Is the bezel insert the only difference between your Coke bezel and a Pepsi or Batman?

Now for the obligatory pics..

Stay safe everyone!

In this reference, 16710, yes. Interchangeable inserts are coke, pepsi and all black. In ceramic gmt models, bezel inserts are not interchangeable, for example Batman.
