Thank you all very much!

Hahahahaha, yes, we've heard all the jokes. We still hear them, daily.

This is a pic a year ago when he got out of hospital after the big accident.

I'll spare you our ugly mugshots, but note that I'm wearing a thick hoodie (I'm always cold) and he's shirtless next to me.

The first ray of sunshine, the shirt is off. His mom and sister say he was like that all his life.

Oscarpapa, nothing wrong with dad body! Nobody likes to cuddle on stone lol. Husband has enough padding, hahaha.

I'll post some more Tudor pic for those who asked.

Thank you again! I'm really happy about the coke, but I'm truly more happy for him, as he refused to have a new watch. I need some of his modesty...

His wrist is around 7.5, mine around 6.25 for comparison.

Here are a few more pics of the pepsi in daylight.
Clasp photo included and the height/thickness.

I was surprised how tall it was, but I'm used to SD4K, so it didn't feel much taller on my wrist.

I think it's a very well balanced watch.

Hahahaha! Right! And he wouldn't have, had i not just brought it home, like the last watch i got him.

Even twisting his arm resulted in "no, i don't need a new watch."

Who doesn't need a new watch? :D It's like not needed a new pair of shoes and we all know there's never enough

I think you should try the jubilee bracelet on your coke gmt. It will look perfect in this combo.

I absolutely agree. I know there are posts here with what model bracelet to get, but if you have it handy, I'd appreciate it!!

Sure I’m glad to help.

I assume your 2004 coke should be F serial without lug hole?

You need the jubilee 62510H with end link 502T. Try it out and you won’t regret.

FYI, this jubilee can be installed on most of the other 5 digits Rolex 40mm size sport model with 20mm lug widths. I used it on my explorer 2, gmt, YM.

congrats. But it should be Coke & Coke instead of Pepsi & Coke, right?

Yes, the bezel on the Tudor is a lot darker. Coke and Pepsi-ish

And yep, you guessed it right the other day :D

That's very helpful, thanks. He has the same wrist size as me and it wears really well size-wise on him in my opinion.

Yes, absolutely agree. Perfect size on his wrist. A touch too big on mine :)

I tried talking him into a Deep Sea or SD43, i'm sure it would have looked awesome on him too, but nope, no Rolex for him.

Not yet *evil grin*

I'll get him there

Oh, the Tudor GMT is suppose to be Blue/Red?! I didn't know that. It certainly looks a lot darker.

Very nice. Looking at a Tudor GMT Pepsi myself. If any ADs in NYC ever get them. Waiting to see the new pepsi GMT at my AD store soon.
