Pepsi or Coke?

I'm a southern boy, and have always preferred Coke over Pepsi, when we're talking about coke (pop, soda, soft drink). Drives me nuts when I roll up to a drive through and ask for a coke and they say, "is Pepsi ok?" It's a southern thing.

Having said all of this when we're talking GMT, do you prefer Pepsi or Coke. I lean towards Coke.

I'd give Pepsi a slight edge, but either are fantastic (especially on a Jubilee).

In blind taste tests more people prefer Pepsi, but they buy more Coke.

On a GMT I prefer Pepsi.

If I'm going to drink it then Coke.

I actually haven't drank soda in years but never cared for Pepsi and absolutely loved Coke!!

On the GMT I really like the red/blue combo but I like the red/black a lot too, maybe just not quite as much.

Drinking it, has to be Coke...Pepsi isn't worth the calories to bother with.

Wearing it...slight edge to pepsi...at least today. Could be different tomorrow

Pepsi tastes better than Coke, but Coke looks better than Pepsi.

Never had a Coke as yet......any of the GMTs that have come my way have always been Pepsis....will maybe give it a try! Presumably a Coke would go onto a 16700?

Coke is refined and worn by gentlemen of taste and discretion.

PS Did I mention I have a coke.

I see it as one of the most masculine Rolex wristwatch ever.
