YG Pepsi GMT!

Please Rolex, give us the Pepsi in YG. This one will be very tempting indeed!

I, for one, would have much preferred it in SS...but if you like YG I can understand your wish.

Yes, yes yes! Or at least release some WG now! I'd like to see some natural lighting photographs.

There is already a yellow gold pepsi referred to as the "Patriot" but the bezel is comprised of sapphires and rubies. I have wondered what an older gold GMT would look like with a pepsi insert and why no one does it. The numbers being in silver maybe?

Just don't think a YG Pepsi would look right, maybe all blue bezel. The all blue works well on the YG sub. I don't see that happening. Rolex is more likely to bring back the Root Beer in TT and YG.

Yeah the 116748. You'd probably be able to buy two WG for the price of this YG.

They will arrive in Belgium November-December (I think it's marketing for Christmas. Rolex IS clever indeed )

Funny... The blue and red gems are misplaced on that watch for true GMT functionality.

More likely a YG would have Root Beer, no?

I for one would love to see a maxi case, ceramic root beer, preferably in TT for the ultimate nostalgia (and the fact it would be a more attainable piece, for me anyway)
