Novice Question

Hi All - I'm interested in a Pepsi GMT. I'm confused when I see an ad that says Rolex Pepsi bezel v. Rolex Pepsi bezel insert. When I hear insert, I think a replacement. Like the original bezel has been removed and this new non-original bezel has been inserted. Are the ads saying the same or is ther a difference by adding "insert"?

THANKS!!!!

Same thing. The insert itself has the colors and numbers on it.

These different inserts can be swapped out but they all use the same original bezel.

Maybe this will help out.

The insert is the auminum disc that is seated inside the steel bezel. The bezel itself would be more expensive to replace than the insert.

Welcome to the forum. Just confirm with the seller whether the bezel is original or a replacement.
