Give or take ~ Coke or Pepsi

Still can't stop sharing so bear with me playing some more

After all, give or take, Coke or Pepsi

So got naked >



stayed on Kurtz mode for a while



thinking to go insertless at this point

















and went this smooth was the first insert swap

Pepsi bezel on Juibilee bracelet is the way to go if you ask me. You can only pull of the Kurtz style if you are hiding out with your private army in a jungle refuge... The horror...

I have a GMT Master with original pepsi. But I like the look of both the coke and black only inserts. I am really toying with the idea having the other inserts to give me different look options.

Great photos btw, thanks for sharing

Bezelless might be saved for the jungle hideout day indeed

Though insertless is totally a why not... Almost had a fluted bezel DJ there

I like the look with no insert. But that Pepsi insert looks killer with the jubilee bracelet

I remember a video on Youtube on how to do it.
It's not that hard, just be carefull and don't do it if you don't feel confident about it.

I love both but I've always been partial to the coke bezel.

With the 16170 you can have it all. But for this time of year this combo works best, YMMV.

If your worried about scratching up the case and underside of bezel ring you can always use a credit card to pop the bezel off.

I do it all the time.

Pepsi all the way, but like the black insert once and a while myself.
