Insert envy. Killer collection, fuschia and all blue are what I would consider top of the class. I like how you have the others mounted already.

- I never considered coke or black. Root Beer on the other hand ... ;-)

I started this thread of April 2013 because I am obsessed with the Pepsi GMT- all vintages. This thread now has 73,256 views.... Congrats to my fellow Pepsi owners.

This is a Pepsi only thread...

Just picked up a ref 16700 circa March 1997, full set. The bezel is just starting to fade out and the lumes are staring to develop a nice creamy patina. Was quite lucky to stumble across this one at a reasonable price.
