Pepsi bling bezel! How much?

[Watchdog]

What is a great price on a Rolex "bling" bezel for a GMTII? You know, the one with rubies and saphires that screams "look at me."

Or what is a great price for a used GMTII watch with this original Pepsi bezel in precious stones? Can't imagine there is tremendous demand . . . Thanks for your input.

I would like to find out this info as well. How much for just the bling bezel? Does anyone know? Are their any good aftermarket gmt sapphires rubie bezels out their???

There is quite a large discrepancy in the MSRP of the pieces.

A YG GMT with no stones is MSRP $25550 while the one with is $67750

For new expect 20% or more off the MSRP. For used... depends how badly the seller wants to sell it!



Of course... if you are talking about SS, I wouldn't bother putting rare stones on a SS watch personally. And I have no idea of the official MSRP.

Ive seen some in the past few months. My friends friend has one and he said he bough it from london for around 1800 USD. It looked pretty good to me but the bezel did not turn as smooth an original bezel.

There's one on ebay for a couple of grand.

These have a very depressed market today.

They were selling for $80,000 in Feb 2008, today $45,000 or thereabouts. (Tokyo prices)

What is 45,000 Tokyo in us dollars???

WOW! What a difference in price for the GMT with stones!! I don't know how anyone could justify the difference in price.
