I don’t know if you are aware but your pepsi insert is aftermarket / fake.

Good catch! Sucks that the OP was not aware of this and has some recourse if they sold him this watch without disclosing aftermarket parts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Yes this pepsi insert is definitely not Rolex authentic. The font is weird and numbers not straight.

And a serif insert should look like this.

Just watched Austin Daniels latest video. He mentions that there are 2 correct blue/red versions of the bezel for this reference. The skinny vs fat 2.

Exactly so prior to 2004 or so you have the fat font serif bezel and then after you have the non serif slim insert (that are the same as service insert).

If 2005 your coke insert is period correct (non serif)

There are many variations.
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=462474 The 20, 22, and 6s do look weird, among other things. No biggie. Just find a genuine insert and replace it.
