It comes down to your choice, I prefer blue/red however I believe it is easy to switch so why not have both

redsubby · 12 July 2013, 03:17 PM

Drink - Coke
Rolex - Pepsi slight advantage

Miguel Alvarez · 12 July 2013, 08:02 PM

The pepsi insert for me. It's a classic look.

waQstar · 12 July 2013, 08:07 PM

A nice 16760 should do the trick, you get the old with the new and coke bezel.

The Waddler · 12 July 2013, 08:37 PM

buy all three bezels and just alternate. I'd also like a fully blue one.

on how to do it. If you've never done it before or don't want to, any watchmaker can change it for you for free. Beze insert is about $75 at any AD.

Do you meen that new pepsi bezel costs 75$??? Damn, where mate? Im in Sweden but would kill for a pepsi insert at that price!!'

Well, $75 is not worth going to prison over

, but it is a good deal, I'll admit. Maybe you could have one sent to you for a great price+shipping. Still, you would get a great deal. I think I paid $50 each for the two extra inserts, Black, Pepsi, Coke-original equipment. If you do buy foreign, be careful and look at the close-up shots of the insert: some have been found to be imposters, and terrible ones at that. Good luck.

Neither one is technically better, it's all subjective. From your words above, it sounds like you clearly think the Coke is nicer against the black dial.

On the flipside, while I still like the Coke bezel, I much prefer the look of the Pepsi over it, and I even like the LN (all black) bezel more than the Coke as well.

Part of the beauty of the GMT is that you can have all 3 for fairly cheap!

tazmania · 13 July 2013, 12:48 AM

like both but prefer coke

jwill051 · 13 July 2013, 12:58 AM

I have both and find myself wearing Pepsi most often

GsurgBM · 13 July 2013, 01:21 AM

I bought my watch as a "coke" preowned, but had the AD in my hometown switch it to a Pepsi insert, which he did for free. He also let me keep the coke bezel insert that was original to the watch. He said if I ever wanted another black/Pepsi/coke he could get me one at 75$ apiece.

No reason for "vs" when it's so easy to have a "+".

Tonynlia · 13 July 2013, 01:56 AM

Have both

Watchflair · 13 July 2013, 02:17 AM

Love the Pepsi on a jubilee bracelet

ess45 · 13 July 2013, 02:45 AM

applebook · 13 July 2013, 03:59 AM

Pepsi hands down.

WhatTheDeuce · 13 July 2013, 04:16 AM

Tough choice. So, I chose both...

mjclark32 · 13 July 2013, 05:38 AM

Pepsi, IMO

mrhy · 13 July 2013, 05:44 AM

no coke pepsi

petenyc · 13 July 2013, 05:45 AM

coke

colemanitis · 13 July 2013, 05:47 AM

16760 "fat lady" is the first GMT-Master w/ the coke bezel. Anything earlier than that you're looking at a pepsi bezel. Hope that helps.

nauticajoe · 13 July 2013, 06:39 AM

That's easy for me....PEPSI!

windemup · 15 July 2013, 04:30 AM

I like the tie in blk dial blk bezel. Hey minor hijack here but do you think a ceramic bezel gmt will be made red blk similar to the day night????

Reese's TimePieces · 15 July 2013, 04:31 AM

Pepsi

PunkJr · 15 July 2013, 08:04 AM

Pepsi vs Coke is like Sub vs Sub Date, variations can be good change, but there is only one original.

blue lion · 15 July 2013, 08:35 AM

Coke in the glass and on the wrist. While I love the blue on Rolexes, I didn't like the red-blue-black on the Pepsi version.

explorer42 · 15 July 2013, 08:39 AM

The original....Pepsi. Every time

CWIN · 15 July 2013, 08:45 AM

Between those two, I would definitely go Pepsi. Although these days, I'm a Batman fan.
