No, the GMT Master models have been produced with the 'root beer' bezel for years; I think the first was in the late '60s. Of course, the GMT started out with the red and blue dial (known as Pepsi) and also (later) the black bezel. The two tone models reference 1675/3, then 16753, then 16713, and now 116713 are the two tone GMT models and up until the 116713 were produced with this two tone bronze/brown (or all brown, occasionally) bezel. The currently produced 116713LN is produced with a black bezel with gold numbers and a black dial. The root beer (1675/3, 16753, or 16713) is the only GMT with a brown or burgundy dial -- though some special iced dials were also made.

I'm no expert, though, so I've probably slipped up somewhere.
