Crown is unscrewed. You'll get moisture inside.

But before anything else, i think i need to see it mounted on a bracelet first.

Or is it a pocket watch?

Bas - you have hit upon a new way to make the Daytona even more popular!

I do see some truth in your humor, though. All the drivers who compete in endurance racing like Rolex24, 12h@Sebring, Le Mans, WEC, etc. are time zone hoppers as well as Daytona lovers. I’d wager that many of the civilian owners are in same boat (er, car).

The existing Daytona Bezel is fairly obsolete for practical use in measuring speed or units. But a rotating Pepsi bezel plus a GMT running train added to the chrono and a 24hr. hand would be a great result.

Yes...I know it needs a mock-up but you have the parts right there...go bold young man!

I recently bought one of these new style Pepsis you've got here from a place called Horology House, and I am looking forward to receiving it 2 day express.

Someone has already offered me a MK 5 Batgirl if I give them this watch and $5000.

Is it worth it?

I believe this is a uniquely Bas 2020 Preview Release.



It's just all about health, happiness & family. The rest are just necessary inconvenience we have to deal with.

Just imagine, it's a Daytona/Pepsi. I think will be no less than 5 years.

A GMT Chronograph, Rolex is copying Seiko.
Skeleton, Rolex is copying Zenith,
Crown on the left, Rolex thought about putting this watch on your right wrist.
This watch will change the world we know.
