Icon5 Which is more flashy Sub LV or pepsi gmt

My vote is for pepsi due to red and blue color bezel and also the way the edge of the rotating bezel grabs light.

I think the green stands out more because of the rarity of green on a watch. It gets more attention.

Well i have a Pepsi, but i dont think green is a flashy colour anyway,in fact i am not a lover of Rolex green at all. So on that basis, the blue and red really stand out.

Don't know about flashy and don't know if it is because it's new...but the new ceramic LV sub would get my vote for more cool.

Pepsi stands out more for me when I see others with it on. You need to have an objective view.

i'd say the lv because green is a more unusual color IMO for an accessory. however, all non-ceramic stainless steel sport rolexes don't stand out much at all--regardless of the color.

I have both, and have never had either noticed.

IMHO there's nothing flashy about SS - one of the reasons why I love them!

My sentiments exactly.

FWIW my mom thinks it's the same watch.

No one (except the odd watch guy) has noticed my pepsi.

I think it's a pretty understated watch and there are so many other brands copying the look of the rolex sport watch nobody bats an eyelid (which I like!)

Neither are flashy man. It's part of the reason I think they are so popular. Do I hear an echo in here????
