Which one looks better?

I’ve been going back and forth every couple of weeks, and I like both looks equally. Just wondering what you all think. I guess the third option is Pepsi on Oyster but these are the two combos I like best.

I'm a Pepsi guy, but any one of the 3 insert options look brilliant.

I was going to get the Coke and All black inserts to go with my BLRO, but the blue & red is such a favorite of mine I don’t see the point. I’d never swap them out.

The genius of that reference is you don't have to choose just one.

Just use the one you like at this time and change out the bezel when you want a change. I have the pepsi, coke and black bezel. I switch them out once every 1-2 years.

One of the reasons this might be my favorite watch. It really is like owning a few different pieces. But I don’t have a black insert because I have a 116710LN.

Wife is next to me so I asked her! She says Pepsi pops more whereas coke is a bit more subtle. She likes both though and won’t decide... like dinner, everyday.

I prefer coke and bracelet so choose is easy for me.

That can get to you thinking about it l know. I like the way the 24 hr. hand seems to stand out and yet blends better with the cokes dial and bezel. The blue on the Pepsi seems to steal the show more to me but sure adds more color pop. Tough choice and you really can't go wrong here. I'd choose coke. You can always add and switch inserts as well so that may be another reason to go coke as the Pepsi seems to sell for a higher premium. But again, buy condition and seller as always. Look out for over polishing and Happy Hunting..

Yes it's great that with this reference you have the choice! For me, I'm biased as I have the Coke and think it looks fantastic on either bracelet.

Get all three. Super easy to change. One of the things I miss about that reference. Should have never sold it. In fact I still have a some inserts in the watch box.
