Incoming... yes, again_Part II (Pepsi WG is here!)
Hey TRF! As promised, here it is. Let's get this show on the road!
Special thanks to Mr. Dan Pierce and San Francisco man "Sea-Dweller" who kindly answered a few of my questions before jumping in. The box.... The watch.... [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ So by now you might be like WTF  where is the "Pepsi WG"??? What I meant of course was Pepsi while Wearing Gold.  To make up for my deception, here are some more pics! Here is the real box this 16710 came with (I like my full sets) and additional black insert. A little land, sea and air action.... More pics to come...

I pulled the trigger on this soon to be classic Pepsi while visiting a watch dealer in downtown Miami during lunch earlier this week. I had been considering a "vintage" watch for a while now and the Pepsi fit the bill and will go along great with my 718 (currently at RSC NY having a replacement crystal installed after being chipping)...
A 14 year old watch was as "vintage" as I could go. I am at heart a modern watch guy. Lume is pretty strong on this baby...

After acquiring this one, I have two more watches on the want list before calling it "done" (for now I suppose...):
1) I've decided I want the WG Sub to fill the "sub" gap in my collection. The blue dial is wonderful in person. I am not going to wait or want (heh heh I hope) the WG GMT Pepsi. Hopefully the sub will arrive later this year. 2) An annual or perpetual calendar on a leather strap. This one will probably not be a rolex. Who knows when this one will come.... Be well folks and thanks again for all the great comments.
