And did it come with the 3186 brochure?

Seems like the Pepsi and Coke M series are evenly mixed with II and ll markings.
But it seems like all the M series have come with the 3186 parachrome blue spring movement.

Nope, just a lowly "Z" that doesn't pass the jiggle test.

I have a chance to buy an "M" Pepsi but it's $5,750............

GMT Dial Fonts

I noticed my the dial font on my GMT looks like the new ceramic model dial fonts,even the hyphen spacing..should be from the same printer.
