I wear my 16700 black, but have been thinking of the Pepsi Insert as well, because I also have a Sub (they look similar). Before owning the Sub, definitely black.

great watch, very versatile but I am a Pepsi guy!

A_Tone · 2 September 2015, 07:11 AM

When I think GMT i think Pepsi. When I think black bezel I think sub or SD.

blue lion · 17 November 2015, 02:26 AM

Pepsi, it has more personality

Frosty · 17 November 2015, 06:39 AM

I like both and switch when the urge strikes me. I do not think black when I think sub, because my bezel insert is blue!

vette boy 52 · 17 November 2015, 08:13 PM

Pepsi or Coke. I like the black but it makes the watch look more like a Sub

rolexnub · 16 January 2016, 08:45 AM

Pepsi for me.

syahriltaher · 22 January 2016, 05:32 PM

Pepsi

Eric Chan · 2 September 2015, 12:19 PM

Pepsi

BNA/LION · 2 September 2015, 12:56 PM

If both is not an option I guess I would go black if you don't have a black sub but pepsi is awesome too!

Runnin' Rebel · 2 September 2015, 01:07 PM

Love the Black. Coke is a close 2nd

ducatiti · 5 September 2015, 02:05 PM

89 Pepsi; 20 Black

Wow! May just keep wearing my GMT as a pepsi longer :)

TimeOnHand · 6 September 2015, 10:34 AM

This month for me... all black!

Pepsi

ducatiti · 8 September 2015, 06:35 AM

Landslide!

Boopie · 8 September 2015, 09:10 AM

Pepsi. It is iconic and unique to the GMT.

luvsub · 8 September 2015, 01:16 PM

pepsi

ducatiti · 11 September 2015, 02:53 PM

Called SF Rolex Center and was advised that a coke insert would be $100 installed and they will keep my old insert. Is this the current price nowadays?

I got mine for $100CAD ~ $75USD. Take the bezel insert off first yourself or have it removed by an independent watchmaker.
Then, take it to RSC. They can't keep what's not there.
That way, I got to keep my old coke when I purchased a new pepsi.

BUT would there be a possibility they would deny service as it's missing a part??!

I guess one could lie and say it got 'lost'

dr3ziz · 11 September 2015, 03:13 PM

Definitely pepsi

ducatiti · 16 November 2015, 11:30 AM

I'm back with the black insert now. I think I will stick with this for a while now.

Joearch · 16 November 2015, 12:16 PM

I voted black because I think the Pepsi clashes. I like the coke bezel best.

rdragon · 16 November 2015, 12:34 PM

OP - how often do you swap inserts?

In twenty years, probably the fourth time I changed the insert. But then again, I only learned how to do it last year.

How about you?

I haven't yet. I just learned it very recently myself and just practiced taking bezel off and putting back on. Still trying to read up more on how often one can swap without it affecting bezel (warp or fit?) and insert (sounds like it can start to stretch?). Wondering at what point either starts to get compromised.

Take a guess. LOL
