one today from Bucherer in Interlaken, Switzerland. They only had one on a bracelet. It was a really nice experience complete with Rolex spoons! They also took care of the VAT. My dealer back in the states said it would be a year. They had zero SS Rolex.

My wife and I are going to Switzerland end of April, would love to have the same luck! Congrats.

Tudor just follows Rolex. Its picking up. Keep in mind that this crazy grey market availability/prices are all "relatively" new.
Grey dealers have everything for you.
Queue in the line for benefits at dealerships... or use some more cash at the back door.

Tudor GMTs are easy to find. Do not pay above retail.

I have yet to see one in the case in the states.

I went gray and paid about 50 bucks more than I would have if I had purchased from AD, since no tax at gray. Something to consider.

The BB GMT is not going to be a Daytona. While they are hard to get, you can still get them from an AD. You might have to wait months, not years.

Good luck!

They are not that hard to get in UK. You will able to spot one or two around London for sure. I’ve seen two in the last couple weeks while I was window shopping! Lol

The Tudor GMT is a shop window watch in the UK. You are on another planet if you think it will ever become as desirable a Rolex Daytona.

I tried this on in my AD last Friday. The other dealer in the mall had it too on leather and on a Nato. I would only want it on a bracelet and my AD said if I wanted the next one in, I could have it. I really liked it and it has a great retro look about it.

I have seen them on nato, and leather in displays. On bracelet usually pulled from the back. They are uncommon but not rare from my experience.

I’ve seen at least 4 in the case in the past six months. One AD had two on bracelet in the same day.

Great looking watch but I wish Tudor would go back to using magnifying bubble. So much easier to see the date. I think I would buy it if it had one.

There are literally 1000s of them around.

Any gray dealer can get you one within 48hrs delivered to your door anywhere in the world.

I've seen them pre-owned at ADs, all for hefty premiums. Greyson also have the. For hefty premiums.

So the short answer is yes, like most other goods they are available to anyone at anytime that is willing to pay extra.

When I got my Pepsi my AD manager told me they're getting "as many in as Daytona's". Might be a stretch, but I frankly don't see them around. Even the Grey Market dealers don't hold a lot of stock here relative to Hulks, BLNRs etc.

So, can you buy them if you want to drop coin? Yes. But if you don't, good luck.

For Tudor GMTs, they're around and I see them every now and again.

To answer your question regarding the Tudor Pepsi.
I see them in shops carrying Tudor quite frequently.

Between two Tudor ADs I've never seen a GMT or a 58. There getting them and AFAIK they still have lists going.
