Back to the classics. Which one would you choose?

My love for the classic rolexes is back. I have managed to source two great pieces in very good condition both D series. They have similar price tags but I can only afford one. So which one would you choose? (Pics are older and show my wrist but not the actual watches for sale)
Thanks for your input :)

There is nothing quite like the pepsi. Although the sub is a more versatile watch I think. I like the 24 hour function on the GMT as well. If thats something you use then that could sway you.

Easy...GMT. With the bezels and bracelets, it's six watches in one.

Something about that Pepsi really pulls me in. I love it, and voted for it!

I've had both before, and if I had to choose one now it would be the 16710

Just never liked the two-colored bezel. Easy choice for the sub.

Both would be ideal but I voted 16710 because the coke bezel GMT was the first Rolex I ever purchased.
